Study Summary

The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if Tarceva® (erlotinib hydrochloride) can help control triple receptor-negative breast cancer. The safety of this drug will also be studied. Objectives: To assess the clinical efficacy, biologic effects and safety of the EGFR inhibitor erlotinib in the treatment of patients with 'triple receptor-negative' metastatic carcinoma of the breast. Primary endpoints: 1\) Time to progression (TTP) Secondary endpoints: 1. clinical benefit rate as defined by complete and partial response and stable disease 2. overall survival (OS) 3. safety profile and tolerability of erlotinib 4. biologic correlative studies

Primary Outcome

Time to progression calculated from the date of study entry to the date of disease progression or death. Progression of disease is defined by RECIST (Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors) criteria, as measurable increase in the smallest dimension of any target or not-target lesion, or the appearance of new lesions, since baseline. Confirmed response based on two tumor assessments (imaging) separated by at least 4 weeks.
