Measure
Chemotherapy With GM-CSF
Doxorubicin and Cyclophosphamide (AC) Followed by Weekly Carboplatin/Paclitaxel with Granulocyte-macrophage colony-stimulating factor (GM-CSF) (day 2-6) This regimen consists of intravenous administration of doxorubicin (Adriamycin) followed by cyclophosphamide (Cytoxan) every 14 days for a total of four cycles, unless stable disease or clinical progression is documented. Two weeks after completion of the last dose of AC, weekly Carboplatin/paclitaxel will be given for 3 weeks, followed by 1 week of rest, for a total of 12. Each clinic visit will last approximately 1 hour.

PRIMARY outcome

Timeframe: 5 years

Population: Of the 48 study participants, one patient refused preoperative but received standard adjuvant AC followed by docetaxel (without trastuzumab), relapsed, and died. Therefore, 47 participants were analyzed.

Clinical response (CR): Normal breast on physical exam. No mass, no thickening, no erythema, no peau d'orange.
