Summary

RATIONALE: Chemoprevention therapy is the use of certain drugs to try to prevent the development of or treat early cancer. Diagnostic procedures, such as ductal lavage, may improve the ability to assess the effectiveness of chemopreventive drugs, such as tamoxifen, on breast cells and may help doctors plan more effective treatment.

PURPOSE: This phase II trial is studying how well ductal lavage works in assessing changes in breast cells in women with early breast cancer or in those at high risk of developing breast cancer who are eligible for tamoxifen therapy.
