Conditions
Breast Cancer
Interventions
Registration Number
NCT00589901
Lead Sponsor
Fudan University
Brief Summary

The primary objective of this study is to evaluate the time to progression. Secondary objectives are safety, OS and pharmacogenetic analysis. Sixty patients will be enrolled into this study.

Detailed Description

Xeloda (capecitabine) is converted to 5-fluorouracil by thymidine phosphorylase, and cyclophosphamide is capable of upregulating the expression of thymidine phosphorylase suggesting a synergistic effect.
