What the film says

Read the transcript

This trial is for adult women with ductal carcinoma in situ, with at least 50% estrogen- or progesterone-receptor positivity.

The idea: compare usual hormonal therapy with elacestrant, endoxifen, or testosterone/anastrozole. Elacestrant removes estrogen receptors. MRI checks whether continued surveillance is suitable; surgery follows if recommended. The testosterone combination is implanted under the skin; the other treatments are oral.

This phase 2 study plans 400 patients. QuantumLeap sponsors RECAST, with 27 recruiting US sites. Laura Esserman and Kelly Hewitt lead. The study does not establish that surgery can safely be avoided.
