Eligibility Criteria
You may qualify if:
- Histologically proven breast cancer (invasive adenocarcinoma with at least one axillary lymph node showing evidence of tumor among a minimum of six resected lymph nodes).
- Definitive surgical treatment must be either mastectomy, or breast conserving surgery with axillary lymph node dissection for operable breast cancer. Margins of resected specimen from definitive surgery must be histologically free of invasive adenocarcinoma and ductal carcinoma.
You may not qualify if:
- Prior systemic anticancer therapy for breast cancer (immunotherapy, hormonotherapy, chemotherapy).
- Prior anthracycline therapy or taxoids (paclitaxel, docetaxel) for any malignancy.
