Evaluate The Accuracy Of Breast MRI Biopsy In Diagnosing A Complete Tumor Response For Some Women Following Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy For Breast Cancer

Summary

The purpose of this study is to test the ability of a breast MRI biopsy to accurately diagnose a complete tumor response to the neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) that the patient just finished. Numerous studies have shown that MRI has the highest accuracy for diagnosing a complete tumor response. The investigator wants to see if in a certain group of women who's breast cancer is no longer visible on the post-treatment MRI that the biopsy specimens from a MRI guided biopsy will accurately diagnose a complete tumor response to treatment which may in the future make breast surgery unnecessary in some women.

Inclusion Criteria:

Women age 18 years or older
Confirmed histologic diagnosis of operable HER2 overexpressing (ER<10%, PR<10%, and HER2 2+ or FISH amplified) OR triple negative (ER<10%, PR<10%, and HER2 0/1+ or 2+/FISH not amplified) OR ER positive invasive ductal or invasive lobular breast cancer including MSKCC pathology confirmation

Tumor site amenable to MRI guided biopsy as determined by the radiologist
Definitive surgery being performed at MSKCC within within 0-60 days of completing NAC
ECOG performance status score of 0 to â‰¤ 2 and or KPS performance status score of 80% to 100%
Women of childbearing potential (WOCBP) must not be pregnant.
Women must not be breastfeeding
