Brief Summary: RATIONALE Chemoprevention is the use of certain drugs to keep cancer from forming growing or coming back The use of simvastatin and anastrozole may stop cancer from forming growing or coming back in patients with invasive breast cancer ductal carcinoma in situ or a high risk of breast cancer

PURPOSE This phase II trial is studying how well giving simvastatin together with anastrozole works in treating postmenopausal women with invasive breast cancer ductal carcinoma in situ or a high risk of breast cancer
Detailed Description: OBJECTIVES

Primary

Assess the effects of concurrent anastrozole and simvastatin on anastrozoles steady-state concentration in postmenopausal women with history of invasive breast cancer or ductal carcinoma in situ or at high risk for developing breast cancer

Secondary

Study the effect of concurrent simvastatin and anastrozole on estrogen suppression in these patients

OUTLINE This is a pilot study

Patients continue to receive oral anastrozole once daily as prior to study entry They also receive oral simvastatin once daily for 14-18 days in the absence of unacceptable toxicity or diagnosis of new or recurrent breast cancer

Patients undergo blood sample collection at baseline and after study therapy for analysis of anastrozole and hormone estradiol and estrogen concentrations

PROJECTED ACCRUAL A total of 20 patients will be accrued for this study
