Brief Summary:
RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development of cancer. Anastrozole may be effective in preventing breast cancer.
PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well anastrozole works in preventing breast cancer in postmenopausal women who are at increased risk for the disease.
PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial is studying how well anastrozole works in preventing breast cancer in postmenopausal women who are at increased risk for the disease.
Detailed Description:
OBJECTIVES:
Primary
* Determine the effectiveness of anastrozole in preventing breast cancer in postmenopausal women at increased risk for the disease.
Secondary
* Determine the role of this drug in preventing estrogen receptor-positive breast cancer in these participants.
* Determine the effect of this drug on breast cancer mortality in these participants.
* Determine the effect of this drug on other cancers, cardiovascular disease, fracture rates, and non-breast cancer deaths in these participants.
* Determine the tolerability and acceptability of side effects of this drug in these participants.
OUTLINE: This is a randomized, double-blind, placebo-controlled, multicenter study. Participants are stratified according to participating center. Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.
* Arm I: Participants receive oral anastrozole daily for 5 years.
* Arm II: Participants receive an oral placebo daily for 5 years. In both arms, treatment continues in the absence of the development of breast cancer (including ductal carcinoma in situ), a drop in the T-score below minus 4, or the occurrence of a new fragility fracture.
Participants are followed for at least a further 5 years.

ACCRUAL: A total of 3,864 participants were recruited for this study over 10 years.
