Brief Summary: RATIONALE Chemoprevention therapy uses certain drugs to try to prevent the development or recurrence of cancer It is not yet known whether bexarotene is effective in preventing breast cancer

PURPOSE Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of bexarotene in preventing breast cancer in women who are at genetic risk of developing breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine whether bexarotene can modify immunophenotypic markers related to breast cancer progression in women at high genetic risk for breast cancer

OUTLINE This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multicenter study Patients are stratified according to menopausal status women with a uterus who have not had a menstrual period for more than 1 year vs any woman over 55 years old vs women 55 years and under without a uterus whose follicle-stimulating hormone is in the postmenopausal range Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Patients receive oral bexarotene once daily on days 1-28
Arm II Patients receive oral placebo as in arm I In both arms treatment continues in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or elevation of triglycerides to greater than 800 mgdL Patients undergo 2 breast biopsies in the same location on days 1 and 29

Patients are followed at 30 days

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 100 patients 50 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study within 4 years
