Embodiment Construction

[0017] As of 2017, approximately one in eight women in the United States will develop invasive breast cancer in their lifetime. This results in approximately 225,000 new cases of invasive breast cancer being diagnosed each year. In these cases, depending on tumor type and size, approximately 20-25% of patients receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy to reduce tumor size and / or reduce nodular disease. In general, neoadjuvant chemotherapy takes 3 to 9 months. During this time, doctors rely on external still images and blood tests to evaluate the tumor for treatment. However, these techniques are insufficient for a number of reasons. For example, there are currently no external functional imaging modalities (e.g., ultrasound, computed tomography (CT), positron emission tomography (PET), magnetic resonance imaging (MRI), mammography) to assess breast cancer surveillance or tumor surveillance etc.) randomized clinical trials of effectiveness. Therefore, there is no definitive evidence...

Abstract

Examples of the present disclosure describe systems and methods for the long-term, real-time active monitoring of a wireless implant. In aspects, a wireless biosensor may be implanted in a breast biopsy cavity. The biosensor may detect biochemical parameter data of the breast biopsy cavity and the human body. The biosensor may transmit the detected biochemical parameter data in real-time to a surveillance system wirelessly coupled to the biosensor. The surveillance system may then facilitate the evaluation of the biochemical parameter data. In examples, the evaluation may comprise detecting trends in a tumors microenvironment, monitoring the progress of a treatment, or adjusting a treatment to tailor a personalized treatment.

Description

[0001] Cross References to Related Applications [0002] This application was filed as a PCT International Patent Application on September 10, 2018, and claims priority to U.S. Provisional Patent Application No. 62 / 558,034, filed September 13, 2017, the disclosure of which is incorporated herein by reference in its entirety. Background technique [0003] A key element in the management of breast cancer is monitoring response to treatment. Currently, only external imaging and blood tests are used to assess response to treatment. However, this technique is insufficient for various reasons. As an example, these techniques are only capable of detecting actual physical changes in the macroscopic environment of breast cancer tumors. As another example, these techniques rely on comparing recently acquired images and data with previously acquired images and data (which may not exist). As a result, there is currently no way to monitor or evaluate real-time information about the effe...
