Biopsy-site-marker in Breast Cancer

University of Oklahoma

Start Date

7/9/2026

Completion Date

7/1/2030

Summary

The purpose of this study is to explore pro-metastatic changes in breast cancer (BC) associated with the stiffness of biopsy site markers. This study aims to determine whether the stiffness of a biopsy site marker promotes inflammatory changes in breast cancer and to evaluate whether there is a relationship between biopsy site marker stiffness and inflammation.

Detailed Description

This prospective study aims to evaluate whether anti-inflammatory and pro-metastatic changes at the post-biopsy site are associated with the type of biopsy-site marker used, with particular focus on marker stiffness. Tissue samples will be collected from breast cancer patients who received a biopsy-site marker at the time of diagnosis.
