Platelet Rich Plasma for the Treatment of Genitourinary Syndrome of Menopause in Patients with Stage 0-III Breast Cancer

Trial Status: closed to accrual

This phase I trial is to find out possible benefits and/or side effects of platelet rich plasma for the treatment of genitourinary syndrome of menopause in patients with stage 0-III breast cancer. Platelet rich plasma is produced by collecting approximately 60-90 ml (4-6 tablespoons) of blood from the vein in patients' arm. The blood is spun using a centrifuge that separates the plasma and red blood cells. This allows doctors to collect the platelet rich plasma that is then loaded into individual, sterile syringes for injection. Giving platelet rich plasma may help relief symptoms of genitourinary syndrome of menopause in patients with breast cancer.
