First seen Mar 07, 2026 · Last updated May 23, 2026 · Updated 11 times

Summary

This study looks at whether giving the chemotherapy drug paclitaxel over a longer time (2-3 hours) to cancer patients with low muscle mass can make the drug level in their blood similar to patients with normal muscle mass who get the standard 1-hour infusion. About 22 women with breast, stomach, or esophageal cancer will take part. The goal is to learn how to personalize dosing, not to test a new treatment.
