Breast Cancer Trial, Recruiting

Written by an AI model from ClinicalTrials.gov eligibility criteria and checked on a sample basis. Please confirm against the original criteria.

Who might be able to join this trial:

• You must be 18 years old or older.
• You have been diagnosed with a specific type of early-stage breast cancer (stage T1 or T2 invasive ductal or lobular), regardless of hormone receptor or HER2 status.
• Your lymph nodes under the arm feel normal to the touch, and an ultrasound scan shows no more than two suspicious lymph nodes in that area.
• A biopsy (tissue sample) has confirmed that cancer has spread to at least one lymph node under the arm.
• You are generally able to carry out daily activities and care for yourself — your doctor will assess this using a standard performance scale (confirm with trial site).
• You are willing and able to read, understand, and sign the consent form for the trial.

Who may not be able to join:

• You have previously had surgery on the lymph nodes under the arm on the same side as the breast cancer, including a sentinel lymph node biopsy.
• Your cancer has already spread to other parts of the body (distant metastases).
• You have previously had radiotherapy treatment to the lymph nodes under the arm.
• You have already received chemotherapy, hormone therapy, or other treatments before surgery (neoadjuvant therapy).
• If a blue dye injection is planned as part of the procedure, you cannot join if you have a known allergy or sensitivity to certain blue dyes or similar substances used in the process (confirm with trial site).
• You are unable to give your own informed consent to participate.

Important: Always verify eligibility with the trial site directly before applying.
