Target Recruitment
170
Inclusion Criteria
  • Histologic diagnosis of breast cancer with documentation of ER/PR/HER2 status
  • Radiographic evidence of stage IV extracranial diease having progressed past first line therapy in HR+/HER2- patients
  • Radiographic evidence of stage IV extracranial disease in TN and HER2+ patients
  • Age ≥ 18

  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status 0 to 2
  • Patients must be able to understand and the willingness to sign an informed consent for study procedures
  • Stated willingness to comply with all study procedures and availability for the duration of the study
Exclusion Criteria
  • Prior diagnosis or treatment of brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease
  • Patients with prior history of non-breast cancer malignancies should have no evidence of disease ≥ 2 years
  • Neurologic symptoms warranting standard screening brain MRI in the judgement of the treating physician at time of enrollment
  • Indications warranting brain MRI for other neurologic conditions at time of study entry
  • Contraindication towards MRI imaging with contrast
  • Chronic kidney disease stage IV or V or end stage renal disease

GroupInterventionDescription
Participants with TNBC (triple negative breast cancer)Magnetic Resonance ImagingParticipants will undergo a screening brain MRI. Patients will undergo a second brain MRI at first systemic progression or at 6 months whichever event occurs sooner.
Participants with Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) + Breast CancerMagnetic Resonance ImagingParticipants will undergo a screening brain MRI. Patients will undergo a second brain MRI at first systemic progression or at 6 months whichever event occurs sooner.
Participants with Hormone Receptor (HR) +Breast CancerMagnetic Resonance ImagingParticipants will undergo a screening brain MRI. Patients will undergo a second brain MRI at first systemic progression or at 6 months whichever event occurs sooner.
Primary Outcome Measures

Rate of brain metastasis by breast cancer subtype at 6 months or first systemic progression using MRI images.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Brain MetastasesBaseline
