Summary

This study observes over 1,000 breast cancer patients receiving a special version of the chemotherapy drug docetaxel that contains no ethanol (alcohol). The goal is to see how often patients experience alcohol-like symptoms such as flushing or dizziness during or shortly after treatment. Researchers hope this information will help make chemotherapy safer and more tolerable.
