Adjuvant Epirubicin/Cytoxan Followed By A Taxane VS. Epirubicin/Taxane As Treatment For Node-Positive Breast Cancer
Completed
The purpose of this study is to compare two combinations of drugs, epirubicin given with a taxane (ET) or epirubicin given with cyclophosphamide (cytoxan) and followed by a taxane to see if one of the combinations is better at preventing or delaying the time for breast cancer recurrence and death after 3 years. The study will also evaluate the side effects of both treatment combinations.

Cyclophosphamide, Bortezomib, and Dexamethasone in Treating Patients With Newly Diagnosed Multiple Myeloma
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy such as cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone work in different ways to stop the growth of cancer cells, either by killing the cells or by stopping them from dividing. Bortezomib may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. Giving cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone together with bortezomib may kill more cancer cells. PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying giving cyclophosphamide and dexamethasone together with b... Read More

Chemotherapy in Treating Women With Breast Cancer That Can Be Surgically Removed
Completed
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. It is not yet known if chemotherapy given before surgery is more effective with or without docetaxel given before or after surgery for breast cancer. PURPOSE: Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of chemotherapy using doxorubicin and cyclophosphamide with or without docetaxel in treating women who have stage II or stage III breast cancer.
