Study Summary

RATIONALE: Comparing results of diagnostic procedures, such as molecular marker profiling, done before and after chemotherapy, may help doctors predict a patient's response to treatment and help plan the best treatment. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well molecular marker profiling of axillary lymph nodes works in predicting response in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer who are undergoing chemotherapy followed by surgery.

Primary Outcome

Determine if an intraoperative positron emission tomography (PET) probe can improve breast conservation rates in patients treated initially with neoadjuvant chemotherapy by at least 2%.

Interventions

  • PROCEDURE PET (positron emission tomography)
