Filter by:The purpose of this study is to determine whether the treatment of a doxorubicin in combination with cyclophosphamide followed by a combination of pazopanib in combination with paclitaxel prior to surgery results in a pathological complete response in females with breast cancer.
RATIONALE: Placing the gene for interleukin-12 into breast cancer cells may help the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of gene therapy in treating women with metastatic breast cancer.
This study will characterize the effect of elevated gastric pH mediated by the proton-pump inhibitor, esomeprazole, on the relative bioavailability of lapatinib in subjects with metastatic ErbB2 positive breast cancer.
RATIONALE: 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. Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Vaccines made from gene-modified tumor cells may help the body build an immune response to kill tumor cells. Giving trastuzumab together with cyclophosphamide and vaccine therapy may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying the side effects of giving trastuzumab together with cyclophosphamide and vaccine therapy in treating patients with high-risk or metastatic breast cancer.
This single-arm study assessed the efficacy and safety of first-line treatment with Avastin (bevacizumab) in combination with taxane-based chemotherapy (paclitaxel and gemcitabine) in patients with HER-2 negative breast cancer. Patients received Avastin 10 mg/kg iv, paclitaxel 150 mg/m^2 iv, and gemcitabine 200 mg/m^2 iv on Day 1 and Day 15 of each 4-week treatment cycle until disease progression, death, or withdrawal of consent.
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.
This study will evaluate the activity of single agent trastuzumab or lapatinib in patients not previously treated for HER-2 positive (FISH positive) metastatic breast cancer. A companion biological study will assess factors correlated with sensitivity or resistance to either one of the compounds
Phase II randomized multicenter trial to compare Epirubicin and Cyclophosphamide plus Docetaxel and Trastuzumab with Epirubicin and Cyclophosphamide plus Docetaxel and Lapatinib for patients with positive HER2 and resectable or locally advanced breast cancer.
The purposes of this study are the following: 1. To assess safety and document local and systemic toxicity to the peptide vaccine (E75) 2. To determine maximum tolerated dose (MTD) and optimal biologic dose (OBD) for the peptide vaccine 3. To evaluate the in vivo cellular immune response to the peptide vaccine 4. To evaluate time to recurrence in the vaccinated patients vs. matched controls
Mammographic density is sensitive to estorgen exposure and constitutes a strong intermediate maker of breast cancer risk. We hypothesize that women with higher serum xenoestrogen levels will have greater mammographic density.
