Brief Summary: RATIONALE Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells Naltrexone may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells Naltrexone may also stop the growth of breast cancer by impairing blood flow to the tumor

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well naltrexone works in treating women with metastatic breast cancer that is no longer responsive to previous hormone therapy
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine the efficacy of naltrexone in women with hormone-refractory metastatic breast cancer as measured by serial fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography-CT scans

Secondary

Determine the safety of naltrexone in these patients
Determine the median time to event first time when maximum specific uptake values is higher than that at baseline within 1 year of study entry

OUTLINE This is an open-label study

Patients receive oral naltrexone once daily for 8 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity After 8 weeks patients may continue naltrexone off study at the discretion of the physician

Patients undergo fludeoxyglucose F 18 positron emission tomography-CT scans at baseline week 4 week 8 and periodically thereafter

After completion of study treatment patients are followed for up to 1 year

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 35 patients will be accrued for this study
