简要总结

The purpose of this study is to determine whether oral administration of Boswellia causes biological changes in primary tumors of breast cancer patients.

详细描述

To determine whether oral administration of Boswellia serrata causes biological changes related to angiogenesis (CD31), apoptosis (DNA fragmentation), and cell proliferation (Ki67) in primary tumors of breast cancer patients.

研究组 & 干预措施

Boswellia

Experimental

Boswellia will be given at 800mg by mouth three times a day, immediately after each meal. Boswellia will be given from the time surgical resection is scheduled until the night before surgical resection.

干预措施: Boswellia (Drug)

结局指标

主要结局

Change in tumor proliferation rate

时间窗: up to 56 days

Change in tumor proliferation rate will be based on Ki67, CD31 and TUNEL assays in biopsies pre and post treatment with boswellia

次要结局

  • Number of adverse events reported(up to 84 days)
  • Changes in tumors analyzed through immunohistochemistry(up to 56 days)
