Purpose
RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy, such as docetaxel and carboplatin, use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Monoclonal antibodies, such as trastuzumab, can locate tumor cells and either kill them or deliver tumor-killing substances to them without harming normal cells. It is not yet known whether docetaxel and carboplatin are more effective with or without trastuzumab in treating breast cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying how well giving docetaxel together with carboplatin and trastuzumab before surgery works compared to docetaxel and carboplatin alone before surgery in treating women with locally advanced breast cancer.

- Evaluate the objective response rate of patients treated with Taxotere/carboplatin with or without Herceptin preoperatively. [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Establish profiles of biomarkers that predict chemoresponsiveness of tumors, using methods for conventional pathology studies and experimental molecular analysis. [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- To establish profiles of angiogenic mediators of locally advanced breast cancer and its impact in drug response and prognosis. [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Study the role of HER-2/neu and LRP/major vault protein in chemotherapy-induced tumor response [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
- Determine unique gene expression patterns of responder and nonresponder tumors to the prescribed neoadjuvant chemotherapy, using DNA-microarray hybridization techniques [ Time Frame: 5 years ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]
