This randomized pilot clinical trial studies omega-3 fatty acid or celecoxib in treating patients with breast cancer planning to undergo surgery. Omega-3 fatty acid may stimulate the immune system in different ways and stop tumor cells from growing. Celecoxib may stop the growth of tumor cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. It is not yet known whether omega-3 fatty acid or celecoxib is more effective in treating breast cancer.
