Abstract
The mass ratio of urinary 2-hydroxyestrone to 16-α-hydroxyestrone (2:16) is hypothesized as a biomarker of breast cancer risk in premenopausal women, with higher ratios being theoretically protective. Cruciferous vegetable intake has been associated with higher urinary 2:16 in some studies. We investigated whether a whole-food supplement made from dried Brussels sprouts and kale would increase urinary 2:16 in comparison with placebo or cruciferous vegetables in women. This randomized, parallel arm, placebo-controlled, partly blinded study included 78 healthy premenopausal women (38-50 y) with screening urinary 2:16 ≤3.0. Subjects received either six capsules containing 550 mg dried Brussels sprouts and kale per capsule, 40 g daily alternating broccoli or Brussels sprouts, or placebo for eight weeks. Urinary 2:16 and creatinine were measured at baseline, four, and eight weeks. Intent-to-treat repeated measures-ANOVA with multiple imputation (n=100) for missing values identified no treatment effect (P=0.9) or treatment-by-time interaction (P=0.6); however, a significant time effect was noted (P=0.02). Per-protocol analyses including complete cases found no treatment effect (P=1) or treatment-by-time interaction (P=0.6); however, the significant time effect remained (P=0.03). Restricting analysis to subjects with >80% compliance maintained the time effect (P=0.02). Using Pearson correlations, android-pattern and android:gynoid fat were predictive of change (P≤0.05). In conclusion, neither cruciferous supplements nor an added vegetable serving altered urinary 2:16 in premenopausal women with eight weeks treatment. This ratio did vary with time, which is important for designing future trials.
