Brief Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as liposomal doxorubicin, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving chemotherapy in different ways, such as into the breast ducts, may kill more tumor cells. Giving chemotherapy before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed. PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying the side effects and best dose of liposomal doxorubicin when given before mastectomy in treating women with invasive breast cancer.

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Maximum Tolerated Dose (MTD)

    Maximum tolerated dose (MTD) of administering pegylated liposomal doxorubicin (PLD) into one duct of women with breast cancer awaiting mastectomy. MTD reflects highest dose of drug that did not cause Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) in more than 30% of patients.

    Until up to 30 days after PLD administration

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Concentrations of Doxorubicin in Blood (Plasma) at Definitive Surgery

    Baseline, 4 hrs, day2/24 hrs, day 8, day of surgery/biopsy

  • Concentrations of Doxorubicin in Tissue at Definitive Surgery

    Day of surgery/biopsy

Study Arms (2)

Intraductal arm

EXPERIMENTAL

Participants received intraductal administration of dextrose or dextrose with pegylated liposomal doxorubicin hydrochloride (or PLD) prior to conventional surgery for breast cancer.

Drug: Intraductal arm

Intravenous arm

ACTIVE COMPARATOR

Participants receiving standard intravenous administration of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin prior to breast biopsy for drug concentrations.

Drug: Intravenous arm

Interventions

Patients will receive PLD intraductally according to the dose escalation schema (Dose Level -1=1 mg, Dose Level 1=2 mg, Dose Level 2= 5mg, Dose Level 3=10 mg). The PLD dose will be diluted in 5% dextrose in water and will be mixed for a total volume of 5 ml. The PLD will be administered via a breast duct (i.e., intraductally) using a microcatheter

Also known as: Doxorubicin HCl Liposome Injection, Dox-SL, Doxil TM
Intraductal arm

Blood samples and a breast tissue biopsy collected to look at levels of doxorubincol from patients receiving intravenous pegylated liposomal doxorubin to compare to the group receiving drug intraductally.
