Clinical Trial Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die.

PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining liposomal doxorubicin with gemcitabine in treating women who have metastatic breast cancer.


Clinical Trial Description

OBJECTIVES:

- Determine the objective response rate in women with metastatic breast cancer treated with doxorubicin HCl liposome and gemcitabine.

- Determine the duration of response, time to disease progression, and duration of survival of patients treated with this regimen.

- Determine the quality of life of patients treated with this regimen.

- Determine the quantitative toxicity of this regimen, in terms of incidence, type, and severity, in these patients.

OUTLINE: This is a multicenter study.

Patients receive doxorubicin HCl liposome IV over 1 hour on day 1 and gemcitabine IV over 30 minutes on days 1 and 8. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients who achieve a complete response (CR) receive 2 courses beyond documentation of CR.

Quality of life is assessed at baseline, on day 1 of each course, and then at the end of study.

Patients are followed at 4 weeks and then every 3 months for 5 years.

PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 75 patients will be accrued for this study. ;
