Timing of SLNB and NAC
Pre-NAC SLNB Post-NAC SLNB
Identification rate ~100% > 90%
False negative rate < 5-10% Up to 33% (8-13%)
Second surgery Potentially Not necessarily
Ability to avoid ALND Low Higher
Ability to assess pCR May have removed
only positive node
Better able to assess

Role of Ultrasonography
• May provide staging information if done prior
to neoadjuvant chemotherapy without
removing only positive node
• Should we still do SLNB post-NAC in patients
with known axillary disease?
– If so, ultrasound no longer saves patients SLNB

So….
• Lower identification rate
• Higher false negative rate
• But does it matter?
– NSABP B-04
– ACOSOG Z-0011
Does ALND matter?
• LNR stratifies
prognosis
• ALMANAC and others
→ no change in tx
• No significant change
in local recurrence

Future Studies
• Alliance A11202
– Randomize SLN+ patients post-NAC to ALND vs.
axillary RT
• NSABP B-51
– Node positive patients undergoing NAC
→Node negative post-NAC (SLNB and/or ALND)
– Breast radiation if partial mastectomy
– Randomized to regional LN radiation (+ PMRT) vs.
no regional LN radiation (and no PMRT)
