\u201cI was shocked and surprised,\u201d Alima says, recalling the day she discovered a lump under her right arm. \u201cI\u2019ve never smoked. I never drank. So, I\u2019m like, \u2018What in the world? Where did this come from?\u2019\u201d\n <\/div>\n
Alima turned to Georgetown Lombardi, home of the Nina Hyde Center for Breast Cancer Research. \n <\/div>\n
Under the care of Claudine Isaacs, M.D., leader of the clinical breast cancer program, Alima participated in a clinical trial that offered novel, cuttting-edge treatment and intensive follow-up. \n <\/div>\n
\u201cWith new drugs and imaging techniques improving outcomes for patients, the field of breast cancer research is rapidly changing,\u201d Dr. Isaacs said. \u201cWe were able to see through the preoperative therapy how Alima\u2019s tumor was responding. It responded great and it really shrank.\u201d \n <\/div>\n
