摘要

Sir , We congratulate the authors on performing this multicentre trial with 164 patients ( Heil et al , 2015 ). One important selection criterion is the initial size of the primary tumor (T size) on imaging – this information did not appear in the manuscript and is of interest. The probability of adequately sampling the initial region of disease by image guidance is likely related to the T size at diagnosis and the size of residual disease on imaging. Do the authors have information on the initial T stage of all patients and the size of residual imaging abnormality at the time of pre-surgical biopsy? This is not the first report regarding the concept of minimally invasive techniques for sampling to assess pathologic complete response in breast cancer ( Clouth et al , 2007 ). The success of moving these studies into the realm of clinical omission of surgery is dependent on exquisite radiologic targeting of the lesion (37% did not have a clip placed at initial biopsy in the current study), adequate sampling with vacuum-assisted biopsy (utilized in the current study in ~30%), and the number of biopsies performed (unknown 55% of cases). At MD Anderson, we have an actively accruing trial using image-guided vacuum-assisted biopsy with fine-needle aspiration and more stringent selection criteria including patients with a 50–70% chance of pathologic eradication of disease after neoadjuvant chemo- and targeted therapy (triple-negative and HER2-amplified breast cancers) ( National Institute of Health, 2015 ).
