DCIS: RECAST Trial Ductal Carcinoma In Situ: Re-Evaluating Conditions for Active Surveillance Suitability as Treatment

The goal of this trial is to see if active surveillance monitoring and hormonal therapy in
patients diagnosed with ductal cell carcinoma in situ (DCIS), an early stage of breast
cancer, can be an effective management of the disease.

Participants will be asked to receive control hormonal therapy or an investigational hormonal
therapy treatment. Participants will be asked to return for evaluation with MRI at three
months and six months. Depending on the evaluation participants will have the option to
continue on the treatment. If the evaluation suggests surgery is recommended, the participant
will discontinue the study treatment and will undergo surgery. In addition to the treatment
and MRI evaluation, participants will be asked to provide blood sample to understand their
immune status, provide saliva sample for genetic testing, provide the study with a portion of
the tissue or slides generated from tissue removed during surgery performed as part of their
standard of care.
