Brief Summary: RATIONALE Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming The use of recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin may prevent breast cancer in premenopausal women with BRCA1 mutations

PURPOSE This clinical trial is studying recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin in preventing breast cancer in premenopausal women with BRCA1 mutations
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Determine whether the genomic profiles of breast epithelial cells of high-breast cancer-risk women as defined by their positive BRCA1 status and nulliparous condition express a signature indicative of high-risk

Secondary

Determine whether women identified to express a high-breast cancer-risk signature will revert it to a low-risk signature after a 90-day treatment with r-hCG which should have induced breast differentiation and genomic changes that would serve as biomarkers indicative of decreased breast cancer risk

OUTLINE Patients receive recombinant human chorionic gonadotropin subcutaneously three times weekly Treatment continues weekly for 90 days in the absence of unacceptable toxicity

Benign breast tissue specimens are collected by core needle biopsy at baseline day 90 and day 270 Tissue samples are analyzed by cytopathology for epithelial normality Ki67 immunohistochemical staining for cell proliferation cDNA microarray for gene expression and serum studies for hormone levels and biomarker determinations

After completion of study treatment patients are followed for 24 weeks
