Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
The breast tissue core biopsy will be subjected to whole genome sequencing and a Variant report prepared [Core biopsy collection 1 week prior to initiation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy];normal DNA (from blood) will be subjected to whole genome sequencing and a Variant report prepared [Blood collection prior to initiation of neoadjuvant chemotherapy]; Circulating Tumour Cells will be purified from pre- and post- treatment blood samples and analysed.[Post-chemotherapy blood sample will be taken a week after therapy completion; analysis of circulating tumour cells will then be made]
Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Following resection and standard diagnostic pathology assessment, any residual excess to diagnosis will be process for DNA extraction and sequenced.[At the completion of neo-adjuvant chemotherapy course, patient will undergo surgery (as standard of care); residual tumour excess to diagnostic requirement will be sequenced.]
