Inclusion Criteria
  • Enrollment on the treatment phase of the I-SPY 2 TRIAL
  • Completed a standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen or assigned treatment on I-SPY 2 and planning definitive surgical resection. Participants who have discontinued assigned treatment on I-SPY 2, switched to standard of care, and have completed a standard neoadjuvant chemotherapy regimen are still considered eligible.
  • Pre-surgical imaging or clinical examination demonstrating residual disease in the breast. Participants with any extent of enhancement attributable to tumor on the pre-surgical MRI are eligible. No minimum extent of palpable tumor pre-surgery is required.
  • Willing to undergo bone marrow aspiration and blood specimen collection per protocol specifications
  • No clinical evidence of distant metastatic disease. Pre-chemotherapy staging scans are sufficient in the absence of any symptoms or subsequent clinical evidence suggesting distant metastases
  • Age 18 or over and are able to give informed consent
Exclusion Criteria
  • Individuals under the age of 18
  • Individuals who cannot understand and give informed consent. We will not be assessing decisional capacity; determination of ability to give informed consent will be at the discretion of the treating physician.
  • Pregnancy. Participants in the parent I-SPY 2 TRIAL are screened for pregnancy at enrollment and pregnancy is an exclusion criteria. No additional screening for pregnancy is required for participants enrolling on SURMOUNT. However if a study participant does become pregnant while on study or during the course of the 10 year follow-up, the study participant will remain on the study protocol and will not be withdrawn. Because this is an observational study and does not have a therapeutic component, there will be no increased risk to following a study participant through annual blood draws and medical information abstraction from the medical chart who may or may not become pregnant during the course of the follow-up period.
