Measure
Docetaxel + Capecitabine
Docetaxel 30mg/m2 will be administered as a 30-minute infusion on days 1 and 8. Each cycle will consist of 21 days. Premedication with dexamethasone will be given to all patients receiving weekly docetaxel therapy to reduce the incidence and severity of fluid retention as well as the severity of hypersensitivity reactions. Cycle 2 will begin on day 22. Capecitabine Capecitabine 825mg/m2 bid (total daily dose 1650mg/m2) will be administered orally for 14 days (days 1-14). Each cycle will consist of 21 days. Cycle 2 will begin on day 22. Docetaxel: Docetaxel 30 mg/m2 will be administered as a 30-minute infusion on days 1 and 8. Each cycle will consist of 21 days. Cycle 2 will begin on day 22. Capecitabine: Capecitabine 825 mg/m2 bid (total daily dose 1650 mg/m2) will be administered orally for 14 days (days 1-14). Each cycle will consist of 21 days. Cycle 2 will begin on day 22.
