Docetaxel Combined With Estramustine in Treating Women With Metastatic Breast Cancer
Phase II Evaluation of Docetaxel Combined With Estramustine Phosphate in Patients With Metastatic Breast Cancer
Sponsor: Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center
This PHASE2 trial investigates Breast Cancer and is currently ongoing. Herbert Irving Comprehensive Cancer Center leads this study, which shows 6 recorded versions since 1997 — indicating limited longitudinal coverage. As an oncology study, it adds to the longitudinal record of treatment development for this indication.
Study Description(click to expand)OBJECTIVES: I. Determine the response rate, duration of response, duration of survival, and quality of life effects of docetaxel and estramustine combination in women with metastatic breast cancer.
OUTLINE: Patients receive estramustine 3 times a day for 3 days. Docetaxel begins on day 3 after the a.m. dose of estramustine and is given as a 1 hour infusion intravenously. Courses repeat every 21 days. If disease responds or is stable, treatment continues at the highest tolerance percentage of prescribed dose until appearance of disease progression. If complete response is documented, an additional 2 courses are given. Patients should receive a minimum of 2 courses unless rapid progression or unacceptable toxicity occur. Patients are followed monthly.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: Approximately 40 patients will be accrued for this study.
