Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining docetaxel doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide in treating women who have previously untreated stage III breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the clinical response rate to docetaxel doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide as primary therapy in women with stage III breast cancer II Determine the pathologic complete response rate to this treatment regimen in this patient population III Assess the side effects and toxicity profile of this treatment regimen in these patients

OUTLINE This is an open label multicenter study Patients receive doxorubicin IV over 5-10 minutes followed by cyclophosphamide IV over 5-10 minutes and docetaxel IV over 1 hour Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Within 5 weeks following completion of chemotherapy operable patients achieving complete or partial response undergo mastectomy segmental mastectomy or lumpectomy with nodal dissection Patients with positive surgical tumor margins may undergo an additional surgical procedure Patients are followed for survival

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 40 patients will be accrued for this study within 1 year
