    About This Study

    Methotrexate is a type of chemotherapy drug. The purpose of this study is to find out how well high-dose Methotrexate works for treating breast cancer that has spread to the membrane that cover the brain and spinal cord. We also want to find out what the side effects of this treatment may be. Methotrexate will be given to study volunteers in the hospital every 2 weeks until there is evidence that the cancer is growing.
