NCT02449824 · Status: COMPLETED · Type: OBSERVATIONAL · Enrollment: 40

No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Firstly, the investigators aim to show that breast tumour blood flow, measured as part of a standard MRI examination, decreases at the earliest stage of neoadjuvant chemotherapy in those patients who go on to respond to treatment. Importantly, the investigators will also show that blood flow does not decrease in those patients who fail to respond.

Secondly, the investigators will test whether the decrease in tumour blood flow over the whole course of neoadjuvant chemotherapy can predict the response of the tumour measured at the time of surgery.
