Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Monoclonal antibodies such as trastuzumab can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells Radiation therapy uses high-energy x-rays to damage tumor cells It is not yet known which regimen of chemotherapy plus radiation therapy with or without trastuzumab is more effective in treating breast cancer

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare two different chemotherapy regimens plus radiation therapy with or without trastuzumab in treating women who have breast cancer that has spread to lymph nodes in the axilla under the arm
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the efficacy of adjuvant cyclophosphamide epirubicin and fluorouracil vs adjuvant docetaxel and epirubicin in terms of 5-year survival without relapse in women with nonmetastatic adenocarcinoma of the breast with lymph node invasion
Determine survival of patients treated with these regimens
Compare the tolerability of trastuzumab Herceptin in patients treated with these regimens
Determine the efficacy and tolerability of trastuzumab in patients with hormone receptor-positive tumors
Evaluate the quality of life of patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized open-label multicenter study Patients are stratified according to participating center Patients are treated in 2 parts

Part I Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive fluorouracil IV or epirubicin IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1 Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 6 courses Patients then undergo radiotherapy 5 days a week for 5 weeks
Arm II Patients receive epirubicin IV over 10 minutes and docetaxel IV over 1 hour on day 1 Treatment repeats every 3 weeks for 6 courses Patients then undergo radiotherapy as in arm I

Patients with HER2neu-positive tumors then proceed to part II Patients with HER2neu-negative tumors receive no further treatment

Patients with hormone estrogen or progesterone receptor-positive tumors also receive oral tamoxifen daily beginning after chemotherapy is completed and continuing for 5 years

Part II Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive trastuzumab Herceptin IV over 30-90 minutes every 3 weeks for 1 year
Arm II Patients are followed without treatment Patients not receiving trastuzumab are followed at 4 months 6 months every 4 months for 1 year and then every 6 months for 3 years Patients receiving trastuzumab are followed at 4 months and then every 6 months for 3 years

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 2600 patients will be accrued for this study within 3 years
