In my previous research which evaluated over 600 patients from a prospective institutional data base, about 64% of women with a new diagnosis of breast cancer presented with locally advanced disease, including clinically positive axillary adenopathy. Our data also suggests that similar to African American women, triple negative breast cancer (TNBC) is common in Nigeria (43.5%).\n\nThe overall goal of the project is to evaluate the ability of existing technology in Nigeria to safely de-escalate axillary surgery in the management of locally advanced breast cancer patients. Currently, the standard-of-care for breast cancer patients with palpable axillary adenopathy (clinical N1 disease without evidence of distant metastases) at presentation in Nigeria is neoadjuvant systemic therapy followed by a modified radical mastectomy. This includes a complete axillary lymph node dissection (ALND). However, data from high-income countries however show that up to 85% of patients initially presenting with cN1 disease can be converted to cN0 (i.e. no palpable adenopathy) following NAC. These patients can thus safely undergo sentinel lymph node biopsy (SLNB) with up to 50% of these having pathologic complete response in the lymph nodes. In this patient population, both methylene blue and radio-isotope localization with Tc-99 sulphur colloid are required to ensure adequate performance of the SLNB to stage the axilla(i.e. false negative rate ≤10%). Although widely available in high-income countries, radio-isotope localization is not readily available in Nigeria. This project will explore an alternative to dual agent SLNB localization using readily available resources and multi-disciplinary collaboration in a lower-income environment. De-escalation of axillary surgery in high-income countries has significantly decreased operative morbidity and improved patient reported outcomes without compromising survival. However, context specific research and data from resource limited environments is needed to translate the benefit of de-escalation to sub-Saharan Africa.",[57,58],"Breast Cancer","Axilla; Breast",[60,61,62,63],"neoadjuvant","de-escalation","breast cancer","axillary lymph node staging","NOT_YET_RECRUITING","2024-08-21",{"date":67,"type":68},"2024-08-22","ACTUAL",{"date":70,"type":51},"2025-11-01",{"date":72,"type":51},"2027-05-31",{"name":5,"class":6}]
