High-Dose Combination Chemotherapy Followed by Peripheral Stem Cell Transplantation in Treating Patients With Poor-Prognosis Breast Cancer

NCT00002509

Non-randomizedSingle-groupOpen-labelTreatment

Summary

RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining peripheral stem cell transplantation with combinations of drugs may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase I/II trial to study the effectiveness of high-dose combination chemotherapy followed by peripheral stem cell transplantation or autologous bone marrow transplantation in women with stage II breast cancer with eight or more positive axillary lymph nodes and in women with stage III or metastatic breast cancer.
