Study Summary

This early phase I trial tests whether letrozole with simvastatin works better than letrozole alone to stop tumor cell proliferation in patients with stage I-III hormone receptor positive, HER2 negative invasive breast cancer. Letrozole and simvastatin may stop the growth of cancer cells by blocking some of the enzymes needed for cell growth. The addition of simvastatin to letrozole may be more effective at stopping the growth of cancer cells than letrozole alone.

Primary Outcome

Negative change denotes reduction. Ki-67 is a validated surrogate marker for disease-free survival in patients with hormone receptor positive (HR+), HER2- breast cancer. Ki-67 values at 14 days are expressed as geometric mean proportions of the baseline and transformed into percentage change. Geometric mean percentage change of Ki-67 from pre- to post-treatment is calculated and compared between the two treatment arms. A two-sided Mann-Whitney U or Wilcoxon Rank-Sum test is used.
