Study Population

Patients over the age of 18 who will undergo neoadjuvant treatment for high-risk, early breast cancer

You may qualify if:

  • The participant or a legally authorized representative must provide study-specific informed consent prior to study entry.
  • The participant must be ≥ 18 years of age.
  • ECOG performance status 0 or 1.
  • Histologically confirmed invasive carcinoma of the breast.
  • Planned neoadjuvant therapy which includes cytotoxic chemotherapy.
  • Tumor size ≥ 2.1 cm in greatest diameter.
  • Unifocal or multifocal cancer documented to be the same histologic clinical subtype.
  • Clinically node positive or if node negative, any one of the following:
  • TNBC or HER2+ subtype
  • HR+/HER2-negative with at least one of the following:
  • i. High tumor grade (G3) ii. Ki67 index of 20% or higher iii. High genomic risk (Oncotype DX® (ODX) Breast Recurrence Score of \> 25, MammaPrint® High, etc.)
  • Willing and able to comply with the study requirements, which includes the collection of a total of 34 cc (2.5 Tablespoons) of blood for each research blood draw.
  • Available residual tissue from diagnostic biopsy from the breast or an involved ipsilateral lymph node for submission to create a bespoke ctDNA assay.

You may not qualify if:

  • Definitive clinical or radiologic evidence of metastatic disease.
  • Initiated neoadjuvant therapy for current breast cancer diagnosis.
  • Synchronous diagnosis of another invasive cancer, other than this breast cancer, except for non-melanoma skin cancers.
  • Completed all therapy (including endocrine therapy) \<5 years ago for any previous invasive solid organ malignancy (with exception of non-melanoma skin cancers) including prior breast cancer. Individuals with a prior history of noninvasive (in situ) carcinomas may participate if they have received definitive treatment.
  • Completed all therapy for any previous hematologic malignancy \< 5 years ago.
  • Multicentric or contralateral invasive breast cancers.
  • Known pregnancy at time of enrollment.
  • Prior solid organ transplant.
  • Prior allogeneic hematopoietic stem cell transplant.
