Filter by:This is a single arm, modified dose escalation, open label trial with the objectives of: (1) Determining a safe optimal dose of INCB007839 in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel (2) Determining clinical efficacy and safety of INCB007839 in combination with trastuzumab and docetaxel.
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Dietary supplements, such as phytochemicals, may stop or delay the development of breast cancer. It is not yet known whether giving docetaxel together with a phytochemical is more effective than giving docetaxel alone in treating patients with breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel together with a phytochemical works compared with giving docetaxel alone as first- or second-line therapy in treating patients with breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to learn if paravertebral block (PVB) will reduce chronic pain after surgery. Our hypothesis is that chronic pain from breast surgery as a consequence of central sensitization can be prevented by blocking sensory input to the CNS during surgery and the immediate post-operative period.
This single arm study will evaluate the correlation between circulating endothelial cell levels and treatment efficacy in patients with locally recurrent and metastatic breast cancer given first line treatment with Avastin in combination with docetaxel + Xeloda.Patients will be treated with docetaxel 60mg/m2 iv on day 1, and Xeloda 900mg/m2 po on days 1-14, of each 3 week cycle, plus Avastin 7.5 mg/kg iv on day 1 of each 3 week cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
The purpose of this study is to assess if docetaxel and cytoxan can shrink the size of your breast tumor and allow you to preserve your breast or have less extensive surgery on your breast. Additionally, by receiving chemotherapy before surgery, the investigators will be able to determine if your cancer is responsive to chemotherapy.
A pilot study of eniluracil containing ointment for prevention of hand foot syndrome (HRS) following capecitabine (Xeloda).
The hypothesis of this clinical research study is to discover if the study drug RAD001 can shrink or slow the growth of Estrogen Receptor/Progesterone Receptor (ER/PR) negative or Human Epidermal growth factor Receptor 2 (Her2 Neu) negative breast cancer. The safety of RAD001 will also be studied. Patients physical state, symptoms, changes in the size of the tumor, and laboratory findings obtained while on-study will help the research team decide if RAD001 is safe and effective.
RATIONALE: Biological therapies, such as agatolimod, may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab, can block tumor growth in different ways. Some block the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Others find tumor cells and help kill them or carry tumor-killing substances to them. Giving agatolimod together with trastuzumab may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving agatolimod together with trastuzumab works in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Sunitinib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth and by blocking blood flow to the tumor. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well sunitinib works in treating patients with stage I, stage II, or stage III breast cancer who have tumor cells in the bone marrow.
We want to learn if dasatinib will make triple negative breast cancers smaller. We also hope that we can learn more about what makes triple negative breast cancers grow. We believe this information will help us to predict which patients will benefit from taking this drug or other drugs like it. This study is a "neoadjuvant study", which means that it is only open to women who have not had any treatment for their breast cancer. Neoadjuvant studies allow the study doctor to look at how the cells in your cancer change after taking the study medication. This will help us to understand whether or not dasatinib is an effective treatment for breast cancer. It will also help us to learn more about triple negative breast cancer and how to treat it.
