This is a clinical trial study on advanced breast carcinoma using low-dose Sunitinib to 'Normalization' the microvascular environment to enhance the delivery of anti-cancer drugs (AC)to the cancer cells. In vivo DCE-MRI and DTI are used to monitor the perfusion,and 4 other vessel parameters changes prior to the main course of chemotherapy to reveal the most sensitive biomarker(s)with respect to tumor mass by MRI. Other histological parameters are measured.
