Phase II Study of Acolbifene in Pre-Menopausal Women at High Risk for Breast Cancer
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the effect of six months of acolbifene 20 mg/day on Ki-67 in high risk
premenopausal women with baseline hyperplasia +/- atypia and Ki-67 positivity of >= 2%..
SECONDARY OBJECTIVES:
I. To determine the effect of six months of acolbifene 20 mg/day on mammographic breast
density in high risk premenopausal women.
II. To determine the effect of six months of acolbifene 20 mg/day on serum levels of
follicular phase bioavailable estradiol, and luteal phase progesterone, testosterone, and
fasting IGF-1/IGFBP-3.
III. To determine the effect of six months of acolbifene 20 mg/day on epithelial cell
cytomorphology and molecular markers such as ER, PgR, and pS2.
IV. To determine the effect of six months of acolbifene on markers of cardiovascular risk
(C-reactive protein, functional AntiThrombin III, and fasting lipid profile) and bone
turnover markers associated with bone mineral density gain or loss (serum osteocalcin and
N-telopeptide crosslinks).
V. To assess any increase in reported hot flashes, menstrual cycle irregularities, pelvic
pain, musculoskeletal complaints, and fatigue from baseline.
OUTLINE:
Patients receive oral acolbifene hydrochloride once daily for 6 months in the absence of
unacceptable toxicity.
Patients undergo symptom assessment (hot flashes, menstrual abnormalities, pelvic pain,
muscle and joint pain, and fatigue) at baseline, 6-8 weeks, monthly for 6 months, and then
at 2 weeks after completion of study treatment.
Patients undergo random periareolar fine needle aspiration between days 1-10 of menstrual
cycle at baseline and at 6 months. Patients also undergo blood sample collection between
days 1-10 and days 20-24 of menstrual cycle at baseline and at 6 months. Samples taken
between days 1-10 of menstrual cycle are analyzed for Ki-67 expression, cytomorphology,
molecular markers (estrogen receptor, progesterone receptor, and pS2 expression), and
bioavailable estradiol levels. Samples taken between days 20-24 of menstrual cycle are
analyzed for progesterone, testosterone, IGF-1, IGFBP-3, lipid profile, bone-turnover
markers (osteocalcin and N-telopeptide crosslinks), C-reactive protein, and functional
antithrombin III.
After completion of study treatment, patients are followed at 2 weeks.
