A 65-year-old woman with a right breast tumor and right arm pain was seen in our hospital. She was diagnosed with scirrhous carcinoma (Stage IV, hormone receptor-positive, and HER2-negative) with pleural effusion and metastasis to the lung, liver, bone, and multiple lymph nodes. Systemic chemotherapy with biweekly bevacizumab and weekly paclitaxel was administered, and an opioid (oxycodone 40 mg/day) was administered for pain control. At the end of the first course, the patient's pain was improved, and the opioid dose was reduced (oxycodone 20 mg/day). The patient had a partial response (PR) over 24 treatment courses (1 year 10 months), and good pain control was obtained. Bevacizumab and paclitaxel therapy successfully brought about a rapid and good response and improved the patient's quality of life as palliative chemo- therapy.
