NCT02097459

Brief Summary

It suggests in the Guideline that the postmenopausal women with breast cancer who have taken selective estrogen receptor modulators (SERMs) therapy for 2-3 years could benefit from changing endocrine therapy to aromatase inhibitors (AIs). This is a prospective, randomized and non-inferior trial to evaluate the prognosis of changing endocrine therapy from SERMs to AIs in perimenopausal and recently postmenopausal women with early-stage hormone receptor-positive breast cancer.

  • History of hysterectomy.
  • Pregnant or lactating patients. Patients of childbearing potential must have a negative pregnancy test (urine or serum) within 14 days prior to registration.
  • History of osteoporosis and/or fractures due to osteoporosis.
  • Prior or concomitant secondary malignancy (except non-melanomatous skin cancer or carcinoma in situ of the uterine cervix)
  • Any other serious medical pathology, such as congestive heart failure; unstable angina; history of myocardial infarction during the previous year; uncontrolled high risk arrhythmias
