Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
RATIONALE: Androgens can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Antihormone therapy, such as bicalutamide, may stop the adrenal glands from making androgens. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well bicalutamide works in treating patients with metastatic breast cancer.

- description
- This is a multicenter, open-label, phase II study to evaluate the antitumor activity and safety of bicalutamide administered orally daily to patients with ER(-)/PR(-)/AR(+) metastatic breast cancer. Eligible patients who have consented to trial participation will receive bicalutamide at a dose of 150mg PO daily.
