Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Colony-stimulating factors such as filgrastim may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a persons immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well giving combination chemotherapy together with filgrastim and radiation therapy works in treating patients with stage II or stage IIIA breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the feasibility of administering adjuvant paclitaxel dose-intensive cyclophosphamide and filgrastim G-CSF followed by doxorubicin and then radiotherapy in patients with stage II or IIIA breast cancer involving 4 lymph nodes
Determine the incidence of febrile neutropenia in these patients during the first course of therapy
Compare the incidence of febrile neutropenia and duration of neutropenia in patients treated with this regimen with that seen in patients treated on protocol CWRU-4194
Determine the disease-free and overall survival of patients treated with this regimen
Evaluate the quality of life of these patients
Correlate HER-2neu overexpression with disease-free and overall survival in these patients

OUTLINE Patients receive paclitaxel IV continuously and cyclophosphamide IV over 2 hours on days 1-3 Patients also receive filgrastim G-CSF subcutaneously SC beginning on day 5 and continuing until day 14 or until blood counts recover Treatment repeats every 21 days for 3 courses Patients then receive doxorubicin IV on day 1 and G-CSF SC on days 2-11 every 21 days for 4 courses

Patients with hormone receptor positive disease also receive oral tamoxifen daily for 5 years beginning at the completion of chemotherapy

Beginning 3-6 weeks after the completion of chemotherapy patients receive radiotherapy 5 days a week for 6-7 weeks

Quality of life is assessed days 1 and 4 of the first course of chemotherapy day 1 of the second course the last day of the final course and at 6 months after the completion of treatment

Patients are followed every 3 months for 2 years and then every 6 months thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 26 patients will be accrued for this study
