Brief Summary

A pilot study of adult (≥ 18 years) women with stage II-III breast cancer who will receive preoperative chemotherapy prior to mastectomy. Patients will have real-time serum glycan profiling, expression of tissue MUC 1 oncoprotein isoforms to predict neoadjuvant chemotherapy response and additional mammography and HD PET/CT examinations to assess response. The investigators hypothesize that a functional tumor assessment utilizing high-definition positron emission tomography/computed tomography (HD PET/CT), real-time serum glycan profiling, and expression of tissue MUC 1 oncoprotein isoforms will predict neoadjuvant chemotherapy response in breast cancer patients.

Detailed Description

This is a non-randomized clinical trial pilot study. Consenting adult (≥ 18 years) women with stage II-III breast cancer undergoing will receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy with a standard ACT regimen prior to mastectomy. Prior to beginning chemotherapy, patients will receive a baseline mammogram, breast HD PET/CT, and blood draw. Not more than 7 days prior to the second cycle of chemotherapy, patients will have both HD PET/CT and diagnostic mammography images taken to assess early response to treatment. Patients will have two additional mammography and HD PET/CT examinations: one after the first cycle of chemotherapy, and another upon completion of the last cycle of chemotherapy but before mastectomy. The investigators will collect data on the size (maximum diameter, estimated volume) and 18FDG uptake (SUV) of the known primary breast cancer on HD PET/CT. Blood will be sampled from patients at 12 separate time points during the study for glycan analysis. At least 3 ml will be taken with each blood draw. The first blood draw will be taken when the patient agrees to enroll in the study. The second blood draw will be taken prior to the first cycle of chemotherapy. Thereafter, blood will be drawn for serum glycan analysis after each cycle of chemotherapy is completed. After the patient undergoes mastectomy, tissue will be collected for MUC-1 assay and two additional blood draws will be taken.

Eligibility Criteria

Inclusion Criteria

• Patient must sign informed consent to participate in the study.
• Patient must be ≥ 18 years of age.
• Histologic diagnosis of invasive breast cancer(ductal or lobular)
• Stage II or III breast cancer and considered a candidate for curative mastectomy.
• Selected mastectomy for surgical option of treatment.
• Patient must agree to receive standard or dose-dense adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, and taxane-based chemotherapy given preoperatively.
• Patient must have the following preoperative laboratory values confirmed within 28 days prior to registration: Creatinine ≤ 1.5 times ULN. Platelets ≥ 90,000/mm3. White blood count ≥ 1,500/mm3. PT/PTT ≤ the institution ULN. Patients of child-bearing potential must have a negative urine or serum pregnancy test.
• If a patient is a cancer survivor, the patient must have undergone potentially curative therapy for all prior malignancies, with no evidence of prior malignancy for at least 5 years (except for effectively treated basal cell or squamous cell carcinoma of the skin, or carcinoma-in-situ of the cervix treated by surgery alone).
• The primary breast tumor must be detectable by mammogram at the time of diagnosis
• Estimated cardiac ejection fraction ≥ 50% by echocardiogram or MUGA
• ECOG performance status 0-1.

Exclusion Criteria

• Non-invasive breast cancer, benign breast disease, or tumor histology other than stage II or stage III invasive ductal carcinoma, invasive lobular carcinoma, or mixed ductal and lobular carcinoma.
• The patient has known distant metastatic disease.
• The patient wishes to pursue breast conservation.
• The patient is male.
• The patient is receiving preoperative chemotherapy other than adriamycin, cyclophosphamide, and a taxane (ACT) in standard or dose-dense fashion.
• The patient is pregnant or breast feeding.
• The primary tumor is not visualized by mammogram at the time of diagnosis.
• The patient's estimated cardiac ejection fraction is <50% by echocardiogram or MUGA.
• The patient has a documented intravenous contrast allergy or iodine allergy.
• Her-2/neu positive patients by IHC or FISH who receive trastuzumab neoadjuvantly; patients who are Her-2/neu positive but elect not to receive trastuzumab neoadjuvantly are still eligible for participation.

• Minimum Eligible Age: 18 Years
• Eligible Sex: FEMALE
