Measure
Arm 1 (Paclitaxel, Carboplatin)
Patients receive paclitaxel IV and carboplatin IV on day 1 (course 1 only) or day 2 (courses 2-12). Treatment repeats every 7 days for 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 21 days after the last course, patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Paclitaxel: Given IV Carboplatin: Given IV Doxorubicin: Given IV Cyclophosphamide: Given IV
Arm 2 (Veliparib, Paclitaxel, Carboplatin)
Patients receive veliparib PO BID on days 1-5. Patients also receive paclitaxel IV and carboplatin IV on day 3 (course 1 only) or day 4 (courses 2-12). Treatment repeats every 7 days for 12 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Beginning 21 days after the last course, patients receive doxorubicin hydrochloride IV and cyclophosphamide IV on day 1. Treatment repeats every 21 days for 4 courses in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Count of Participants That Achieve Pathologic Complete Response (PCR)
3 Participants
3 Participants

SECONDARY outcome

Timeframe: Up to 3 years

The count and percentage of subjects with each category of overall clinical response will be summarized by presence of baseline measureable disease (i.e., complete response \[CR\], partial response \[PR\], stable disease \[SD\], progressive disease \[PD\], unable to evaluate \[UE\], neurogenerative disease \[ND\]). Evaluated per Response Evaluation Criteria In Solid Tumors (RECIST v1.0) as assessed b MRI: Complete Response (CR), Disappearance of all target lesions; Partial Response (PR), \>=30% decrease in the sum of the longest diameter of target lesions; Overall Response (OR) = CR + PR. Beta will be used as priors for combination regimens in calculating the posterior distribution of the pathologic complete response \[pCR\] for each respective treatment group. Among subjects with measurable disease, a 95% credible region will be calculated for the odds ratio for each treatment combination relative to each other.
