Brief Summary: Primary Objectives

Assess ultrastructure changes in dermal myelinated nerves of patients who receive ixabepilone chemotherapy
Detailed characterization of peripheral neuropathy in patients who receive ixabepilone

Secondary Objectives

Clinical benefit rate
Time to progression TTP
Toxicity
Exploratory studies

Relation of MDR 1 and TRKA polymorphisms to evolution of ultrastructural neurologic changes observed in neurons
Relation of NGF IL8 and IL10 to the development of clinical symptoms and ultrastructural changes in neurons
Detailed Description: Eligible patient population

Stage 4 breast cancer
Resolution from toxicity of prior therapy to CTC grade 1 except alopecia
No limit on prior number of therapies to treat cancer
Adequate organ function
Life expectancy greater than 3 months

Treatment ixabepilone 40 mgm2 Q3w over 3 hours

Evaluation on Study

I Efficacy evaluation

Baseline CT chest abdomen and pelvis and bone scan within 4 weeks of starting therapy
Evaluation of disease every 2 cycles of chemotherapy
Ongoing toxicity evaluation using NCI CTC 3

II Neurological evaluation

Detailed neurologic exam using Neuropathy Assessment Instrument represents a standard neurological exam
Serum NGF IL 810 prior to starting therapy and prior to each cycle of ixabepilone
DNA for assessment of TRK A and MDR1 polymorphisms
Punch biopsy of skin prior to starting therapy and after every 2 cycles Laboratory evaluation of peripheral nerve biopsies will be conducted at Rockefeller University under the direction of Dr Carlson in Dr Stricklands Lab
