Embodiment 1

[0251] Example 1. Bevacizumab in combination with chemotherapy regimens in subjects with previously treated metastatic breast cancer

[0252] Metastatic breast cancer (MBC) is an incurable disease and most patients die from their disease within 2 years of diagnosis. See Greenberg, et al., 1996, J. Clin. Oncol. 14:2197-205. Following adjuvant therapy, approximately 60% of patients with advanced disease present with local recurrence and 40% with distant metastasis. Only 10% of patients present with metastatic disease at initial diagnosis. See Ryberg et al., 2001 Ann. Oncol. 12:81-7.

[0253] The treatment strategy for patients with MBC is based on several factors, including clinical, pathological, and histological features, such as human epidermal growth factor-2 (HER2) amplification, hormone receptor status, prior response to hormonal agents, and / or or failure, number and specific site of metastatic disease, and treatment history in both metastatic and adjuvant settings.
