  Purpose

This 2 arm study will evaluate the effect of Avastin, in combination with chemotherapy or endocrine therapy, as preoperative treatment in patients with HER2 negative breast cancer. Patients will be randomized to receive either chemotherapy (FEC100 for 4 x 3weekly cycles or endocrine therapy (an aromatase inhibitor daily for 24 weeks)with or without Avastin (15mg/kg iv every 3 weeks).The anticipated time on study treatment is 3-12 months, and the target sample size is 100-500 individuals.
