Biospecimen and Medical Data Collection and Tumor Biopsy in Creating Research Tissue Registry in Patients With Inflammatory or Invasive Breast Cancer

Summary

This trial studies the biospecimen and medical data collection in creating a research tissue registry in patients with inflammatory or invasive breast cancer. Collecting medical data and storing samples of blood, tissue, and stool from patients with inflammatory breast cancer to study in the laboratory may help doctors find better ways to treat and study inflammatory breast cancer in the future.
