First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 15, 2026 · Updated 27 times

Summary

This study looks at a less invasive technique called target axillary dissection (TAD) to check if cancer has spread to lymph nodes after chemotherapy in people with locally advanced breast cancer. The goal is to see if TAD is accurate enough to replace more extensive lymph node removal. About 162 participants will be observed to measure how often TAD misses cancer that is still present.
