Summary

RATIONALE: Sunitinib malate and exemestane may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving sunitinib malate and exemestane before surgery may make the tumor smaller and reduce the amount of normal tissue that needs to be removed.

PURPOSE: This randomized phase I/II trial is studying the side effects and best dose of sunitinib malate to see how well it works when given together with exemestane in treating postmenopausal women with breast cancer.
