Inflammatory Breast Cancer Clinic

M. D. Anderson is home to a clinic for women with inflammatory breast cancer (IBC), believed to be the first such clinic in the world. The Inflammatory Breast Cancer Clinic accepts patients who are newly diagnosed or previously treated, and offers the most innovative treatments currently available.

Inflammatory breast cancer is the most aggressive form of breast cancer. In addition to treatment, the Inflammatory Breast Cancer Clinic's goal is to gain a better understanding of what causes IBC, develop a diagnostic blood test and imaging guidelines, and create new, more effective treatments. As more patients are seen in the clinic, researchers can add to the base of knowledge about IBC to help both current and future patients.
