No results posted yet for this study

Summary

Treatment of hormone receptor (HR)-positive breast cancer with Aromatase Inhibitors (AIs) can lead to associated musculoskeletal pain and may cause patients to discontinue important treatment.

This is a randomized controlled trial assessing the affect of Vitamin B12 on AI-associated joint pain and other outcomes. Participants will be randomly assigned 1:1 to treatment or control arm.

The primary objective of this study is:

-To assess whether daily oral Vitamin B12 decreases average joint pain in women with AI-Associated Musculoskeletal Symptoms

Secondary objectives include:

* To investigate whether daily vitamin B12 improves functional quality of life
* To explore the impact of treatment on serum inflammatory cytokine levels (C- reactive protein) between baseline and various points in treatment.
