Brief Title: Intravenous Ascorbic Acid Supplementation in Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy for Breast Cancer
Official Title: Phase I/II Randomized Study to Evaluate the Role of Intravenous Ascorbic Acid Supplementation to Conventional Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy in Women With Breast Cancer
Study ID: NCT03175341
Brief Summary: Forty years ago clinical studies conducted by Ewan Cameron and Linus Pauling suggested that intravenous (IV) and oral ascorbic acid (AA) may diminish symptoms and could improve survival in terminal cancer patients. Previous phase I and II clinical trials have found that high dose (1.5g/kg ) iv AA is well tolerated in cancer patients. This is a phase I/II, randomized study of parenteral administration of Ascorbic Acid (AA) as a supplement to the conventional neo-adjuvant chemotherapy in women with breast cancer.
