Breast Cancer

The primary purpose of this trial is to determine if an investigational drug is able to reduce advanced breast cancer tumors in patients who no longer benefit from anthracyclines, taxanes and capecitabine.

Participants should be male or female volunteers at least 18-years-old who have a diagnosis of breast cancer that is now metastatic (meaning the cancer has spread beyond its original location) or a recurrence of the cancer in its original location that can't be removed by surgery.

The research site is in Coeur d'Alene, Idaho.
