Oral metronomic chemotherapy may target tumor cells indirectly via antiangiogenic activity, restoration of anticancer immune response, or induction of tumor dormancy. We initiated the single-center, randomized, open-label, phase II study to determine whether the addition of metronomic cyclophosphamide to docetaxel (T) (w/o trastuzumab) improves overall response rate (ORR) as first-line treatment among patients with non-triple-negative metastatic breast cancer (MBC). Eligible patients with previously untreated non-triple-negative MBC were randomly assigned (1:1) to receive 3-weekly cycles of Metro-TC (T 75mg/m2, d1 plus oral cyclophosphamide 50 mg daily) or T alone. All patients received treatment until disease progression, unacceptable toxicity, or withdrawal of consent. The primary endpoint was ORR. Finally, 35 patients were randomized to Metro-TC group while 31 to T group. Median treatment cycles of T for both groups were 8. ORR was not improved by addition of metronomic cyclophosphamide to T (71.4% vs. 51.6%; P = 0.09). There was no statistically significant difference with regard to progression free survival (median 18.5 vs. 11.7 months; P = 0.07) or overall survival (median 33.7 vs. 33.6 months; P = 0.84) between the two group. Grade 3/4 adverse events (eg. neutropenia [100% vs. 100%], febrile neutropenia [29% vs. 29%], and neurotoxicity [6% vs. 3%]) were also comparable. There were no treatment-related deaths. We conclude that concomitant administration of metronomic cyclophosphamide and T does not appear to be a significantly active schedule for first-line treatment of non-triple-negative MBC.
