This study focuses on a drug called E7070 and its potential benefits for individuals with metastatic breast cancer. Metastatic breast cancer is a form of breast cancer that has spread to other parts of the body. This study is specifically for those who have previously undergone treatment with an anthracycline, a taxane, and capecitabine, but these treatments were either not effective or caused intolerable side effects. The main goal of this research is to determine if E7070 can be a safe and effective treatment option for these patients, potentially improving their care and quality of life. In this study, participants will receive E7070 as part of their treatment. The study is designed to measure how well the drug works, specifically looking at the 'Objective Response Rate'. This refers to the proportion of patients who show a significant reduction in their tumor size after treatment. The study will also monitor the safety and tolerability of E7070, keeping track of any side effects or complications that may occur.

Treatment Study

These studies test new ways to treat a disease, condition, or health issue. The goal is to see if a new drug, therapy, or approach works better or has fewer side effects than existing options.

Criteria

14 inclusion criteria required to participate
Patients must be female

Patients must have histologically or cytologically confirmed metastatic breast cancer

Patients must either have tumors that are resistant/refractory to chemotherapy with an anthracycline, a taxane, capecitabine, and appropriate Herceptin therapy, or tumors that cannot be treated with these agents due to patient's treatment toxicity; therefore, patients must have received 2 prior chemotherapies but no more than 3 prior chemotherapies in the metastatic setting

Patients must have at least one uni-dimensionally measurable lesion according to the RECIST criteria in at least one site that has not been irradiated

Show More Criteria

24 exclusion criteria prevent from participating
Patients must not have metastatic disease that can be completely surgically resected

Patients who received adjuvant taxane must not have experienced disease progression within 12 months of beginning that therapy

Patients must not have received chemotherapy, hormonal therapy, or Herceptin within 2 weeks of E7070 treatment start and must have recovered from any chemotherapy-related or other therapy-related toxicity at study entry

Patients must not have received investigational drugs including immunotherapy, gene therapy, or other biologic therapy; antineoplastic therapy; or radiation therapy (other than required for palliation of bone pain or chest ulceration) within 2 weeks of E7070 treatment
