Brief Summary

Outcome Measures

Primary Outcomes (2)

  • disease-free survival

    Up to 5 years

  • overall survival

    Up to 5 years

Study Arms (1)

Patient interviewing + blood sampling

Patients were interviewed at the time of the primary cancer surgery to determine the menstrual history. Blood sampling occurred within 1 day of surgery, and serum samples were shipped frozen to a central laboratory (Mayo Medical Laboratory, Rochester, MN) for E2, Pg, and LH determinations. Serum hormone levels, menstrual cycle length, and day of last menses were used to determine the menstrual phase at which surgery occurred. Patients were observed every 6 months for the first year postregistration and annually for the next 2 to 10 years postregistration for adjuvant therapy information, disease recurrence, and death.

Behavioral: patient interviewing to obtain menstrual historyProcedure: blood sampling

Study Population

This trial enrolled premenopausal women age 18 to 55 years who had regular menstrual cycles of 21- to 35-days duration and pathologic stages I to II breast cancer, in whom all gross disease-including ductal carcinoma in situ-was surgically removed either in a one-stage or two-stage procedure.

You may qualify if:

  • Women age 18 to 55 years
  • Regular menstrual cycles of 21- to 35-days duration
  • Pathologic stages I to II breast cancer, in whom all gross disease-including ductal carcinoma in situ-was surgically removed either in a one-stage or two-stage procedure.
  • required serum be drawn within 1 calendar day of the lumpectomy/mastectomy for women who underwent a one-stage procedure and within 1 calendar day of each stage for women who underwent a two-stage procedure.

You may not qualify if:

  • Lactation within the past 3 months
  • galactorrhea
  • neoadjuvant therapy
  • previous breast cancer, and history of any cancer (except squamous or basal cell skin carcinoma) in which the patient was not disease-free for at least 10 years
