Dr. Parish:
There was one small study in patients who had breast cancer where when they initially used the tablets their systemic levels did go up initially for two weeks and then came back down to normal. So there’s that initial peak that some patients who have had breast cancer and they worry about hormonal stimulation might be a concern. It’s a very small study and it needs to be reproduced.
