简要总结

The purpose of this study is to evaluation the tolerability of an add-on therapy with artesunate with a duration of 4 weeks in patients with advanced breast cancer.

详细描述

Additional objectives are:

  • parallel sampling of blood and saliva for the determination of drug concentrations and pharmacokinetic parameters in a substudy on the day of first application and during steady state
  • attempt to establish a therapeutical drug monitoring
  • collection of further safety data during prolonged add-on treatments (compassionate use)
