Brief Title: Pilot Study of the Effect of Duavee® on Benign Breast Tissue Proliferation
Official Title: Pilot Study of the Effect of Duavee® on Benign Breast Tissue Proliferation in Peri or Post-menopausal Women at Moderate Risk for Development of Breast Cancer
Study ID: NCT02729701
Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to learn whether daily use of Duavee® is accepted and tolerated by peri- and post-menopausal women at moderate risk for development of breast cancer.
Detailed Description: Duavee® is tissue specific estrogen complex of bazedoxifene plus conjugated estrogen which is FDA approved for relief of menopausal symptoms and prevention of osteoporosis in women with a uterus who have not been diagnosed with estrogen dependent neoplasia. The overall purpose of this research is to demonstrate in a preliminary fashion that despite reduction in menopausal symptoms, (Duavee®) does not increase and may decrease proliferation in benign breast tissue in a cohort of peri- or post-menopausal women at moderately increased risk for breast cancer. If this pilot shows rapid accrual, good retention, and lack of significant increase in the risk biomarker Ki-67 in benign breast tissue, a larger prevention trial is envisioned
