2 Clinical Trials for Various Conditions
The purpose of this image acquisition study is to compare, in a Reader Study, the RI8 system used in conjunction with a conventional mammography to mammography alone, and to determine whether the addition of supplementary RI8 result will improve ROC area under the curve. The study is prospective, multi-center, sequential, control trial with the woman serving as her own control. Women determined to have heterogeneously or extremely dense breast based on her previous mammogram and are undergoing routine screening mammography at one of the clinical sites assigned for this study will be eligible to join the study.
This randomized phase II trial studies how well afimoxifene works in reducing the risk of breast cancer in women with mammographically dense breast. Estrogen can cause the growth of breast cancer cells. Hormone therapy using afimoxifene may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells.
