Reduction of hormone therapy duration in women with hormonesensitive breast cancer at very low risk of metastatic recurrence
EU CTIS ID: 2024-514480-26-00
What this study is testing
To prospectively demonstrate that an adjuvant aromatase inhibitor therapy duration limited to 2 years is associated with high distant recurrence-free interval (DRFI) at 5 years in a selected population with invasive breast cancer at low risk of metastatic recurrence.
- Therapeutic exploratory (Phase II)
