Brief Summary: RATIONALE Removing axillary lymph nodes may be effective in stopping the spread of breast cancer cells It is not yet known if surgery to remove breast cancer is more effective with or without lymph node removal

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of breast surgery with or without removal of axillary lymph nodes in treating women who have stage I or stage IIA breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare local and systemic disease-free survival ipsilateral axillary relapse occurrence of postmastectomy syndrome and overall survival of elderly women with clinically operable stage I or IIA breast cancer who subsequently receive adjuvant tamoxifen after treatment with breast surgery with or without axillary node dissection
Compare the toxicity of these regimens in these patients
Compare the quality of life in patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to whether they received prior primary surgery yes vs no and participating center

Arm I Patients undergo mastectomy lumpectomy or quadrantectomy with axillary clearance Patients then receive oral tamoxifen for 5 years Patients may also undergo sentinel node biopsy
Arm II Patients undergo surgery as in arm I without axillary clearance Patients then receive oral tamoxifen for 5 years

Patients in both arms who undergo breast-conserving surgery may receive optional radiotherapy for 5-6 weeks to the remaining breast tissue chest and lung Upon recurrence in the conserved breast patients undergo total mastectomy those in arm II who experience ipsilateral axillary recurrence undergo surgical excision Adjuvant tamoxifen and follow up are continued

Quality of life is assessed

Patients are followed every 3 months for 1 year every 6 months while receiving tamoxifen and then annually thereafter

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 1020 patients will be accrued for this study within approximately 5 years
