Brief Summary: RATIONALE Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer Letrozole may be effective in preventing the development or recurrence of breast cancer in postmenopausal women who are at increased risk of developing breast cancer because of elevated estradiol levels

PURPOSE This randomized phase II trial is studying how well letrozole works in preventing breast cancer in postmenopausal women with elevated estradiol levels
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

The primary outcome of the study is the change in bone mineral density following a year on letrozole vs a year on placebo

Secondary

Compare the safety acceptability and adherence to letrozole vs placebo in postmenopausal women at increased risk for the development or recurrence of breast cancer based on elevated plasma estradiol levels through evaluation of menopausal symptoms including hot flushes weight changes sexual functioning and genitourinary effects blood lipid levels markers of bone turnover and multidimensional quality of life
Determine the effect of letrozole-induced reduction of plasma estradiol levels on mammographic percent breast density
Obtain background information for a future large chemoprevention trial to address the question of whether a reduction in plasma estradiol levels can reduce the risk of breast cancer in postmenopausal women

OUTLINE This is a pilot randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multicenter study Patients are randomized to 21 experimental treatment placebo arms

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 110 patients 73 for arm I and 37 for arm II will be accrued for this study
