We performed metabolic profiling of 37 core needle biopsy samples collected from locally advanced breast cancer before neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) using HR-MAS MRS. Various metabolites including choline-containing compounds were identified and quantified by HR-MAS MRS in all tissue samples. In multivariate analysis, the OPLS-DA models built with HR-MAS MR metabolic profiles showed visible discrimination between the pathologic response groups. This study showed OPLS-DA multivariate analysis using metabolic profiles of pretreatment CNB samples assessed by HR- MAS MRS may be used to predict pathologic response before NAC.
