Brief Summary: RATIONALE: Drugs used in chemotherapy use different ways to stop tumor cells from dividing so they stop growing or die. Combining more than one drug may kill more tumor cells. PURPOSE: Phase II trial to study the effectiveness of combining sulindac with docetaxel in treating women who have metastatic or recurrent breast cancer.
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES: * Determine the response rate of women with metastatic or recurrent adenocarcinoma of the breast treated with sulindac and docetaxel. * Determine the time to progression of patients treated with this regimen. * Determine the toxicity of this regimen in these patients.

Courses repeat every 21 days in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. Patients are followed within 3-4 weeks.
