Description/
Intervention:
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn the relationship of
high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) in controlling
metastatic breast cancer. The study also will investigate the role of CTCs in
breast cancer.
.
Study Objectives / Outcomes
Primary Objectives
1. To determine the relationship of high-dose chemotherapy (HDCT) with purged autologous stem cell products and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) among metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients after receiving high-dose chemotherapy autologous hematopoietic stem cell transplantation.

2. To determine whether reduction of CTCs will correlate with prolonged progression-free survival (PFS).

Secondary Objectives:

1. To determine whether reduction of CTCs will correlate with prolonged overall survival (OS).

2. To characterize the biology of CTCs.

Inclusion Criteria:1) 18 to 55 years old

2) Metastatic breast carcinoma.

3) Histological confirmation of invasive breast carcinoma

4) Complete or partial response to pre-transplant standard-dose chemotherapy, or hormonal therapy. For bone disease, stable disease (SD) is allowed.

6) Zubrod performance status 0 or 1.

7) Patients must have adequate hematological parameters (WBC >= 3,000/mm3; platelet count >= 100,000/mm3)

8) Adequate renal function (serum creatinine <= 1.5mg/dl)

9) Adequate liver function (total bilirubin, SGPT <= 2 x normal).

10) Adequate cardiac function (LVEF >= 50%).

11) Adequate pulmonary function (DLCO >= 50% of predicted value).

12) Females of childbearing (women who are post-menopausal < 1 year, not surgically sterilized, or not abstinent) potential must use adequate contraception.

13) Patients must sign an informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:1) Prior HDCT with AHST in adjuvant setting.

2) History or presence of brain/leptomeningeal metastasis.

3) History of other malignancies except cured non-melanoma skin cancer or cured cervical carcinoma in situ.

4) Presence of other severe medical illnesses or conditions. Severe heart disease, (myocardial ischemia, myocardial infarction, etc.) Pulmonary disease (COPD, asthma,etc). Renal failure and hepatic failure.

5) Clinically significant active infections (patient requiring IV antibiotics, uncontrolled infections, or hospitalized due to infections).

6) HIV infection.

7) Pregnant or lactating women.

8) Medical, social or psychologic factors which would prevent the patient from receiving or cooperating with the full course of therapy or understanding the informed consent procedure.
