Trial Identification

Brief Title: Therapy With Bevacizumab (BEV), Doxorubicin, and Cyclophosphamide Followed by BEV, Docetaxel, and Capecitabine Before Surgery Followed by BEV Alone After Surgery for Women With Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

Official Title: A Phase II Clinical Trial of Bevacizumab Beginning Concurrently With a Sequential Regimen of Doxorubicin and Cyclophosphamide Followed by Docetaxel and Capecitabine as Neoadjuvant Therapy Followed by Postoperative Bevacizumab Alone for Women With Locally Advanced Breast Cancer

Study ID: NCT00365417

Conditions

Breast Cancer

Study Description

Brief Summary: Bevacizumab is an angiogenesis inhibitor which means it works to stop blood vessel formation in tumors. Without new blood vessels, the growth of a tumor is slowed. Chemotherapy drugs kill cancer cells more directly. This study will evaluate: * How bevacizumab, given with chemotherapy before surgery, and then bevacizumab given alone after surgery, will affect locally advanced breast tumors * Side effects from adding bevacizumab to chemotherapy * Whether adding bevacizumab to chemotherapy for breast cancer will affect the heart * If receiving bevacizumab will have any effect on how patients recover from surgery * Side effects of the combinations of drugs used in this study

Detailed Description: Initial trials of neoadjuvant chemotherapy administered for locally advanced tumors, including those in breast cancer, demonstrated therapy could induce sufficient tumor regression to allow for the resection of otherwise unresectable tumors. Subsequent demonstration of the equivalence of lumpectomy to mastectomy in patients with operable breast cancer, stimulated interest in the concept of using preoperative chemotherapy to reduce large, but operable, primary tumors to allow for lumpectomy in women who would otherwise require a mastectomy. Given the data from previous studies, it is appropriate to continue development of sequential doxorubicin/cyclophosphamide/docetaxel regimens to improve on clinical and pathologic response rates. FB-4 is a Phase II, single arm study for women with locally advanced human epidermal growth factor receptor 2 (HER2)-negative breast cancer diagnosed by core needle biopsy. The primary aim of the study is to determine the pathologic complete response rate in the breast following neoadjuvant chemotherapy combined with bevacizumab.
