Study Summary

This research study is studying Ruxolitinib as possible treatment for Inflammatory Breast Cancer (IBC). The Following drugs will be use in combination with Ruxolinitinib. * Paclitaxel (also called Taxol) * Doxorubicin also called Adriamycin * Cyclophosphamide, also called Cytoxan

Primary Outcome

Biologic response to 7-day run-in phase treatment, defined as a change in phosphorylated STAT3 (pSTAT3) expression from moderate/high positive (pSTAT3-positive) in pre-run-in phase sample to negative or weakly positive/equivocal (pSTAT3-negative) in post-run-in samples. pSTAT3 status was determined by evaluating the percent positive cells and the strength of staining (weak vs. strong/moderate) in relation to positive and negative controls. A T-score was calculated based on percent-stained cells
