A Study of Xeloda (Capecitabine) in Breast Cancer Patients With Central Nervous System (CNS) Progression
- Registration Number
- NCT01077726
- Lead Sponsor
- Hoffmann-La Roche
- Brief Summary
This single arm study will assess the efficacy of Xeloda in the treatment of brain metastases in breast cancer patients with central nervous system (CNS) progression after whole brain radiotherapy. Patients will receive xeloda 1000mg/m2 po bid on days 1-14 of each 3 week cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is \<100 individuals.
