Study Summary

This trial will collect tissue and either blood or a rectal swab from patients who are already scheduled for a standard procedure. There will be no follow-up appointments, but researchers will track the patients' health outcomes.

Who is the study for?
This trial is for adults over 18 with breast cancer, including carcinoma in situ or invasive types, who can consent to participate. They must be scheduled for surgical tumor removal, vascular access device placement before neoadjuvant therapy, or neurosurgical resection of a brain metastasis from primary breast cancer.Check my eligibility
What is being tested?
The study involves collecting tissue during standard surgery, a one-time blood draw, and an optional rectal swab for biome analysis. The follow-up consists only of reviewing medical records to track recurrence, metastases, or death.See study design
What are the potential side effects?
Since the trial involves non-invasive sample collection during procedures patients are already undergoing and chart reviews without additional interventions, there are no direct side effects associated with this trial.
