Further study details as provided by Indiana University:

Primary Outcome Measures:
  • To determine the clinical benefit rate (CR + PR + SD > 6 months) of MPA monotherapy and MPA + low dose oral cyclophosphamide and methotrexate (ldoCM) in patients with refractory hormone receptor negative metastatic breast cancer. [ Time Frame: baseline through end of study ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Secondary Outcome Measures:
  • To evaluate the toxicity of MPA and MPA + ldoCM in this patient population [ Time Frame: baseline through end of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: Yes ]
  • To explore the relationship between MPA trough level and clinical benefit [ Time Frame: baseline through end of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To explore genetic determinants of MPA bioavailability and trough concentration [ Time Frame: baseline through end of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
  • To explore potential surrogates of biologic activity including Nm-23 expression in primary tumor, change in Nm-23 expression in skin, change in plasma TSP-1, change in plasma PAI-1 antigen and activity. [ Time Frame: baseline through end of treatment ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]

Estimated Enrollment: 50
Study Start Date: July 2007
