This pilot trial studies how well omega-3 fatty acid works in preventing breast cancer in premenopausal women who consider pregnancy in the future. Moderate dose omega-3 fatty acid may help prevent breast cancer from forming in patients with high risk for breast cancer.
Study sponsor and potential other locations can be found on ClinicalTrials.gov for NCT03383835.
PRIMARY OBJECTIVES:
I. Feasibility of the study in pre-menopausal women at high risk for breast cancer and considering future pregnancy.
II. Documentation of compliance of moderate dose omega-3 fatty acids in pre-menopausal women prior to and during pregnancy.
III. Identification of novel biomarkers modulated by moderate dose omega-3 fatty acids in pre-menopausal women prior to and during pregnancy.
OUTLINE:
Participants receive omega-3 fatty acid orally (PO) daily for 6 months.
After completion of study, participants are followed up periodically.
