Filter by:This study was designed to determine how effective and safe a new investigational drug, lapatinib, is in treating patients with treatment refractory or relapsed inflammatory breast cancer. Tumor tissue collected pre-treatment and at Day 28 will be examined for biologic activity by IHC (immunohistochemistry). Treatment will consist of daily oral therapy with lapatinib. A patient may continue treatment as long as they are receiving benefit. Blood samples for hematology and chemistry panels, MUGA/ECHO (multigated acquisition/echocardiogram) exams and physical exams will be performed throughout the study to monitor safety.
This phase II study will evaluate and compare the efficacy and tolerability of two dose schedules (1500 mg QD and 500 mg BID) of oral Lapatinib as treatment for patients with advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
The purpose of this research study is to find how breast cancer responds to the investigational drug, Ispinesib. An investigational drug is a drug that has not been approved by the Food and Drug Administration (FDA) and is available for research use only. In particular, this study will try is to find the answers to the following research questions: 1. Does breast cancer respond to Ispinesib? 2. What are the side effects of Ispinesib? 3. How much Ispinesib is in the blood at specific times after it is taken?
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy and safety of an oral dual tyrosine kinase inhibitor (GW572016) in combination with paclitaxel compared to paclitaxel alone in first line advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
This study was designed to determine the efficacy of an oral dual kinase inhibitor for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer tumors that are known to overexpress ErbB2 in a refractory patient population.
Treatment phase: The purpose of this study is to evaluate the safety and the immune response elicited by a new anti-cancer therapy in patients with breast cancer in remission but who are at high risk of relapse. The study product is an immunotherapeutic consisting of the recombinant dHER2 protein combined with an immunostimulant called AS15. The study aims to determine the optimal of three different dose levels of dHER2 combined with the same fixed dose of AS15 by assessing the safety and the immune response elicited after a series of injections of the study product. Five-year follow-up phase: This part of the study aims to assess any late onset toxicity of the study treatment through yearly follow-up visits and to monitor the patients' survival and disease status up to five years after the last administration of the study treatment. The patients' immune response is also measured to assess the robustness of the immune response elicited by the study treatment.
The purpose of this study is to determine the efficacy of an oral investigational drug for the treatment of metastatic breast cancer tumors that are known to overexpress HER2/neu.
