Breast Cancer Plasma Adjuvant Intra-operative Treatment (Breast Cancer PAINT)

The goal of this clinical trial is to test the safety of the use of non-thermal plasma (NTP, an ionized gas) on the tumor bed after the removal of the tumor in breast cancer patients. The main questions it aims to answer are: * To determine the safe and tolerable dose of NTP in patients with breast cancer; * To assess the safety and tolerability of NTP; * To assess the cosmetic effects of NTP treatment in patients with breast cancer. Participants will receive one treatment of the tumor bed after the removal of…
