Purpose
Primary Objectives:
- To prospectively evaluate the predictive accuracy of a previously discovered gene expression profile-based test to foretell pathologic complete response (pCR) to preoperative paclitaxel/FAC (5-fluorouracil, doxorubicin, cyclophosphamide) chemotherapy for stage I-III breast cancer.
- To evaluate if our genomic predictive test is specific to the paclitaxel/FAC regimen or it also predicts increased sensitivity to FAC only chemotherapy.
Secondary Objectives:
- To discover a molecular profile that is associated with pCR after FAC chemotherapy alone
- To establish a prospectively collected gene expression profile data bank of breast cancer for future studies
- To compare the pCR rates between patients who receive 6 courses FAC and those who receive sequential paclitaxel /FAC chemotherapies.

- Pathologic Complete Response Rate in breast and axillary lymph nodes [ Time Frame: After completion of preoperative chemotherapy then every 6 months for 10 years. ] [ Designated as safety issue: No ]Pathologic Complete Response Rate after completion of preoperative chemotherapy, based on routine clinical pathology report where Pathologic complete response defined as complete absence of any viable invasive cancer cells in resected breast and lymph nodes. Specimens in breast may contain in situ cancer (ductal or lobular carcinoma in situ) and still be considered complete response.

Patients must have intact or measurable residual cancer (by mammogram, ultra sonogram or physical exam) in the breast. Women of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test (serum or urine beta Human chorionic gonadotropin (HCG)) prior to initiation of chemotherapy.
- Patients should have adequate organ function to tolerate chemotherapy.
- Patient must be willing to undergo a one-time pretreatment research FNA biopsy
Exclusion Criteria:
- Patients who have completed lumpectomy, segmental mastectomy or modified radical mastectomy and, therefore no longer have any measurable cancer left in their breast are not eligible.
- Patients with stage IV, metastatic breast cancers are not eligible.
- Patients for whom anthracycline or paclitaxel chemotherapies are contraindicated, for example Patients who are pregnant or lactating are not eligible.
