[Endocrine Treatments in Breast Cancer].
Praxis 2022 August
Endocrine Treatments in Breast Cancer Abstract. Breast cancer, the most common cancer in women, expresses estrogen and/or progesterone receptors in about 75% of patients. This allows for the use of endocrine treatments. Adjuvant therapy with tamoxifen for 5 years reduces the mortality by about 33%; the residual risk can be lowered by using aromatase inhibitors and by prolonging the treatment. In patients with advanced disease, the median duration of response to first-line therapy is about twelve months, and the median survival time is 20 to 40 months. The use of the various substances differs in terms of duration, sequence, and combinations, particularly with CDK4/6-inhibitors, depending on the clinical situation. Endocrine therapies are prescribed over a long period of time. Treatment adherence is improved by optimal control of side effects.
