Research Theme

  1. Surgery with a focus on cosmetic outcomes
  2. Clinical trials for breast cancer
  3. Development of novel therapies based on drug sensitivity of patient-derived breast cancer stem cells

 

Details

  1. Introduction of endoscope-assisted surgery, radiofrequency ablation for early-stage breast cancer, and sentinel lymph node biopsy (using 3D lympho-CT, radioisotope method, fluorescence-guided infrared imaging, and OSNA method)
  2. Participation in JBCRG’s M-10 (INDUCE) trial and the global EMBER trial of imlunestrant, a novel oral SERD
  3. Selective culture of breast cancer stem cells from patient tumor tissue to investigate gene expression and drug sensitivity profiles, and to examine their correlation with actual therapeutic outcomes
