Multi-Center Study of Serum Biomarkers to Characterize the Effects of Therapy on Ovarian Reserve in Premenopausal Women With Early-stage Breast Cancer BRCA Mutations

Inclusion Criteria:

For Premenopausal Women with Early Stage Breast Cancer

- Premenopausal female patients age 18-44 with breast cancer as defined as:

a. AJCC Stage 0-III breast cancer, regardless of hormone-receptor status or
HER2-overexpression, before the start of planned adjuvant or neoadjuvant chemotherapy
and/or hormonal therapy. If chemotherapy is planned, the regimen must be either CMF,

lapatinib, etc.) are allowed in addition to the above therapies.

- ECOG performance status 0-1

- Have regular menstrual cycles; patients can have no more than 1 irregular cycle (too
early or too late) within the past year and/or at least 10 spontaneous cycles within
the past year.

Subject Inclusion:

For Unaffected High Risk Premenopausal Women with BRCA mutations

- Premenopausal Women ages 30-45 with known BRCA mutations

- ECOG performance status 0-1

- Have regular menstrual (21-35 days); patients can have no more than 1 irregular cycle
(too early or too late) within the past year and/or at least 10 spontaneous cycles
within the past year.

- No history of breast or ovary cancer.

Exclusion Criteria:

For Cohort of Premenopausal Women with Early Stage Breast Cancer

- Prior therapy for breast cancer or any other cancer, such as chemotherapy, hormonal
therapy or immunotherapy.

- Ovarian resection, unilateral or bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy or radiation to
pelvic region.

- Plans for risk-reducing bilateral oophorectomy within one year of completion of
chemotherapy.

- Prior known infertility; infertility is defined as one year of inability to conceive

- Current pregnancy.

Subject Exclusion Criteria:

For Unaffected High Risk Premenopausal Women with BRCA mutation

- Prior chemotherapy or immunotherapy for breast cancer or any other cancer

- Ovarian resection, unilateral or bilateral oophorectomy, hysterectomy or radiation to
pelvic region or ovarian disease (e.g. polycystic ovarian syndrome).

- Plans for risk-reducing bilateral oophorectomy within one year

- Prior known infertility; (except women who have undergone voluntary tubal ligation);
infertility is defined as one year of inability to conceive despite unprotected
intercourse and/or the need to use medication (e.g clomiphene) or assisted
reproductive technology (e.g. intrauterine insemination or in vitro fertilization) to
attempt pregnancy.
