Conditions
Intervention / Treatment
Detailed Description
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the recommended phase II dose of topical bexarotene 1% (weight by weight [w/w]) gel for evaluation in healthy women. (Dose Escalation Group) II. Conduct an intervention of topical 1% bexarotene gel to an unaffected breast of healthy women at high risk for breast cancer for 4 weeks at the maximum tolerated dose (MTD) as determined during the dose escalation group phase to assess bexarotene concentration in the breast tissue. (Dose Expansion Group)
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To detect bexarotene concentration in the serum at baseline and at 4 weeks of treatment.
II. To detect bexarotene concentration in the breast tissue at 4 weeks of treatment in the dose escalation group.
III. To investigate the effects of topical bexarotene on serum biomarkers, we will determine the change from baseline in i) lipid biomarkers (total cholesterol, triglycerides, low density lipoprotein [LDL], high density lipoprotein [HDL]), ii) thyroid function biomarkers (thyroid stimulating hormone [TSH], T4, T3), iii) calcium.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVE:
I. To examine changes in gene expression associated with retinoid action. (Dose Expansion Group)
OUTLINE: This is a dose-escalation study.
Group 1 will apply 10mg bexarotene topically to one breast every other day (QOD) for 4 weeks; Group 2 will apply 10mg bexarotene topically to one breast every other day (QOD) for 1 week and then daily for 3 weeks after confirmation that toxicity is at an acceptable range; Group 3 will apply 10mg bexarotene topically to one breast every other day (QOD) for 1 week, then daily for 1 week, and then 20mg daily for 2 weeks after confirmation that toxicity is at an acceptable range.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed up at 30 days.

Dose Limiting Toxicity (DLT) is defined as a grade 2 skin adverse event that persists for at least 6 days or any grade 3 or greater adverse event possibly, probably, or definitely related to the study drug.
In addition, a DLT will be a grade 2 skin adverse event that recurs and persists for at least 3 days.

Serum biomarkers to be tested will be total cholesterol, triglycerides, low-density lipoprotein, high-density lipoprotein, thyroid-stimulating hormone, T4, T3, and calcium.
Will be summarized using mean, standard deviation and median (range) for continuous variables at each time point.
Wilcoxon rank-sum test may be used to examine the difference of continuous variables between participants' characteristics groups.

Linear mixed effect model will be applied to model the biomarker change over time for all participants.
Appropriate transformation and regression model will be used to ensure the model fit.
