简要总结

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel, work in different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known whether garlic supplements affect the ability of docetaxel to kill tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well giving docetaxel together with garlic works in treating patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • Determine the clinical pharmacokinetic behavior of docetaxel with and without garlic tablets in patients with locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer.
  • Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

Secondary

  • Determine the incidence of enzyme and transporter polymorphism in patients treated with this regimen.
