High-Dose Chemotherapy and Peripheral Stem Cell Transplantation in Treating Patients With Recurrent or Refractory Metastatic Breast Cancer
Completed · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Breast Cancer
In brief
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining chemotherapy with peripheral stem cell transplantation may allow the doctor to give higher doses of chemotherapy drugs and kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of high-dose chemotherapy and peripheral stem cell transplantation in treating patients with recurrent or refractory metastatic breast cancer.
