Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This pilot clinical trial studies light-scattering spectroscopy in finding disease in patients with stage II-III breast cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as light-scattering spectroscopy, may help find and diagnose breast cancer

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: light-scattering spectroscopy
N/A

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To evaluate whether light-scattering spectroscopy can reliably distinguish between two subject groups: those with clinical stage II or stage III breast cancer and those without breast cancer.

OUTLINE: Patients undergo light-scattering spectroscopy of the breast in addition to standard of care as it relates to screening for breast cancer or treatment of breast cancer.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Diagnostic (light-scattering spectroscopy)

Patients undergo light-scattering spectroscopy of the breast in addition to standard of care as it relates to screening for breast cancer or treatment of breast cancer.

Procedure: light-scattering spectroscopy
Undergo light-scattering spectroscopy

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcome Measures

  1. Accurate classifications of women with or without breast cancer [Up to 1 year]

    Exact binomial probabilities will be used.

  2. Utility of optical markers in distinguishing cancer involved breasts from normal breasts [Up to 1 year]

    Multivariate analyses will be used.
