Summary
This phase Ib/II tests the safety, side effects, and best dose of icosapent ethyl in combination with dasatinib and whether they work in treating patients with triple-negative inflammatory breast cancer that has spread to other places in the body (metastatic). Dasatinib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Icosapent ethyl is a highly purified omega-3 fatty acid that may slow tumor growth and disease progression. Giving dasatinib and icosapent ethyl may help shrink tumors in patients with inflammatory breast cancer.
