I am recently diagnosed with bc and have met with 2 different oncologists.  I am can go with either of the following 2 treatments: weekly carboplatin plus nabpaclitaxel (a stage 3 trial at UCI breast cancer research) OR the tried and true adramycin plus cytoxan every other week at a private hospital.  Any advice which of the two treatments I should go with?

I have cancer in both breasts and it is fairly agressive (tumor is 6 cm x 4 cm x 3 cm) but has not spread to the nodes.

I can't help with your question but... you might get more input if you post this question on the chemotherapy thread.  More women going through your situation would see it.

Good luck and I hope you get some answers.
