Brief Summary:
To compare continuing bevacizumab + paclitaxel or switching to bevacizumab + endocrine maintenance therapy followed by bevacizumab + paclitaxel, after 1st line induction therapy with bevacizumab + paclitaxel in ER+HER2- advanced or metastatic breast cancer.

Condition or disease Intervention/treatment Phase
Metastatic Breast Cancer Drug: Paclitaxel Drug: Bevacizumab Drug: Letrozole Drug: Anastrozole Drug: Exemestane Drug: Fulvestrant Drug: Goserelin Drug: leuprorelin Phase 2

Detailed Description:
This multicenter, randomized Phase II study of patients with advanced or metastatic estrogen receptor-positive human epidermal receptor type 2-negative breast cancer aims to compare two treatment strategies following induction therapy with 4-6 cycles of the combined use of weekly paclitaxel (wPTX) and bevacizumab (BV). In arm A, wPTX+BV is continued, while in arm B, wPTX is switched to maintenance endocrine therapy (hormone+BV) until disease progression, followed by wPTX+BV re-induction. The primary endpoint is time to failure of strategy, which is the time from randomization to a qualifying event (addition of a new agent not in the primary regimen, progressive disease during or after planned therapy, or death).
