RATIONALE: Studying samples of urine in the laboratory from women with breast cancer may help doctors learn whether tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors alter the metabolism of estrogens.
PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying the effect of tamoxifen or an aromatase inhibitor on estrogen metabolism in women undergoing treatment for newly diagnosed breast cancer.

Drug: tamoxifen citrate Procedure: aromatase inhibition therapy Procedure: high performance liquid chromatography Procedure: laboratory biomarker analysis Procedure: mass spectrometry Procedure: medical chart review |
Study Type: | Interventional |
Study Design: | Treatment, Open Label |
Official Title: | Effects of Therapeutic Agents on Estrogens in the Breast |
Estimated Enrollment: | 100 |
Study Start Date: | May 2005 |
Estimated Primary Completion Date: | December 2015 (Final data collection date for primary outcome measure) |
OBJECTIVES:
OUTLINE: Patients are stratified according to planned therapy (tamoxifen citrate vs aromatase inhibitor).
Patients receive tamoxifen citrate or an aromatase inhibitor as planned. Urine samples (and nipple aspirate fluid, if possible) are collected before beginning treatment and after 2-6 months of treatment. Samples are analyzed for 40 estrogen metabolites, conjugates, and depurinating DNA adducts by ultraperformance liquid chromatography with tandem mass spectrometric detection.
Patients' information, including race, body mass index, age at menarche, menopausal status, age at menopause if applicable, smoking history, alcohol consumption, pregnancy history including age at each pregnancy, lactation, history of benign breast disease, hysterectomy, and disease type, is collected through medical record review.
