Eligibility Criteria
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

- +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).
