Study #2016-0177
A Randomized Phase II Study Of Neoadjuvant Carboplatin/Paclitaxel (CT) Versus Panitumumab/Carboplatin/Paclitaxel (PaCT) Followed By Anthracycline-Containing Regimen For Newly Diagnosed Primary Triple-Negative Inflammatory Breast Cancer
MD Anderson Study Status
Not Accepting
Treatment Agent
Carboplatin, Paclitaxel, Panitumumab
Description
This randomized phase II trial studies how well carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without panitumumab work in treating patients with invasive triple negative breast cancer. Drugs used in the chemotherapy, such as carboplatin and paclitaxel, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping the them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Monoclonal antibodies, such as panitumumab, may interfere with the ability of tumor cells to grow and spread. Giving carboplatin and paclitaxel with or without panitumumab before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.
