  Purpose

This single arm study will assess the efficacy and safety of first line treatment with Avastin in combination with taxane-based chemotherapy (paclitaxel and gemcitabine) in patients with HER2 negative breast cancer. Eligible patients will receive Avastin 10mg/kg iv, paclitaxel 150mg/m2 and gemcitabine 200mg/m2 iv on days 1 and 15 of each 4 week treatment cycle. The anticipated time on study treatment is until disease progression, and the target sample size is <100 individuals.
