8. Willingness to perform double-barrier-contraception during study and for 6 months post chemotherapy treatment
9. ECOG performance status 0, 1 or 2
10. Normal cardiac function (i.e. normal ECG, echocardiography or left ventricular ejection fraction and clinical examination)
11. Signed informed consent

E.4 | Principal exclusion criteria |
1. Chemotherapeutic treatment for relapsed/metastatic breast cancer before enrollment

3. Major surgery < 4 weeks prior to enrollment
4. Surgery of relapse resulting in a R0 resection status
5. Immunotherapy < 6 weeks prior to enrollment
6. Severe pulmonary obstructive or restrictive disease

8. Laboratory tests (hematology, chemistry) outside specified limits: WBC < or equal 3 x 10 EXP 9/L ANC < or equal 1.5 x 10 EXP 9/L Platelets < or equal 100 x 10 EXP 9/L Hb < or equal 9.0 g/dl (< or equal 5.6 mmol/l) PT/PTT > 1.5 x ULN
9. Pregnancy or nursing status
10. Positive HIV testing
11. Known hypersensitivity to any component of the EndoTAG-1 and/or taxane formulations
12. History of malignancy other than breast cancer < 5 years prior to enrollment, except skin cancer (i.e. basal or squamous cell carcinoma) treated locally
13. Known cerebral metastasis
14. History of active or significant neurological disorder and/or psychiatric disorder that would prohibit the understanding and giving of informed consent, or would interfere in the clinical and radiological evaluation of central nervous system during the trial
15. Concurrent treatment with other experimental drugs. Participation in another clinical trial with any investigational not marketed drug within 30 days prior to study entry

E.5 End points |
E.5.1 | Primary end point(s) |
Primary efficacy endpoint is: 4-month progression free survival (PFS) rate calculated by the rate of patients in the modified intention-to-treat population (mITT) who show no progression of disease and are alive 16 weeks after first infusion of study drug.
