Summary

RATIONALE: Changing the genes in laboratory mice to create a living model of human breast cancer may help doctors learn more about breast cancer.

PURPOSE: This research study is developing mouse models of breast cancer using tissue samples that were previously collected from women with breast cancer.

Conditions

Interventions

OTHER

laboratory biomarker analysis

Tissue samples will either be collected at the time of medically indicated surgical procedures or through research core biopsies. A sample of urine will also be obtained. Blood will be collected via venipuncture and lymphocytes (mononuclear cells) separated and processed as a source of normal DNA and normal cells.

OTHER

medical chart review

patient chart review will occur in conjunction with patient data collection for final analyses.
