Abstract
Resistance to chemotherapy is a complex and very frequent problem in the treatment of breast cancer. It is associated with a poor prognosis and short overall survival. We report a patient with advanced breast cancer without response to anthracyclines or taxanes but who controlled the disease for 15 months with the combination of ixabepilone and capecitabine.
