Study Summary

RATIONALE: Magnesium oxide may help relieve hot flashes symptoms in women with a history of breast cancer. PURPOSE: This randomized clinical trial studies how well a high-dose or a low-dose of magnesium oxide works compared to placebo in treating menopausal women with hot flashes and a history of breast cancer.

Primary Outcome

The primary endpoint is the intra-patient changes of weekly hot flash activity from baseline during the treatment period. The hot flash activity will be measured by the weekly average hot flash score, which is a composite entity of both frequency and severity of hot flashes. The hot flash severity is graded from 1 to 4 (1=mild, 2=moderate, 3=severe, and 4=very severe). The daily hot flash score is computed by multiplying the mean grade of severity by the frequency during every 24 hour period. T
