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: This randomized phase II trial is studying three regimens of combination chemotherapy to compare how well they work in treating women with stage I or stage II breast cancer.
