Scientists search for clues in breast Cancer's response to chemo

NCT ID NCT02022202

Summary

This study aimed to understand why some breast cancers are destroyed by standard chemotherapy while others are not. Researchers analyzed tumor samples and genetic information from 140 patients with invasive breast cancer who were receiving standard pre-surgery chemotherapy. The goal was to identify genetic changes in tumors that could help develop better, more targeted cancer therapies in the future.
