Phase III, Randomized Study Of Epirubicin/Cyclophosphamide Followed By Taxane (Sequential Chemotherapy) Versus Epirubicin/Taxane (Concurrent Chemotherapy) As Adjuvant Treatment For Operable, Node-Positive Breast Cancer

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.
