Summary
Brief summary (as posted)
This phase I trial studies how well chemokine modulation therapy and standard chemotherapy given before surgery work in treating patients with early stage triple negative breast cancer. Chemokine modulation therapy, including celecoxib, recombinant interferon alfa-2b, and rintatolimod, may stimulate the immune system and stop tumor cells from growing. Drugs used in standard chemotherapy, such as paclitaxel, doxorubicin, and cyclophosphamide, work in different ways to stop the growth of tumor cells, either by killing the cells, by stopping them from dividing, or by stopping them from spreading. Giving chemokine modulation therapy together with standard chemotherapy may work better than giving either therapy alone in treating patients with triple negative breast cancer.

- description
- Patients receive celecoxib PO BID, recombinant interferon alfa-2b IV over 20 minutes, and rintatolimod IV on days 1-3 of weeks 1-3, as well as paclitaxel IV over 1 hour once weekly on day 1. Treatment continues for a total of 12 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. 1-3 weeks after last dose of paclitaxel, patients receive doxorubicin IV over 10 minutes and cyclophosphamide IV over 30 minutes. Treatment repeats every 2 weeks for 4 cycles in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
