Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

This randomized pilot clinical trial studies rosuvastatin in treating women with cardiovascular complications who are undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer. Rosuvastatin may prevent or lessen cardiovascular complications in patients undergoing chemotherapy for breast cancer

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

OBJECTIVES:

I. Evaluate the feasibility of administering Rosuvastatin to breast cancer patients undergoing treatment with anthracyclines, paclitaxel, cyclophosphamide, and trastuzumab for breast cancer.

OUTLINE: Patients are randomized to 1 of 2 treatment arms.

Arm I: Patients receive rosuvastatin orally (PO) once daily for 3 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.

Arm II: Patients receive placebo PO once daily for 3 months in the absence of disease progression or unacceptable toxicity.
