Arzoxifene or Tamoxifen in Preventing Breast Cancer in Premenopausal Women at High Risk for Breast Cancer
A Phase II Study of a Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulator (LY353381) vs. Tamoxifen vs. Placebo in Premenopausal Women With and Increased Risk for Breast Cancer
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming, growing, or coming back. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using arzoxifene or tamoxifen may prevent breast cancer by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. The use of arzoxifene or tamoxifen may keep breast cancer from forming in women at high risk for breast cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized phase II trial is studying arzoxifene to see how well it works compared to tamoxifen or a placebo in preventing breast cancer in premenopausal women at high risk for breast cancer.
Study Overview

Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
OBJECTIVES:
- Compare the effect of arzoxifene vs tamoxifen vs placebo on surrogate endpoints biomarkers, especially systemic insulin-like growth factor levels, in women at high risk for breast cancer.
- Compare the toxic effects, biologic effects, clinical pharmacology, and pharmacodynamics of these drugs in these participants.
- Determine the effect of these drugs on surrogate endpoint biomarkers in participants with BRCA1 and BRCA2 mutations.
- Determine the feasibility of a chemoprevention study in participants with a strong family history of breast cancer.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, placebo-controlled, double-blind study. Participants are randomized to 1 of 3 treatment arms.
- Arm I: Participants receive oral tamoxifen once daily.
- Arm II: Participants receive oral arzoxifene once daily.
- Arm III: Participants receive an oral placebo once daily. In all arms, treatment continues for 6 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity. After the completion of 6 months of treatment, participants are offered the opportunity to continue treatment with their assigned study drug for an additional 6 months. Participants randomized to receive placebo are offered treatment with arzoxifene for an additional 6 months.
After completion of study treatment, participants are followed annually.
PROJECTED ACCRUAL: A total of 120 participants will be accrued for this study.

Description
DISEASE CHARACTERISTICS:
Estimated probability of carrying a BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation ≥ 10% AND meets one of the following criteria:
Participants must have first-degree relatives (FDRs)* or second-degree relatives (SDRs)* (with an intervening male relative) with breast or ovarian cancer who satisfy one of the following criteria:
High-risk breast/ovarian cancer (non-Jewish families)
- One FDR ≤ 40 years old** diagnosed with breast cancer
- At least two FDRs or SDRs diagnosed with breast cancer at ≤ 50 years old OR had bilateral breast cancer
- One FDR or one SDR diagnosed with breast cancer at ≤ 50 years old OR had bilateral breast cancer AND one FDR or SDR diagnosed with ovarian cancer
- Three FDRs and/or SDRs diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer (at least one in case of ovarian cancer)
- Two FDRs and/or SDRs diagnosed with ovarian cancer
- One male FDR or SDR diagnosed with breast cancer and one FDR or SDR (male or female) diagnosed with breast or ovarian cancer
Moderate-risk breast /ovarian cancer (non-Jewish families)
- Two FDRs diagnosed with breast cancer with one ≤ 50 years old and/or both < 60 years old
- One FDR and one SDR (mother or sister and maternal aunt or maternal grandmother) diagnosed with breast cancer if the sum of their ages is ≥ 118 years
- One FDR and one SDR (mother or sister and paternal aunt or paternal grandmother) diagnosed with breast cancer if the sum of their ages is ≥ 78 years
- Two SDRs (both maternal or both paternal) diagnosed with breast cancer if the sum of their ages is ≤ 98 years
- One FDR with ovarian cancer
High-risk breast/ovarian cancer (Jewish families )
- At least one FDR or SDR diagnosed with breast cancer at ≤ 50 years old
- At least one FDR or SDR diagnosed with ovarian cancer
- At least one FDR or SDR diagnosed with breast cancer at any age AND one FDR or SDR diagnosed with breast and/or ovarian cancer
- At least one male FDR or SDR diagnosed with breast cancer NOTE: *FDRs are parents, siblings, and children of the participant; SDRs are aunts, uncles, grandparents, grandchildren, nieces, nephews, or half siblings of the participant
NOTE: **Age is approximated to the earliest age possible (e.g., a relative diagnosed in their 40's should be considered 40)
- Patterns of cancer cases must all be on the maternal or paternal side of the family
Participants not meeting any of the above FDR or SDR criteria may provide medical documentation stating that they, a FDR, or a SDR carry BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations
