Summary

This is a multicenter translational study to understand therapeutic resistance in patients undergoing standard chemotherapy for triple negative breast cancer.

In the neoadjuvant setting, biopsy tissue samples from primary tumor will be collected and banked before the start of chemotherapy and after the completion of the treatment (post-chemotherapy and at the time of surgery). In the metastatic setting, tissue samples from metastatic lesions will be collected and banked before the start of chemotherapy and at the time of tumor progression. Additionally, blood samples will be drawn before treatment initiation (baseline) and at different time points during treatment. All samples will be stored in the Biological Resource Repository.

Conditions

Interventions

PROCEDURE

Needle core biopsies

No investigational products will be administered to subjects as part of this translational research study. Needle core biopsies will be done to collect tumor samples. A taxane-based regimen will be administered as per the standard of care at each treating institution. Tissue samples from primary tumors will be collected and banked before the start of chemotherapy, after chemotherapy and at the time of surgery. Additionally, blood samples will be drawn before treatment initiation (baseline) and at different time points during treatment and stored in the tissue biobank.

PROCEDURE

Needle core biopsies of metastatic lesion

No investigational products will be administered to subjects as part of this translational research study. Needle core biopsies will be done to collect metastasis tumor samples. Chemotherapy will be administered as per the standard of care at each treating institution. Tissue samples from metastatic tumors lesions will be collected and banked before the start of chemotherapy and at the time of progression. Additionally, blood samples will be drawn before treatment initiation (baseline) and at different time points during treatment and stored in the tissue biobank.
