NCT00055861

Brief Summary

This phase II trial is to see if combining bevacizumab with docetaxel works in treating women who have locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer. Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies, such as bevacizumab, can block cancer growth in different ways. Some block the ability of cancer cells to grow and spread. Others find cancer cells and help kill them or deliver cancer-killing substances to them. Combining chemotherapy with monoclonal antibody therapy may kill more tumor cells.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • Response rate according to Response Evaluation Criteria in Solid Tumors (RECIST)

    The response rate will be estimated with exact binomial 95% confidence intervals.

    Up to 4 years

  • Side effects as assessed by the National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Toxicity Criteria (CTC) version 2.0

    Up to 4 years

Secondary Outcomes (1)

    Up to 4 years

Study Arms (1)

Treatment (bevacizumab, docetaxel)

EXPERIMENTAL

Patients receive bevacizumab IV over 30-90 minutes on weeks 1 and 3 and docetaxel IV over 60 minutes on weeks 1, 2, and 3. Treatment repeats every 4 weeks for up to 12 courses in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or disease progression.
