NCT00903006
The goals of this clinical research study are to learn the tolerable and effective doses of the drug MK-0646 that can be given in combination with Sprycel (dasatinib) and Faslodex (fulvestrant) to patients with hormone receptor-positive metastatic breast cancer. The safety of these drugs will be studied as well as markers in the tumors that may help researchers predict the tumors' reaction to the treatment.
