Filter by:The gemcitabine-paclitaxel and gemcitabine-platinum combinations have shown promise in the treatments of MBC; however, the optimal dosing schedules for these combinations have not yet been determined. The primary objective of this study is to compare the response rates of the gemcitabine-paclitaxel, gemcitabine-carboplatin, and gemcitabine-cisplatin combinations when administered on a biweekly schedule in metastatic breast cancer.
The purpose of this study is to determine the objective tumor response of the first-line therapy combination of gemcitabine and cisplatin in patients with metastatic breast cancer
Gemcitabine and anthracycline combination has shown encouraging activity as neoadjuvant chemotherapy in locally advanced breast cancer. An addition of sequential gemcitabine and cisplatin, also a highly active combination in this indication, may result in improvement in pathological response and overall survival. Patients with operable breast cancer will be treated in neoadjuvant setting with gemcitabine plus doxorubicin, followed by gemcitabine plus cisplatin.
The combination of docetaxel and gemcitabine has shown significant activity in patients with metastatic breast cancer. Several studies have activity in patients of multiple lines of therapy, including patients that have been treated with prior taxane therapy. Overall responses have ranged from 30% to 79%. The major side effects of the combination chemotherapy have been neutropenia, anemia, asthenia, neuropathy, nausea, mucositis, and neutropenic fever
The purposes of this study are to determine the safety of gemcitabine and paraplatin either with or without trastuzumab Any side effects that might be associated with these compounds. Whether the two or three drugs listed above when given in combination can help patients with metastatic breast cancer. How long the treatment will stop the growth of the cancer.
This is a phase III randomized study which compares two different regimens of chemotherapy. The purpose of the study is to determine which of the two regimens will make the tumor smaller or disappear, and for how long. In addition the disease-related symptoms will be evaluated. The safety of the drugs will be determined based upon evaluation of the side effects
This phase II trial that includes Gemcitabine 1,250mg/m2 to be administered over approximately 30 minutes on days 1 and 8, every 21 days and Trastuzumab 8 mg/kg IV to be administered over 90 minutes on day 1 of the first cycle, then 6mg/kg as a 30 minute infusion administered on subsequent cycles.
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.
