RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors learn more about changes that occur in DNA and identify biomarkers related to cancer. It may also help doctors understand how well patients respond to treatment.
PURPOSE: This laboratory study is examining tumor tissue samples from patients with breast cancer treated with bevacizumab on clinical trial ECOG-2100 to learn more about DNA changes and response in these patients.
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
Secondary
OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.
Tissue and genomic DNA samples from paraffin-embedded primary tumor are examined using standard polymerase chain reaction (PCR) restriction fragment-length polymorphisms, immunohistochemistry, allele-specific PCR, and/or Taqman-based assays. Vascular endothelial growth factor (VEGF) and VEGF receptor-2 (KDR) expression and polymorphisms are assessed.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 500 specimens will be accrued for this study.
