Summary
Bevacizumab is an angiogenesis inhibitor which means it works to stop blood vessel formation in tumors. Without new blood vessels, the growth of a tumor is slowed. Chemotherapy drugs kill cancer cells more directly. This study will evaluate: * How bevacizumab, given with chemotherapy before surgery, and then bevacizumab given alone after surgery, will affect locally advanced breast tumors * Side effects from adding bevacizumab to chemotherapy * Whether adding bevacizumab to chemotherapy for breast cancer will affect the heart * If receiving bevacizumab will have any effect on how patients recover from surgery * Side effects of the combinations of drugs used in this study
