Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This phase I trial studies the molecular profile of breast cancer in Ugandan patients with stage IIB-III breast cancer. Creating a molecular profile of breast cancer my help doctors learn more about biological factors associated with breast cancer in Ugandan patients with as well as measure the benefits of locally available diagnostic studies and the possibility of providing treatment via oral medication.

- description
- SPECIMEN COLLECTION: Patients undergo collection of tumor tissue and peripheral blood samples for analysis via next generation sequencing to identify novel pathways in the pathogenesis of breast cancer. TREATMENT: Patients are invited to participate in a treatment study. Patients receive cyclophosphamide PO daily on days 1-21, methotrexate PO QD on days 1, 8, and 15, and capecitabine PO BID on days 1-14. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 8 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

- description
- Will classify Ugandan women into four categories based on molecular subtypes: estrogen receptor (ER) negative (-)/progesterone receptor (PR) - /HER2 - (triple negative), ER-/PR-/HER positive (+) (HER2), ER+/PR+/HER2- (luminal A), and ER/PR+/HER2 + (luminal B) and compare to aggregate data from previously published data on a cohort of African-American women using chi square tests.
