Breast Cancer
Conditions
Brief summary
This open-label, randomized, parallel arm study will evaluate the effect of capecitabine administered concurrently with WBRT and as maintenance therapy in participants with breast cancer and newly diagnosed brain metastases. Participants will be randomized to receive either capecitabine with 10 days standard WBRT, or WBRT alone. Maintenance therapy will follow with capecitabine or another systemic therapy in the WBRT only group.
Interventions
3000 cGy WBRT in 10 single daily fractions over 12 to 14 days (300 cGy / fraction).
825 mg/m\^2 orally twice daily, Days 1-14 of a 21 day cycle for 1 cycle followed by 1000 mg/m\^2 orally twice daily Days 1-14 every 21 days starting with Cycle 2.
The choice of standard of care will be at the discretion of the treating oncologist. The protocol does not specify any particular standard of care treatment.
