9. What causes breast cancer? Causes and risk factors

10. Risk Factors • Age: • 95% in women 40yo + • highest in 70-74 yo • FH • Personal history • Genetic risk: • BRCA 1/2, TP 53, ATM • Nulliparous • 1st full term pregnancy after 35 yo • No lactation • HRT • Alcohol • Overweight/obesity • Physical inactivity

11. 70% of breast cancers are in patients without identifiable risk factors

12. Risk Calculators • www.cancer.gov/bcrisktool NCI/NSABP

13. Hereditary Breast Cancer Risks 5-10% of all breast cancers • Ashkenazi Jewish descent • 3 or more 1st or 2nd degree relatives • 1st degree relative with bilateral breast cancer • 2 or more 1st or 2nd degree relatives with ovarian cancer • Male breast cancer

14. BRCA 1 and BRCA 2 • Code for DNA repair • Presence of gene, increases the risk of getting breast cancer up to 80% in her lifetime • BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutations make up about half of all cases of inherited breast cancer • associated with ovarian cancer and prostate cancer • can be inherited either from the mother or the father.

15. Other Inherited Genes • TP53 gene • codes for the tumor suppressor protein p53 • Mutations cause Li-Fraumeni syndrome: associated with early onset breast cancer • Ataxia Telangiectasia (ATM) gene Females with one defective copy of the ATM gene and one normal copy of the gene are at increased risk for breast cancer.

26. Prevention Studies • Tamoxifen • Raloxifen: STAR (Study of Tamoxifen and Raloxifene) • Raloxifene is as effective as tamoxifen in reducing invasive but not nonivasive (DCIS) BC risk • Both drugs reduce invasive BC risk by about 50% • Raloxifene: 36% fewer uterine cancers, 29% fewer blood clots • Both increase blood clots.

27. Aspirin In an epidemiologic study, aspirin appeared to lower breast cancer risk Need prospective trial

28. Vitamin D Helps with calcium absorption to maintain bone density In clinical trials

29. Fat WINS Low fat diet (< 30%) 5Y FU: new breast cancers--9.8% low-fat diet; 12.4% standard diet (24% reduction) largest risk reduction – 42%--in ER negative tumors

30. What about soy? Flax? Phytoestrogens? Eat what you like! Eat healthy! Do not change your diet drastically to include phytoestrogens. There may be safety concerns re: pharmaceutically concentrated soy products

31. Lifestyle • Maintain a healthy weight • Decrease intake overall. Increase vegetables in specific (2/3 of plate) • Increase activity: 3-4 hours of exercise per week • Decrease alcohol intake
