Hormone therapy using tamoxifen or letrozole may fight breast cancer by blocking the use of estrogen by the tumor cells or by lowering the amount of estrogen the body makes. PURPOSE: This clinical trial is studying how well tamoxifen or letrozole work in treating women with ductal carcinoma in situ.

Primary Outcome

Change in size of Ductal Carcinoma in situ (DCIS) for participants on hormonal therapy, as determined by mammography are determined by (1) largest diameter of tumor, as visualized on mammography (2) extent of disease on mammography (3) quantification of mammographically-detected change from baseline to 6-month and used to generate the change in tumor volume of mammographic extent of disease from baseline. Since values were not normally distributed, the median change was calculated, and Wilcoxon
