Brief summary

This pilot phase I trial studies resveratrol in postmenopausal women with high body mass index. Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming. The use of resveratrol may keep cancer from forming. Studying samples of blood and urine in the laboratory from postmenopausal women who are taking resveratrol may help doctors learn more about the effects of resveratrol on biomarkers.

Detailed description

PRIMARY OBJECTIVES: I. To determine the effect of pharmacological doses of resveratrol on serum estradiol levels in post-menopausal women with high body mass index (BMI). SECONDARY OBJECTIVES: I. Assess the effect of resveratrol on serum estrone, testosterone, and sex hormone-binding globulin (SHBP). II. Assess the effect of resveratrol on serum levels of insulin and C-peptide. III. Assess the effect of resveratrol on adipocytokine expression and secretion as measured by serum leptin and adiponectin. IV. Assess the effect of resveratrol on inflammatory cytokines as measured by serum C-reactive protein (CRP). V. Assess the effect of resveratrol on oxidative stress as measured by urinary 8-isoprostaglandin F2 alpha (8-iso-PGF2 alpha) and 8-hydroxydeoxyguanosine (8OHdG). VI. Assess the safety of resveratrol intervention as measured by reported adverse events, complete blood count with differential (CBC/diff), comprehensive metabolic panel (CMP), and lipid profile. VII. Assess the relationship between systemic study agent exposure and biomarker modulation. OUTLINE: Patients receive resveratrol orally (PO) once daily (QD) for 12 weeks. After completion of study therapy, patients are followed up for 2 weeks

Exclusion criteria

* Have had invasive cancer(s) within the past 5 years except non-melanoma skin cancer * Within 3 months of or concurrent usage of any other investigational agents * History of allergic reactions attributed to resveratrol * Unwilling or unable to refrain from taking herbal medicines and dietary supplements * Uncontrolled intercurrent illness including, but not limited to, ongoing or active infection, symptomatic congestive heart failure, unstable angina pectoris, cardiac arrhythmia, or psychiatric illness/social situations that would limit compliance with study requirements * Within 3 months of or concurrent estrogen or progesterone replacement therapy, oral contraceptives, androgens, luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone analogs, prolactin inhibitors, or antiandrogens; vaginal estrogen is acceptable. Within 3 months of or concurrent usage of tamoxifen, raloxifene, other selective estrogen-receptor modulators, or aromatase inhibitors * Regular usage (more than 2 times a week) of estrogenic supplements or herbal remedies (e.g., Remifemin, black cohosh, red clover, dong quai, soy isoflavones, dehydroepiandrosterone \[DHEA\], flaxseed, diindolylmethane \[DIM\], genistein, and daidzein) within the past 3 months or concurrently; dietary consumption of phytoestrogens/isoflavones (such as soy, tofu, millet, barley, natto, tempeh, miso, soy milk, soy sauce) is acceptable as these sources are not concentrated * Concurrent use of anti-diabetic drugs such as: * Insulin * Sulfonylureas (e.g., glipizide, glyburide, or glimepiride) * Meglitinides (e.g., repaglinide or nateglinide) * Biguanides (e.g., metformin) * Thiazolidinediones (e.g., rosiglitazone or pioglitazone) * Alpha-glucosidase inhibitors (e.g., acarbose or miglitol) * Dipeptidyl peptidase-4 (DPP-4) inhibitors (e.g., sitagliptin) * Concurrent use of warfarin or phenytoin

Design outcomes

Primary

MeasureTime frameDescription
Change in serum estradiol levels in postmenopausal women with high BMIFrom baseline to 12 weeks (post-intervention)A two-sided paired t-test will be performed to determine whether the change is significant at a significance level of 5%. If the data distribution indicates non-normality or skewedness in violation of the assumptions of the t-test, non-parametric tests will be used. Linear regression techniques will be used to adjust for potential confounders, e.g. age and BMI.

Secondary
