Selective Avoidance of Sentinel Lymph Node Biopsy After Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy In HER-2 Positive/Triple Negative Breast Cancer Patients With Excellent Radiologic Response to the Breast and Axilla, Prospective, Multi-center, Single-arm (ASLAN) Study

The aims of this study is to evaluate 5 year recurrence free survival when omit sentinel lymph node biopsy after neoadjuvant chemotherapy in triple negative or HER-2 positive breast cancer patients when physical examination expected complete remission. And radiological expected Tumor size ≤ 2cm or non-mass enhancement ≤ 4cm.
