Brief Summary: RATIONALE Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die Colony-stimulating factors such as G-CSF may increase the number of immune cells found in bone marrow or peripheral blood and may help a person s immune system recover from the side effects of chemotherapy

PURPOSE Phase III trial to study the effectiveness of docetaxel and epirubicin with and without G-CSF in treating women with metastatic breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES I Determine the maximum tolerated dose and recommended phase II dose of docetaxel in combination with epirubicin and filgrastim G-CSF as first-line therapy in women with metastatic breast cancer phase II closed as of 03272000 II Determine the pharmacokinetic profile of docetaxel and epirubicin in these patients III Evaluate the toxicity of this regimen given at the recommended phase II dose IV Determine the response rate and duration of response in patients treated with this regimen

OUTLINE This is a multicenter dose-escalation study of epirubicin and docetaxel Patients receive epirubicin IV over 15 minutes followed by docetaxel IV over 60 minutes on day 1 Patients also receive filgrastim G-CSF subcutaneously on days 4-13 Treatment continues every 3 weeks for at least 6 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity Cohorts of 3-6 patients receive escalating doses of epirubicin and docetaxel until the maximum tolerated dose MTD is determined The MTD is defined as the dose in which at least 2 of 6 patients experience dose-limiting toxicity Additional patients will be accrued to receive treatment at the recommended phase II dose phase II closed as of 03272000 Patients are followed at 1 month and then every 3 months for survival

PROJECTED ACCRUAL Approximately 15-20 patients will be accrued within 4-5 months for the phase I portion of the study A total of 15-30 patients will be accrued within 7-8 months for the phase II portion of the study closed as of 03272000
