GF-GS 01: Comparing Conventional Axillary Dissection Versus Sentinel Node Resection in Clinically Node-negative Operable Breast Cancer

May 23, 2019 updated by: Hospices Civils de Lyon

A Randomized, Phase III Clinical Trial GF-GS 01 to Compare Conventional Axillary Dissection Versus Sentinel Node Resection (GS) in Clinically Node-negative Operable Breast Cancer Unifocal N0 Patients

Sentinel node resection appears as a promising advancement in the surgical treatment of breast cancer.

The GF-GS 01 study, sponsored by a National Hospital Research Program, compares this new surgical method with a classical method in patients having a negative sentinel node.

The duration of the follow-up is 5 years.
