NCT00203502

Brief Summary

The main purpose of this study is to find out what effects taking the drug bevacizumab together with two chemotherapeutic agents, docetaxel and cyclophosphamide followed by doxorubicin alone before surgery will on breast cancer. Bevacizumab will be given for twelve weeks in combination with chemotherapy then it ill be held during the administration of doxorubicin. Twenty-eight to fifty-six days after undergoing surgery, all patients will receive nine three-weekly infusions of bevacizumab.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Percentage of Participants With Pathological Complete Response.

    Pathological complete response was defined as the absence of residual invasive and in situ cancer on hematoxylin and eosin evaluation of the resected breast.

    Participants were assessed during surgery, an average of one hour

Secondary Outcomes (4)

  • Number of Participants With Clinical Complete Response in Breast and the Axillary Lymph Nodes After the Completion of Chemotherapy and Bevacizumab.

    At completion of chemotherapy treatment, an average of one hour

  • Percentage of Participants With Grade 3 or 4 Adverse Events

    After each chemotherapy infusion, approximately one hour

  • To Measure the Change in Left Ventricular Ejection Fraction (LVEF) From Baseline

    Immediately before treatment and 1 year after start of treatment

  • Percentage of Participants With Pathologic Complete Response (pCR) Among Those With Triple Negative Breast Cancer

    at surgery, one day
