Here is another article from today's NY Times SCIENCE section. I does discuss Tamoxifen itself in more detail and does indicate that the new compound to be tested in the next NCI breast cancer prevention trial is Raloxifene.

However, there is no indication that Raloxifene (an APPROVED SERM for PREVENTING osteoporosis) is actually Evista and is sold by LLY (and presentations at the upcoming ASCO meeting will show that it PREVENTS BREAST CANCER).
