A Pilot Pre-Operative Window Trial of Black Cohosh in Women with Ductal Carcinoma in situ

Conditions

Breast Ductal Carcinoma In Situ (DCIS)

What is the purpose of this trial?

The overarching hypothesis of our research is that black cohosh has potential to be a well-tolerated, effective agent for the treatment of early breast cancer.  This pilot study represents a first step in exploring this hypothesis by demonstrating preliminary evidence of specific anti-tumor effect of black cohosh on areas of ductal carcinoma in situ (DCIS) in the breast.
