简要总结

The study will be testing metformin in patients with breast cancer who are about to undergo surgery. Patients will take metformin 3 times daily for about 2-3 weeks prior to their surgery date. It is hypothesized that metformin will reduce cell proliferation rates in tumour tissue.

入选标准

  • invasive T1-4 (if T1, ≥ 1cm), NX operable breast cancer confirmed on core biopsy
  • < 70 years of age
  • breast surgery scheduled at least 2 weeks after study entry at one of the participating institutions (metformin will be started no more than 3 weeks prior to scheduled surgery) for the current breast cancer
  • patient and physician consent

排除标准

  • on metformin for any reason during the preceding 4 weeks
  • recent (within 4 weeks) antiestrogen or estrogen therapy
  • prior or concurrent systemic neoadjuvant BC therapy of any type (chemotherapy, hormone therapy, biologic therapy)
  • known diabetes or baseline fasting glucose > or = 7.0 mmol/L (specific treatment is required)
  • current or recent (within 4 weeks) use of drugs that may influence insulin or insulin sensitivity including oral corticosteroids, insulin sensitizers, exogenous insulin or oral hypoglycemic agents
  • serum creatinine above upper limit of normal for the institution
  • history of lactic or other metabolic acidosis
  • consumption of > 3 alcoholic beverages per day (on average)
  • AST > 1.5 times upper limit of normal for the institution
  • known hypersensitivity or allergy to metformin
  • current or past congestive heart failure
  • coagulopathy (including use of anti-coagulants) precluding biopsy
  • pregnancy or lactation within 3 months.
  • Serious psychiatric illness
  • Note: Women with childbearing potential will be required to use an effective form of birth control (condom or other barrier method, tubal ligation or vasectomy - oral contraceptives are contra-indicated in breast cancer) and to have a negative pregnancy test prior to starting metformin.
