Molecular Analysis of Breast Cancer
Not Recruiting
Trial ID: NCT00569049
Purpose
This is a research-based study that is looking at the biologic features of breast tissue,
lymph node tissue, or blood in order to study breast cancer development growth, and spread.
Through tissue and/or blood samples we hope to gain further knowledge and understanding of
how to improve diagnosis and treatment of breast cancer by identifying the molecular markers
that predict clinical outcome and response to therapy.
