Measure
Treatment (Neoadjuvant Chemotherapy Before Surgery)
Patients receive neoadjuvant chemotherapy comprising sunitinib malate PO once daily and paclitaxel IV over 1 hour once weekly for 8-12 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning within 3 weeks of completion of sunitinib malate and paclitaxel, patients receive doxorubicin IV once weekly for 15 weeks, cyclophosphamide PO once daily for 15 weeks, and filgrastim SC on days 2-7 for 16 weeks in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 3-6 weeks after completion of chemotherapy, patients undergo surgery. sunitinib malate: Given PO paclitaxel: Given IV doxorubicin hydrochloride: Given IV cyclophosphamide: Given PO filgrastim: Given SC therapeutic conventional surgery: Undergo surgery laboratory biomarker analysis: Correlative studies flow cytometry: Correlative studies
