October 4, 2008 updated by: University of Michigan Rogel Cancer Center

UMCC 2-48 Feasibility Study of Evaluating Breast Cancer Patients With Ductal Lavage

The primary purpose of this research is to analyze the cells present in the fluid obtained via ductal lavage from the nipple of a woman with a known diagnosis of breast cancer. A portion of the lavage fluid may be used in future breast cancer biomarkers. Remaining lavage fluid will be used to analyze its biochemical composition, for investigational purposes only.
