Trial Design

3Treatment groups
Experimental Treatment
Group I: Arm C (fulvestrant, bortezomib)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients receive fulvestrant IV on day 1 and bortezomib IM on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group II: Arm B (fulvestrant, bortezomib)Experimental Treatment3 Interventions
Patients receive fulvestrant as in arm A and bortezomib IV on days 1, 8, and 15. Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
Group III: Arm A (fulvestrant)Experimental Treatment2 Interventions
Patients receive fulvestrant IM on day 1 (days -14, 1, and 15 of course 1 only). Courses repeat every 28 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients with progressive disease may crossover to arm C.
