简要总结

RATIONALE: Studying samples of tumor tissue and blood from patients with cancer in the laboratory may help doctors identify biomarkers related to cancer. Riluzole may help slow the growth of tumor cells.

PURPOSE: This phase I trial is studying riluzole in women with stage I, stage II, or stage IIIA breast cancer.

详细描述

OBJECTIVES:

Primary

  • To evaluate the effects of glutamate receptor blockade with riluzole on cellular pathways important in the genesis and progression of disease in women with stage I-IIIA breast cancer by examining components of the mGluR1 signaling pathway in the pre- and post-treatment tumor samples to determine if glutamate blockade affects signaling through this pathway.

Secondary

  • To determine whether treatment with riluzole affects the proliferation and apoptosis in a manner suggesting a potential for therapeutic effectiveness.
  • To determine whether treatment with riluzole causes objectively measurable tumor shrinkage.
