Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Number of Participants Who Remained Alive Without Evidence of Recurrence as a Measure of Tolerability of Adjuvant Nab Paclitaxel

    18 Months

Secondary Outcomes (2)

  • Disease-free Survival

    18 Months

  • Overall Survival

    18 Months

Study Arms (1)

Intervention

EXPERIMENTAL

100 mg/m2 of intravenous (IV) nab paclitaxel weekly (i.e., on Days 1, 8, and 15 of each 3 week treatment cycle) in combination with 600 mg/m2 of IV cyclophosphamide once every 3 weeks for 4 cycles (i.e., a total treatment period of 12 weeks \[84 days\]). Patients with fluorescence in situ hybridization (FISH) HER2+ or IHC3+ breast cancer will also receive treatment with trastuzumab in addition to the nab paclitaxel / cyclophosphamide combination therapy. Maintenance therapy with trastuzumab will continue (for the HER2+ patients who are receiving trastuzumab) after the 12-week treatment period with combination nab paclitaxel/cyclophosphamide/trastuzumab. The total treatment time for trastuzumab will be 52 weeks rather than only 12 weeks.

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically confirmed invasive adenocarcinoma of the breast or inflammatory breast cancer, with an interval between definitive breast surgery and study registration of \<60 days.
  • Definitive surgical treatment must be either mastectomy or breast-conserving therapy with axillary lymph node dissection for operable breast cancer (pT1 4 \[including inflammatory breast cancer\], pN0 3, and M0). Margins of resected specimen from definitive surgery must be histologically free of invasive adenocarcinoma and ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS). Lobular carcinoma in-situ does not count as a positive margin.
  • Patients with ≥1 axillary lymph node containing metastatic adenocarcinoma measuring \>0.2 mm, OR lymph node-negative patients with high-risk features
  • Patients with HER2/neu positive or negative tumors (HER2 positivity must be documented by FISH positivity or IHC 3+).
  • Patients who are to receive trastuzumab must have normal cardiac function (MUGA \[cardiac ejection fraction \>50%, or greater than or equal to the institutional lower limit of normal\], or echocardiogram \[ECHO\] within institutional normal limits).
  • Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) performance status (PS) ≤2.
  • Patients who are either chemotherapy naïve, or who have received prior chemotherapy \>5 years ago.
  • Patients with previous invasive cancers (including breast cancer) eligible only if treated \>5 years prior to entering this study, and show no evidence of recurrent disease.
  • Adequate bone marrow function
  • Adequate liver function,
  • Adequate renal function,
  • Patients of childbearing potential must use an effective method of contraception that is acceptable to their study physician from the time of signing informed consent until at least 3 months after the last dose of protocol treatment, and must have a negative pre study serum pregnancy test.
  • Pre-existing peripheral neuropathy must be less than or equal to grade 1 by National Cancer Institute (NCI) Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events (CTCAE) v3.0 criteria.
  • MammoSite® brachytherapy radiation accepted when performed immediately following surgery and prior to receiving chemotherapy.

You may not qualify if:

  • Patients who are pregnant or breastfeeding.
  • M1 metastatic disease.
  • Patients requiring neoadjuvant chemotherapy.
  • Life expectancy of greater than 6 months.
  • History of cardiac disease, with a New York Heart Association (NYHA) Class II or greater CHF
  • Myocardial infarction (MI) or unstable angina in the past 12 months prior to Day 1 of treatment, serious arrhythmias requiring medication for treatment, any history of stroke or transient ischemic attack at any time, clinically significant peripheral vascular disease, or evidence of a bleeding diathesis or coagulopathy.
  • Any investigational agent within 30 days of receiving the first dose of study drug.
  • Treatment with prior trastuzumab or bevacizumab therapy.
  • Concurrent treatment with any other anti-cancer therapy is not permitted.
  • History of significant psychiatric disorders.
  • History of active, uncontrolled infection.
  • A serious, non-healing wound, ulcer, or bone fracture.
  • Any other diseases, metabolic dysfunction, findings from a physical examination, or clinical laboratory test results that give reasonable suspicion of a disease or condition that contraindicates the use of an investigational drug, that may affect the interpretation of the results or that renders the patient at high risk from treatment complications.
