About this trial

The study is a single arm, nonrandomized phase II prospective study, with the goal of investigating the role of screening brain MRIs in neurologically asymptomatic patients with metastatic breast cancer.

Eligibility criteria

This trial does not accept healthy volunteers

Qualifiers

Histologic diagnosis of breast cancer with documentation of ER/PR/HER2 status

Radiographic evidence of stage IV extracranial diease having progressed past first line therapy in HR+/HER2- patients

Radiographic evidence of stage IV extracranial disease in TN and HER2+ patients

Age ≥ 18

Disqualifiers

Prior diagnosis or treatment of brain metastases or leptomeningeal disease

Patients with prior history of non-breast cancer malignancies should have no evidence of disease ≥ 2 years

Neurologic symptoms warranting standard screening brain MRI in the judgement of the treating physician at time of enrollment

Indications warranting brain MRI for other neurologic conditions at time of study entry
