Summary
This study uses a special type of PET/CT scan called FLT to see how active breast cancer tumors are before and during treatment with two drugs (ribociclib and paclitaxel). About 20 adults with metastatic breast cancer that has spread beyond the liver and bones will take part. The goal is to learn whether the scan can show early signs of whether the treatment is working.
