Women with: Age >/= 18 years; Histologically confirmed adenocarcinoma of the breast; Documented bone involvement +/- other non visceral metastatic disease previously untreated by chemotherapy; Hormone receptor positive disease determined by >/=10% positive stained cells for oestrogen and/or progesterone receptor by immunohistochemistry on the primary tumor or on metastatic site; HER2 negative (assessed by 0-1+ IHC or 2+ IHC with FISH-) on the primary tumor or on metastatic site; Complete staging within 4 weeks prior to registration; Women of childbearing potential must be using a medically accepted method of contraception to avoid pregnancy during the 2 months preceding the start of study treatment, throughout the study period and for up to 3 months after the last dose of study treatment in such a manner that the risk of pregnancy is minimised; Women of childbearing potential must have a negative serum or urine pregnancy test within 72 hours prior to the start of study treatment; Patients should have received at least one previous hormone therapy for breast cancer in any stage of the disease; Patients who have received adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy are allowed if relapsing more than 6 months after the end of chemotherapy Patients must be under treatment by a bisphosphonate since at least one month before entering the study; Patients may have received prior radiotherapy but a minimum of a 4 weeks interval must have elapsed; Karnofsky Performance Status >/= 70%; Life expectancy >/= 16 weeks; Adequate bone marrow, hepatic and renal functions as evidenced by the following: -Haemoglobin >/= 10 g/dL; -Absolute Neutrophil Count >/= 1.5 x 109/L; -Platelet Count >/= 100 x 109/L; -Total Bilirubin < ULN (ULN: Upper Limit of Normal); -SGOT/SGPT </= 2.5 x ULN, -Alkaline phosphatase < 5 x ULN -Creatinine Clearance > 50 mL/min; calculated using the Cockroft and Gault formula. Absence of psychological, familial, sociological or geographical condition potentially hampering compliance with the study protocol and follow-up schedule; these conditions should be assessed with the patient before registration in the trial; The patient must give written (personally signed and dated) informed consent before completing any study-related procedure. |
