A Phase II Trial of Preoperative Cisplatin and Bevacizumab in Estrogen Receptor (ER) Negative, Progesterone (PR) Negative, Human Epidermal Growth Factor Receptor 2 (HER2) Negative Breast Cancer

NCT00580333 Phase 2 COMPLETED Results posted

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.
