Low -Dose-bevacizumab and Pemetrexed Versus TPC in Metastatic HER2-negative Breast Cancer Patients

Summary

This is a single-center, open, randomized, controlled phase 2 clinical trial designed to compare low-dose-bevacizumab and pemetrexed with TPC in metastatic HER2-negative breast cancer patients after failure of taxanes and anthracycline-containing regimens.
