Eligibility Criteria

Age20 Years+
Sexfemale
Healthy VolunteersNo
Age GroupsAdult (18-64), Older Adult (65+)

You may qualify if:

  • Histologically proven primary invasive breast cancer which is thought to be suitable for neo-adjuvant treatment
  • Pathologically proven lymph node positive tumor(FNAB or Core biopsy)
  • Tumor must be ER positive(eligible patients include Allred score 5 and more, Modified Allred 4 and more) and HER-2 negative(IHC score is 0-1+; If IHC score is 2+, the result of FISH or SISH is negative)
  • Premenopausal women
  • Premenopausal status as defined by :
  • Last menses within 6 month of randomization or
  • For patients who have had a unilateral oophorectomy, E2 ≥ 20PG/mL and FSH \< 30mIU/Ml within 4 weeks of randomization
  • over 20 years old
  • Pre-treatment haematology and biochemistry values within acceptable limits :
  • ANC ≥ 1.5 × 109/l
  • Hb \> 9g/dl
  • Platelets ≥ 100 × 109/l
  • AST/ALT ≤ 1.5 × ULN(Upper Limit of Normal)
  • ALP ≤ 1.5 × ULN
  • Serum bilirubin ≤ 1.5 × ULN
  • +4 more criteria

You may not qualify if:

  • Inflammatory breast cancer
  • Inoperable disease that is judged very unlikely to be rendered operable by neo-adjuvant treatment
  • Known severe hypersensitivity to GnRHa treatment
  • Bilateral invasive breast cancer
  • Other serious illness or medical condition:
  • congestive heart failure or unstable angina pectoris, previous history of myocardial infarction within 1 year from study entry, uncontrolled hypertension or high-risk uncontrolled arrhythmias
  • history of significant neurologic or psychiatric disorders including psychotic disorders, dementia or seizures that would prohibit the understanding and giving of informed consent
  • active uncontrolled infection
  • HRT within 4 weeks of starting treatment
  • Definite contra-indications for the use of corticosteroids.
  • Last 10 years with a history of other malignant tumor (except in the case of basal cell carcinoma or cervical carcinoma in situ, and where treatment consisted solely of resection)
  • Systemic metastatic (Tests for the diagnosis of systemic metastatic comply with the guideline in each institution)
  • Pregnant or breastfeeding women
  • Chronic oral treatment with corticosteroids unless initiated \> 6 months prior to study entry and at low dose (≤ 20 mg methylprednisolone or equivalent).
