Brief Summary: 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 paclitaxel is more effective with or without carboplatin in treating stage IV breast cancer

PURPOSE Randomized phase III trial to compare the effectiveness of paclitaxel with or without carboplatin in treating women who have stage IV breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Compare the objective response rate in women treated with paclitaxel with or without carboplatin as first-line chemotherapy for metastatic breast cancer
Compare the overall survival time to disease progression and duration of response in these patients treated with these regimens
Compare the safety of these regimens in this patient population
Compare the quality of life of these patients treated with these regimens

OUTLINE This is a randomized multicenter study Patients are stratified according to prior adjuvant chemotherapy yes vs no and ECOG performance status 0-1 vs 2 Patients are randomized to one of two treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive paclitaxel IV over 1 hour weekly for 3 weeks
Arm IIPatients receive paclitaxel IV over 1 hour and carboplatin IV over 30 minutes weekly for 3 weeks

Treatment in both arms continues every 4 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity

Quality of life is assessed at baseline before each course during study and then after completion of study

Patients are followed every 3 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 220 patients will be accrued for this study
