Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • To estimate the clinical benefit rate of the combination of ZD 1839 and docetaxel; clinical benefit measured by clinical response, pathologic response, and stable disease (SD greater than or equal to 24 weeks)

    2 years

  • To characterize the safety profile of the combination of ZD 1839 and docetaxel as measured by the frequency and severity of adverse events.

    2 years

Secondary Outcomes (5)

  • To estimate the duration of clinical benefit.

    2 years

  • To estimate the objective tumor response rate (using RECIST best overall response of CR + PR).

    2 years

  • To estimate the duration of tumor response.

    2 years

  • To estimate progression-free survival.

    2 years

  • To estimate time to treatment failure by measuring time to treatment failure (includes disease progression, second primary cancer, death from any cause, or discontinuation of protocol therapy in the absence of disease progression).

    2 years

Interventions

Docetaxel given as 75 mg/m2 IV every 3 weeks combined with ZD1839 (IRESSA) 250 mg orally daily until disease progression or withdrawal criteria are met.

Also known as: Docetaxel (Taxotere), ZD1839, gefitinib (Iressa)

Eligibility Criteria

Age18 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologic confirmation of breast cancer
  • Signed consent
  • Current diagnosis of metastatic breast cancer
  • At least one uni-dimensionally measurable lesion with clearly defined margins
  • Patients taking bisphosphonates for documented prior bone metastasis may be included
  • Patients may have received prior adjuvant chemotherapy including an anthracycline and/or an alkylating agent. Patients may have received prior paclitaxel or trastuzumab for adjuvant therapy. Patients may not have received prior docetaxel treatment
  • Patients may have received unlimited prior hormonal therapy regimens for metastatic disease or adjuvant therapy and must have documentation of progressive disease prior to entry. Hormonal therapy must be discontinued at least 2 weeks prior to study entry
  • Patients may have received prior radiation therapy provided it was completed at least 2 weeks before study entry. Prior radiotherapy to treat bone metastasis or spinal cord compression is permitted provided it was completed prior to study entry
  • Zubrod performance status 0, 1, or 2
  • Life expectancy of 12 weeks or more in opinion of investigator
  • LVEF greater than or equal to LLN without clinical signs or symptoms of heart failure
  • adequate bone marrow, hepatic, and renal function
  • Ineligibility Criteria
  • Prior ZD1839 or other anti EGFR or small molecule TKI
  • Previous or concurrent chemo or Herceptin for metastatic breast cancer
  • +16 more criteria
