Acolbifene in Preventing Cancer in Premenopausal Women at High Risk of Breast Cancer

Completed · Phase 2

Conditions studied: Breast Cancer

In brief

This phase II trial is studying how well acolbifene works in preventing cancer in premenopausal women at high risk of breast cancer. Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of acolbifene may stop cancer from growing or coming back.

• Prior random periareolar fine needle aspiration (RPFNA) showing atypical hyperplasia
• Family history consistent with hereditary breast cancer, as indicated by 1 of the following criteria:
• >= 4 relatives with breast cancer
• >= 2 relatives diagnosed with breast cancer at ≤ 50 years of age
• Breast and ovarian cancer diagnosed in same relative
• No suspicion for breast cancer on baseline mammogram performed between days 1-10 of menstrual cycle within 3 months prior to screening baseline RPFNA

• Estimated visual mammographic breast density category >= 5% on mammogram performed within 6 months prior to initiation of study drug
• Has regular menstrual cycles (between 21 and 35 days) unless using extended regimen oral contraceptives or a contraceptive device (e.g., Mirena IUD) Values for metabolic profile and blood count within normal limits
• Absolute granulocyte count > 1,000/mm\^3

• Fertile patients must use effective contraception during and for 3 months after completion of study treatment

You may not qualify if…

• pregnant or nursing
• nursing within the past 6 months

• History of symptomatic endometriosis with pelvic pain, poorly controlled migraines, or hot flashes
• History of deep venous thrombosis
• History of allergic reactions attributed to compounds of similar chemical or biological composition to the study agent
• Other condition or concurrent illness that, in the opinion of the investigator, would make the patient a poor candidate for RPFNA
