Preoperative Cisplatin and Bevacizumab in ER-, PR-, HER2 Negative Breast Cancer
Completed · Phase 2
Conditions studied: Breast Cancer
In brief
The purpose of this study is to find out what effect taking cisplatin in combination with bevacizumab before surgery and then standard chemotherapy plus bevacizumab after surgery will have on participants with Estrogen Receptor (ER) negative, Progesterone Receptor (PR) negative and Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) negative breast cancer. Cisplatin is used to destroy cancer cells in many types of cancers, and has shown to be effective and have manageable side effects. Bevacizumab is an antibody, which is a protein that attacks a foreign substance in the body. Bevacizumab slows or stops cell growth in cancerous tumors by decreasing the blood supply to the tumors.

You may qualify if…
- All tumors must be ER-, PR- and HER2-negative
- Clinical stage T2 or T3, N0-3, M0. Subjects with inflammatory breast cancer are not eligible
- For subjects with clinically negative axilla, a sentinel lymph node biopsy will be performed either up front or after preoperative therapy at the discretion of the subject's physicians; for subjects with a clinically positive axilla, a needle aspiration or core biopsy will be performed to confirm the presence of metastatic disease in the lymph nodes.
