Brief Summary: RATIONALE High estrogen levels may be associated with dense breast tissue and an increased risk of developing breast cancer Exemestane may be effective in preventing the development of breast cancer by decreasing estrogen levels and reducing breast density

PURPOSE Randomized clinical trial to study the effectiveness of exemestane in preventing the development of breast cancer by decreasing estrogen levels and reducing breast density in postmenopausal women who are at increased risk for breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Determine the efficacy of exemestane in decreasing breast density at least 1 grade in postmenopausal women with increased radiological breast density at increased risk for breast cancer
Determine whether the decrease in breast density is sustained 1 year after the cessation of this drug in these participants
Correlate the grade of breast density with bone density at baseline and at 1 year in participants treated with this drug
Determine the overall safety of this drug in terms of bone and lipid metabolism and toxicity in these participants
Determine the menopause-specific quality of life of participants treated with this drug

OUTLINE This is a randomized double-blind placebo-controlled multicenter study Participants are stratified according to baseline mammographic density grade 2 vs 3 vs 4 vs 5 vs 6 Participants are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms

Arm I Participants receive oral exemestane once daily for 1 year
Arm II Participants receive oral placebo once daily for 1 year In both arms treatment continues in the absence of disease or unacceptable toxicity

Quality of life is assessed at baseline and then at 3 6 9 12 18 and 24 months

Participants are followed at 18 and 24 months

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 120 participants 60 per treatment arm will be accrued for this study
