Extrait
RATIONALE: Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using anastrozole may fight breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. Fulvestrant may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells. It is not yet known whether anastrozole is more effective than fulvestrant before surgery and radiation therapy in treating patients with breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying anastrozole to see how well it works compared with fulvestrant in treating postmenopausal patients with breast cancer.
