Brief Summary

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

Increased mammographic density of mammary gland tissues and hyperprolactinaemia are regarded as one of the risk factors for the development of breast cancer in women aged 40 to 52 years, which necessitates closer monitoring of the mammary gland and can be considered as modifiable. The herbal drug Cyclodynone® has a dopaminergic effect on the hypothalamus, which causes its inhibitory effect on the secretion of prolactin. At present, a significant positive clinical and scientific experience has been accumulated in the use of the Cyclodynone® for the treatment of benign breast dysplasias against a background of mild hyperprolactinaemia in women of reproductive age. Demonstration of the positive effect of this drug on the reduction of hyperprolactinemia, mammographic density of MF, evaluation on the scale BI-RADS would justify its application for the modification of this risk factor in women aged 40 to 52 years.

Detailed Description

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

Hypothesis: Increased mammographic density of mammary gland tissues and hyperprolactinaemia are regarded as one of the risk factors for the development of breast cancer in women aged 40 to 52 years, which necessitates closer monitoring of the mammary gland. However, this risk factor can be considered as modifiable. The drug Cyclodynone® (contains 4 mg of special extract of dried fruits of Chaste Berry (Vitex agnus-castus)) has a dopaminergic effect on the hypothalamus, which causes its inhibitory effect on the secretion of prolactin. At present, a significant positive clinical and scientific experience has been accumulated in the use of the Cyclodynone® for the treatment of benign breast dysplasias against a background of mild hyperprolactinaemia in women of reproductive age. However, the experience of using Cyclodynone® in women older than 40-52 years with increased density or dyshormonal pathology of breast cancer is limited. Demonstration of the positive effect of this drug on the reduction of hyperprolactinemia, mammographic density of MF, evaluation on the scale BI-RADS would justify its application for the modification of this risk factor in women aged 40 to 52 years.

Allocation Method

RANDOMIZED

Intervention Model

PARALLEL

Female patients aged 40 to 52 years (inclusive) with mastodynia and BI-RADS category 3, who meet the requirements of inclusion/exclusion criteria will be randomized in 2 groups. The main group will be treated with Cyclodynon 1 tab per day - 6 month in addition to lifestyle modification. The control group lifestyle modification only. Dynamics of mammographic breast density (changing in BI-RADS score of category 3).
