Vitamin D in patients with metastatic breast cancer

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (1)

  • Time to progression is from the start of Docetaxel to disease progression. Patients who have not progressed at the time of study completion or who are lost to follow-up are censored at the last Vitamin D administration date.

    1 year

Secondary Outcomes (1)

  • Overall survival is defined as the time from start of Docetaxel to death due to any cause. Patients for whom no death is captured on the clinical database are censored at the last date they were known to be alive.

    1 year
