Filter by:This study is designed to determine the efficacy of the biweekly pemetrexed/gemcitabine regimen when given to patients with metastatic breast cancer. Each agent has well demonstrated antitumor activity in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. In addition, in the phase I combination trial of the two agents, a durable tumor response was seen in one out of three heavily pretreated breast cancer patients (Adjei et al. 2000). Therefore, it is reasonable to expect that the combination of pemetrexed and gemcitabine administered may be associated with considerably more anti-tumor activity than either agent alone. If such activity is seen in this study, randomized studies comparing this combination with other active agents or combinations of active agents will be considered.
To investigate efficacy, safety and PK of GEM monotherapy after prior chemotherapy with anthracycline and taxane regimen for patients with metastatic breast cancer
Randomized,non-blinded,multi-center study in patients with metastatic breast cancer.Patients will be treated with docetaxel or docetaxel-gemcitabine. Aim of the study is to assess the optimal dosage and safety in this setting.
This is a phase III randomized study between the docetaxel/gemcitabine and docetaxel/ capecitabine doublets, with crossover to the alternate agent. The experimental arm will receive gemcitabine 1000 mg/m2 intravenous (IV) over 30 minutes days 1 and 8 and docetaxel 75 mg/m2 IV day 1 over 1 hour repeated every three weeks. The comparator arm will receive docetaxel 75 mgm/m2 IV day 1 over 1 hour and oral capecitabine 1000 mg/m2 twice daily, days 1 through 14 repeated every three weeks. Patients who progress on the experimental arm, will be treated with capecitabine as dosed on the comparator arm. Patients who progress on the comparator arm will be treated with gemcitabine as dosed on the experimental arm.
This is the phase 2 portion of a phase 1/2 trial, testing the use of pemetrexed and cyclophosphamide in combination for the treatment of advanced breast cancer. A single arm Phase 1 dose finding (establish maximum tolerated dose) study precedes the randomized phase 2 portion.
The purpose of this study is to determine whether raloxifene compared with placebo lowers the risk of coronary events and reduces the risk of invasive breast cancer in postmenopausal women at risk for major coronary events.
To investigate the clinical benefits of Docetaxel or alternating AC-Docetaxel in comparison with standard AC for metastatic breast cancer
To screen a dose-dense arm to be used in a future large scale phase III trial. Primary endpoint is safety; secondary endpoints are disease free survival and overall survival. A total of 100 patients were included.
This study aims to evaluate if a light based technique, called Transillumination Breast Spectroscopy (TIBS), can be used to construct a non-invasive breast cancer risk predictor which provides a better odds ratio than mammographic parenchymal density.
The primary objective of this study to assess the effectiveness of selenium compared to placebo in reducing the lymphedema in-patients with breast cancer. Secondary objectives are to assess the impact of selenium on patient's quality of life and to assess the incidence of adverse effects of selenium therapy.
