Triple-negative breast cancer care (TNBC) at Mayo Clinic
Triple-negative breast cancer (TNBC) calls for a quick diagnosis, tailored treatment options and a highly coordinated plan. Breast medicine specialists in the Mayo Clinic Breast Clinic have extensive experience treating TNBC and other aggressive forms of breast cancer.
Mayo Clinic uses a team-based approach. Experts in medical oncology, surgery, radiology and genetics work together from the beginning to determine your diagnosis and develop a personalized treatment plan for you. This ensures that you receive whole-person care that takes into account all of your needs.
Your TNBC care team might include:
Faster answers and treatment because time matters
- Because TNBC can be aggressive, efficiency is a major focus.
- Mayo's Breast Clinic team often provides biopsy results within 72 hours.
- For some people with early-stage TNBC, radiation therapy may be shortened to as few as 3 to 5 days depending on their diagnostic results. Mayo researchers also have tested personalized three-day radiation approaches to reduce fatigue and time away from work and family.
Treatment is precisely tailored to your type of TNBC tumor
- Mayo is able to identify tumor-infiltrating lymphocytes (TILs). These are immune cells found in and around the tumor in early-stage TNBC.
- The information from the TILs can help doctors identify patients who may benefit from less chemotherapy without sacrificing their outlook.
- Mayo's team uses precision medicine based on your tumor's genetics. This may include immunotherapy and targeted drug combinations. For example, Mayo uses antibody-drug conjugates and immunotherapy combinations that target cancer cells without hurting healthy cells.
Clinical trials are part of everyday care
- Every person with TNBC who comes to Mayo for their care is evaluated for a clinical trial as part of their care.
- Mayo offers access to treatments not widely available elsewhere, including advanced immunotherapy and therapies that use the immune system in new ways.
- Mayo Clinic doctors offer supportive therapy and survivorship services to support you during and after treatment. Researchers are studying ways to improve supportive care.
- Mayo Clinic also offers holistic care that extends beyond clinical treatment to include fertility preservation, sexual health, and integrative therapies such as acupuncture and stress management.
If you have other health conditions that could be affected by cancer treatment, your team may include additional specialists. For instance, cardiologists from the Cardio-Oncology Clinic may join your team if you have concerns related to your heart. If there are concerns about your kidneys, nephrologists from the Onco-Nephrology Clinic may join your team.
Your appointments are coordinated so that you can carefully consider your options and meet with a variety of specialists, often in a matter of days.
