Adjuvant (Treatment After Surgery) Breast Cancer Trials 

NSABP B-49             Principal Investigator: Larry Schlabach, MD

                                                Co-Investigator: John McCravey, MD and Matt Graham, MD

Title: NSABP B-49 Docetaxel and Cyclophosphamide Compared to Anthracycline-Based Chemotherapy in Treating Women With HER2-Negative Breast Cancer (IRB#:12-029)

NCT #: NCT01547741        Phase: Phase III

Purpose: Drugs used in chemotherapy work in different ways to stop the growth of breast cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving the drugs in different combinations may kill more breast cancer cells. Giving combination chemotherapy after surgery may kill any tumor cells that remain after surgery.

This randomized phase III trial is studying different combination chemotherapy regimens and their side effects and comparing how well they work in treating women with non-metastatic breast cancer.

Drugs possibly given:
Cyclophosphamide
Docetaxel
Doxorubicin hydrochloride
Paclitaxel

NCT #: NCT01674410        Phase: Phase III

Purpose:  This randomized phase III trial studies how well giving hormone therapy together with or without everolimus work in treating patients with breast cancer.
