We examined compliance with and the effects of melatonin supplementation on breast cancer biomarkers (estradiol, insulin-like growth factor I (IGF-1), insulin-like growth factor binding protein 3 (IGFBP-3), and the IGF-1/IGFBP-3 ratio) in postmenopausal breast cancer survivors. In a double-blind, placebo-controlled study, postmenopausal women with a prior history of stage 0-III breast cancer who had completed active cancer treatment (including hormonal therapy) were randomly assigned to either 3 mg oral melatonin (n=48) or placebo daily for 4 months. Plasma samples were collected at baseline and after completion of the intervention. The primary endpoints were compliance and change in estradiol and IGF-1/IGFBP-3 levels. 95 women were randomized (48 to melatonin and 47 to placebo). 86 women (91%) completed the study and provided pre and post intervention bloods. Melatonin was well-tolerated without any grade 3/4 toxicity and compliance was high (89.5%). Overall, among postmenopausal women with a prior history of breast cancer, a 4 month course of 3 mg melatonin daily did not influence circulating estradiol, IGF-1, or IGFBP-3 levels. Compliance was comparable between the two groups. Short-term melatonin treatment did not influence estradiol and IGF-1/IGBBP-3 levels. Effects of longer courses of melatonin and among premenopausal women are unknown. The particularly low baseline estradiol levels in our study population may have hindered the ability to detect any further estradiol lowering effects of melatonin.
