Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Giving drugs in different combinations may kill more tumor cells

PURPOSE Randomized phase II trial to compare the effectiveness of cyclophosphamide methotrexate and fluorouracil with mitoxantrone in treating older patients with recurrent or metastatic breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the response rate and duration of response of elderly patients with advanced breast cancer treated with first-line chemotherapy with mitigated classical CMF cyclophosphamidemethotrexatefluorouracil vs mitoxantrone DHAD II Define the morbidity of CMF and DHAD in elderly patients III Determine quality of life in these patients

OUTLINE This is a randomized study Patients are stratified by participating institution The first group receives oral cyclophosphamide on days 1 through 14 and intravenous methotrexate and fluorouracil on days 1 and 8 Courses repeat every 4 weeks for a maximum of 6 courses The second group receives intravenous mitoxantrone every 3 weeks for a maximum of 8 courses Concomitant therapy with hepatotoxic or nephrotoxic drugs eg NSAIDs or corticosteroids even as antiemetics is not permitted in either group Radiotherapy is allowed provided no more than 50 of the bone marrow is irradiated and at least 1 indicator lesion is unirradiated Patients who complete therapy are followed every 3 months until disease progression

PROJECTED ACCRUAL 60 patients will be accrued over approximately 1 year If extreme differences between arms exist after entry of 30 patients accrual may be stopped early
