Study Details

Study Description

Brief Summary

This phase II trial tests whether low-dose aspirin can affect markers of inflammation in postpartum (after childbirth) patients with benign breast disease planning to have a breast biopsy. Chronic inflammation may increase the risk of postpartum related breast cancer. Low-dose aspirin is a non-steroidal anti-inflammatory drug. Giving low-dose aspirin may affect markers of inflammation in blood and tissue and may prevent postpartum related breast cancer.

Condition or Disease Intervention/Treatment Phase
  • Procedure: Biospecimen Collection
  • Drug: Low-Dose Aspirin
  • Other: Questionnaire Administration
  • Procedure: Ultrasound-Guided Biopsy
Phase 2

Detailed Description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVE:
  1. Pre- versus (vs) post-intervention change in postpartum-related breast cancer (PRBC) score.
SECONDARY OBJECTIVE:
  1. Pre- vs. post-intervention change in postpartum involution (PPI) signature score.
EXPLORATORY OBJECTIVES:
  1. Pre- vs. post-intervention change in percent of epithelial cells positive for COX-2, estrogen receptor (ER)/Ki67, gammaH2AX, and p16 in "normal" and in benign breast disease (BBD) lobule.

  2. Pre- vs. post-intervention change in serum C-reactive protein (CRP), estrogens, insulin/insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), and adipokines.

  3. Pre- vs. post-intervention changes in tissue and urine prostaglandins (PGs) and PGE2.

OUTLINE:

Patients undergo standard of care breast biopsy for assessment of abnormalities seen on imaging, as well as collection of blood during screening. If cancer is found, patient is taken off study and treatment options are discussed with treating physician.

Patients without a cancer finding on biopsy then receive low-dose aspirin orally (PO) daily and undergo collection of blood on study. Patients may undergo ultrasound guided breast biopsy as clinically indicated.

Arms and Interventions

Arm Intervention/Treatment
Experimental: Prevention (low-dose aspirin)

Patients undergo standard of care breast biopsy for assessment of abnormalities seen on imaging, as well as collection of blood during screening. If cancer is found, patient is taken off study and treatment options are discussed with treating physician. Patients without a cancer finding on biopsy then receive low-dose aspirin PO daily and undergo collection of blood on study. Patients may undergo ultrasound guided breast biopsy as clinically indicated.

  • Outcome Measures

    Primary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in pregnancy-related breast cancer (PRBC) score [Pre- versus (vs) post-intervention up to 30 days post interventions.]

      Will transform the biomarkers using Van der Waerden rank transformations. Will analyze data as within person differences for pre- versus post-treatment PRBC scores in tissues. The final mean difference in PRBC score point estimate and corresponding 95% confidence interval will be reported.

    Secondary Outcome Measures

    1. Change in postpartum involution (PPI) signature score [Pre- vs. post-intervention up to 30 days post interventions]

      Will be calculated pre- and post-intervention for each person. Within person differences will be analyzed. The correlation between the change in PRBC score and change in PPI signature will be assessed using a Pearson correlation if both the scores are normally distributed. If either score is non-normally distributed, a Spearman correlation will be used instead. The correlation coefficient point estimate and 95% confidence interval will be reported.

    Other Outcome Measures

    1. Change in percent of epithelial cells positive for COX-2, estrogen receptor (ER)/Ki67, gammaH2AX, and p16 in "normal" and in benign breast disease (BBD) lobules [Pre- vs. post-intervention up to 30 days post interventions]

      Will be calculated based on pre- and post-intervention for each person. Within person differences will be analyzed. The correlation between the change in PRBC score and change in PPI signature will be assessed using a Pearson correlation if both the scores are normally distributed.

    2. Change in serum C-reactive protein (CRP), estrogens, insulin/insulin-like growth factors (IGFs), and adipokines [Pre- vs. post-intervention up to 30 days post interventions]

      Will be measured pre- and post-intervention for each person. Within person differences will be analyzed. The correlation between the change in PRBC score and change in the respective serum measures will be assessed using a Pearson correlation if both the values are normally distributed.

    3. Changes in tissue and urine prostaglandins (PGs) and PGE2 [Pre- vs. post-intervention up to 30 days post interventions]

      Will be measured pre- and post-intervention for each person. Within person differences will be analyzed. The correlation between the change in PRBC score and change in the respective PGs will be assessed using a Pearson correlation if both the values are normally distributed.
