PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of tamoxifen with or without combination chemotherapy in treating postmenopausal women with stage I or stage II breast cancer that can be surgically removed
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Compare the potential benefits of adjuvant tamoxifen with or without cyclophosphamide methotrexate and fluorouracil CMF in postmenopausal women with stage I-IIIA unilateral invasive breast cancer

OUTLINE This is a randomized study multicenter study Patients are stratified according to nodal status positive vs negative or unknown and hospital region Patients undergo surgical resection with or without local radiotherapy as appropriate Radiotherapy begins within 8 weeks of surgery for patients randomized to arm I and within 4 weeks after completion of chemotherapy for patients randomized to arm II Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms preferably within 2 weeks after surgery Arm I Beginning within 4 weeks after surgery patients receive oral tamoxifen daily Treatment continues for 5 years Arm II Beginning within 4 weeks after surgery patients receive tamoxifen as in arm I and cyclophosphamide IV methotrexate IV and fluorouracil IV on day 1 CMF Chemotherapy continues every 3 weeks for 6 courses Patients are followed every 6 months for 5 years and then annually thereafter
