A plain-English reading of the study's rules. Only the study team can confirm whether you qualify.

What this trial studies

This is an observational cohort of women presenting to Memorial Sloan Kettering sites with a suspicious breast finding undergoing biopsy or with a new breast cancer who are surgical candidates. Participants provide blood and tissue samples as well as complete questionnaires during their routine care, and data are followed through medical records. No investigational treatments are given; participation involves only specimen collection and surveys tied to standard clinical visits. The goal is to correlate demographic, clinical, and biologic features with cancer risks and outcomes over time.
