GEICAM/9801A multicenter phase III randomized trial comparing docetaxel with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (TAC) versus 5-fluorouracil with doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide (FAC) as adjuvant treatment of operable breast cancer patients with negative axillary lymph nodes. TARGET 0 / GEICAM/9805A multicenter phase III randomized trial to compare the sequential and the concomitant administration of doxorubicin and docetaxel, as first-line chemotherapy treatment for metastatic breast disease. GEICAM/9903Docetaxel plus gemcitabine administered every other week as first-line treatment for metastatic breast cancer. GEICAM/9904Weekly docetaxel as neo-adjuvant treatment in stage II and III breast cancer. GEICAM/9905A multicenter phase III randomized trial comparing 5-fluorouracil with epirubicin and cyclophosphamide (FEC) versus 5-fluorouracil with epirubicin and cyclophosphamide (FEC) followed by weekly paclitaxel as adjuvant treatment of operable breast cancer patients with positive axillary lymph nodes. GEICAM/9906An open, multicenter randomized phase IV trial for the administration of pamidronate to breast cancer patients with bone metastatic disease. GEICAM/2000-01A randomized phase III treatment to compare the administration of vinorelbine versus vinorelbine plus gemcitabine in patients with metastatic breast cancer previously treated with anthracyclines and taxanes. GEICAM/2000-04Maintenance phase III/IV study for the administration of Caelyx versus no treatment, after induction chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer disease. GEICAM/2001-01A multicenter, cross-over, randomized trial with exemestane versus anastrozole as first-line hormonal treatment of postmenopausal women with metastatic breast cancer disease and positive hormone receptors. GEICAM/2001-03A multicenter, open-label randomized phase III trial for the administration of zoledronate to patients with advanced breast cancer disease and non-symptomatic bone metastasis. GEICAM/2001-05A multicenter phase II trial to evaluate the administration of gemcitabine with doxorubicin and paclitaxel (GAT) as neo-adjuvant treatment of stage III disease breast cancer patients. GEICAM/2002–01A phase II trial to evaluate the administration of doxorubicin with cyclophosphamide (AC) followed by weekly docetaxel (T) as neo-adjuvant treatment of stage II disease breast cancer patients. GEICAM/2002–03A multicenter, open-label, randomized phase III trial comparing six courses of FAC (fluorouracil, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide) with four courses of FAC followed by 8-weekly administrations of Taxol in the adjuvant treatment of node-negative patients with operable breast cancer. GEICAM/2003–02A multicenter, open-label, randomized phase III trial comparing epirubicin plus cyclophosphamide (EC) followed by docetaxel (T) with epirubicin plus docetaxel (ET) followed by capecitabine (X) in the adjuvant treatment of node-positive patients with operable breast cancer. GEICAM/2003–10Open-label, no randomized, phases I–II of the treatment with Myocet/Taxotere/Herceptin as primary antineoplasic treatment in newly diagnosed breast cancer patients with HER2neu overexpression. GEICAM/2003–03Phase IV.II clinical trial with the combination of pegylated liposomal doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide and trastuzumab in patients with metastatic breast cancer with overexpression HER2neu. GEICAM/2004–05Randomized clinical trial to compare the benefit of adding trastuzumab to the combination of capecitabine plus vinorelbine as second-line treatment for patients with locally advanced non-operable breast cancer or metastatic breast cancer with overexpression of HER2, who have progressed to a previous line of treatment for metastatic disease that included trastuzumab in combination with taxanes. GEICAM/2004–06Phase IV.II clinical trial, multicenter, for administration of capecitabine concomitant to radiotherapy in patients with locally advanced breast cancer and HER2neu negatives. GEICAM/2005–01Phase IV.III, multicenter, open, randomized treatment study to evaluate the efficacy of maintenance therapy with capecitabine after standard chemotherapy with anthracyclines in patients with metastatic breast cancer. GEICAM/2005–04
A phase Ib, open-label, dose-escalation study of the safety and pharmacology of taselisib (GDC-0032) in combination with either docetaxel or paclitaxel in patients with HER2-negative, locally advanced, or metastatic breast cancer
