Brief Summary
To compare the kinetics and efficacy of two functionally different diagnostic agents, Lymphoseek (CD206 receptor targeted) and 99mTc-Sulfur Colloid (SC) (Sulfur Colloid non-specific mapping agent) in intraoperative lymphatic mapping (ILM) and Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy (SLNB).

Outcome Measures
Primary Outcomes (2)
Injection Site Clearance for Lymphoseek and 99mTc-Sulfur Colloid (SC).
The rate of injection site clearance is the time from radiotracer injection to peak SLN radioactive level. Injection clearance rates will be determined by planar SPECT imaging and by SPECT/CT. Subjects will undergo standard sequential planar imaging at 30 to 60 seconds intervals until the sentinel lymph node is seen. Once a sentinel node is located, a SPECT/CT will be performed for higher resolution imaging in transaxial, coronal, and sagittal planes.
2 hours
Sentinel Lymph Node Uptake Rate
SLN uptake rates will be determined by planar SPECT (single-photon emission computerized tomography) imaging and by SPECT/CT (CT-computed tomography). Gamma counts will be obtained at the injection site by standard sequential planar imaging at 30 to 60 seconds intervals until the sentinel lymph node is seen. Once a sentinel node is located, a SPECT/CT will be performed for higher resolution imaging in transaxial, coronal, and sagittal planes. Figures showing the percent of peak activity in the node versus time will be constructed for each radiopharmaceutical. The average uptake rate for each radiopharmaceutical will be computed and the following test will be conducted using a two-sample t-test at a two-sided α=0.05 (one-sided α=0.025) level of significance: H0 (null hypothesis): µLS ≤ µSC vs. HA (alternative hypothesis): µLS \> µSC, (µLS is the average SLN uptake rate of Lymphoseek) (µSC is the average SLN uptake rate of 99mTc Sulfur Colloid).

Study Arms (2)
Lymphoseek
ACTIVE COMPARATORLymphoseek (technetium Tc 99m tilmanocept) Injection is indicated for lymphatic mapping with a hand-held gamma counter to assist in the localization of lymph nodes draining a primary tumor site in patients with breast cancer or melanoma and guiding sentinel lymph node biopsy using a hand-held gamma counter in patients with clinically node negative squamous cell carcinoma of the oral cavity.
Sulfur Colloid
ACTIVE COMPARATORTechnetium Tc 99m Sulfur Colloid Injection is a radioactive diagnostic agent indicated for use as follows: In adults, to assist in the: * localization of lymph nodes draining a primary tumor in patients with * breast cancer or malignant melanoma when used with a hand-held gamma counter. * evaluation of peritoneovenous (LeVeen) shunt patency in adults.
Interventions
Subjects will receive a single intradermal injection of Lymphoseek followed by SPECT imaging conducted in two phases: initial sequential planar imaging at 30 to 60 second intervals for the first 60 minutes and repeated at 90 minutes and 120 minutes, as indicated, for identification of the SLN followed by SPECT/CT for higher resolution imaging in transaxial, coronal, and sagittal planes. Subjects will then proceed to surgery for lymphatic mapping. Lymphoseek positivity will be based upon radioactivity counts derived from the application of the handheld gamma probe ex vivo. Tumor resection or mastectomy will be performed according to standard procedures.

Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- The subject must be female and 18 years of age or older.
- The subject must be a preoperative clinical Tis, T1, T2, T3, T4, as well as clinical N0 and clinical M0 breast cancer
- The subject must have a diagnosis of primary breast cancer.
- The subject must be a candidate for surgical intervention, either with lumpectomy and SLNB or with mastectomy and SLNB, as the treatment of her breast cancer.
- The subject must have an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status of Grade 0 - 2
- The subject must provide written informed consent with Health Insurance Portability and Accountability Act (HIPAA) authorization before participating in the study
You may not qualify if:

- The subject has a known hypersensitivity to vital blue dye (VBD) in a case where vital blue dye was planned for use during SLNB.
- The subject has a positive pregnancy test or is lactating.
- The subject has had prior surgery to the indicated breast or axilla.
