In Brief
A Phase 2 clinical trial evaluating Etoposide and Irinotecan hydrochloride for Breast Cancer. Completed, enrolled 31 participants across 1 site.
Detailed Summary
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as irinotecan and etoposide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Giving more than one drug (combination chemotherapy) may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well giving irinotecan together with etoposide works in treating patients with recurrent, locally advanced, or metastatic breast cancer.
