Description/
Intervention:
The goal of this clinical research study is to learn if medroxyprogesterone
acetate (MPA) given alone or with methotrexate and cyclophosphamide can help to
control estrogen receptor negative (ER-) breast cancer. The safety of this
drug(s) will also be studied.
.
Study Objectives / Outcomes
Primary Objective:

To determine the clinical benefit rate (CR + PR + SD > 6 months) of medroxyprogesterone acetate
(MPA) monotherapy and MPA + low dose oral cyclophosphamide and methotrexate (ldoCM) in patients
with refractory hormone receptor negative metastatic breast cancer.

Secondary Objective:

To evaluate the toxicity of MPA and MPA + ldoCM in this patient population.
To explore the relationship between MPA trough level and clinical benefit
To explore genetic determinants of MPA bioavailability and trough concentration
To explore potential surrogates of biologic activity including Nm-23 expression in primary tumor, change in Nm-23 expression in skin, change in plasma TSP-1, change in plasma PAI-1 antigen and activity.

Inclusion Criteria:1) Histologically or cytologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the breast with measurable locally recurrent or metastatic disease. NOTE: Locally recurrent disease must not be amendable to surgery or radiation therapy with curative intent

2) Primary tumor must be ER negative and PR negative. Patients who are HER-2 positive and have failed herceptin.

3) Patients must be post-menopausal based on one of the following: Age>/=55 with no menses for at least 12 months; Age < 55 with no menses for at least 12 months and estradiol level in post-menopausal range according to local laboratory assessment; prior bilateral oophorectomy

4) Patients may have had any number of prior chemotherapy regimens for recurrent/metastatic disease

5) ECOG performance status of 0-2

6) Adequate organ function as evidenced by the following laboratory studies: absolute neutrophil count >/= 1000/mm^3; Platelet count >/=75,000/mm; Hemoglobin > 9 gm/dL (may be transfused); total bilirubin </= 2.0 mg/dL; AST </= 2 x upper limit of normal (</= 5 x normal in patients with known liver involvement); serum creatinine </= 2.5 mg/dL

7) Patients with treated, asymptomatic brain metastases are eligible provided chronic steroid therapy is not required.

8) Patients must be able to give informed consent.

Exclusion Criteria:1) Patients must not have extensive pleural effusion or ascites

2) Patients must not have a history of deep venous thrombosis or pulmonary embolism within the last 12 months.

3) Patients must not have received radiation therapy within 1 weeks of study entry. (The radiated area must not be the only site of measurable disease or evaluable disease.)

4) Patients must not have had chemotherapy or hormonal therapy within 2 weeks of study entry. (Must be 6 weeks from prior mitomycin-C or nitrosoureas)

5) Patients who are anthracycline or Taxane naïve or intolerant.
