Conditions

Summary

Breast cancer is the most common malignancy in women worldwide. Patients with breast cancer are often diagnosed at later stages and have a strong desire for breast conservation, necessitating neoadjuvant chemotherapy. Tumors of different molecular subtypes and individual variations among patients lead to significant differences in treatment efficacy. Precise assessment of patients' responses to treatment regimens is imperative in advancing prognosis of breast cancer. In this study, 58 patients diagnosed with breast cancer and scheduled for neoadjuvant therapy will be recruited. Patient-derived organoids from their tumor biopsies will be utilized to evaluate the sensitivity of chemotherapy regimen. These drugs primarily include Doxorubicin, Carboplatin, Cyclophosphamide, Paclitaxel, as well as targeted therapies such as Herceptin and Pertuzumab.

Plain Language Summary

Simplified for easier understanding

This study looks at whether testing cancer tissue in the lab (by growing mini-tumors called organoids) can help doctors predict which chemotherapy drugs will work best for breast cancer patients before surgery. The goal is to personalize treatment so patients get chemo that's more likely to shrink their tumor. **You may be eligible if...** - You are a woman between 18 and 70 years old - You have been diagnosed with early-stage breast cancer (stages I to IIIA) with a tumor at least 2 cm in size - Your cancer has not spread to distant parts of the body - You have not received any prior cancer treatment - Your overall health is good (able to carry out daily activities) - Your liver and kidney function are within acceptable limits **You may NOT be eligible if...** - You have already received treatment for breast cancer - You have inflammatory breast cancer or cancer that cannot be surgically removed - You have cancer in both breasts or in multiple areas of one breast - You are not a suitable candidate for chemotherapy before surgery Talk to your doctor to see if this trial is right for you.

Interventions

PROCEDUREBiopsy

Before initiating neoadjuvant therapy, patients diagnosed with breast cancer undergo a tumor biopsy. The tissue obtained from the biopsy is utilized to establish organoids and conduct drug testing.
