Summary

This study will evaluate the rate of pathological complete response (pCR) to the sequential therapy of Doxil, paclitaxel, and cyclophosphamide with concurrent Avastin for patients with locally advanced invasive (T2,T3, Nany, M0) breast carcinoma. Also, the study will evaluate the clinical and subclinical cardiotoxic effect(s) of this regimen, assess how feasible and safe the study is. Survival without any progression of disease will also be calculated.

A regimen of chemotherapy will be given to replicate the high rate of pCR seen with conventional chemotherapy in patients with locally advanced breast cancer. Doxil will substitute the normally given doxorubicin. It is expected that the low effect or minimal effect of Doxil on cardiac function will minimize any additional risk of cardiotoxicity from Avastin. It is expected that clinical and subclinical rates of cardiotoxicity will be very low at the total doses to be given in this clinical trial.

Regimen A: Doxil 25 mg/M2 iv and Avastin 10 mg/kg iv every 2 weeks x 3, then paclitaxel 175 mg/M2 i.v. and Avastin 10 mg/kg iv every 2 weeks x 3, then cyclophosphamide 600 mg/M2 i.v. and Avastin 10 mg/kg iv every 2 weeks x 3 .
