Adjuvant anastrozole versus exemestane versus letrozole, upfront or after 2 years of tamoxifen, in endocrine-sensitive breast cancer (FATA-GIM3): a r…
2018
Background: Uncertainty exists about the optimal schedule of adjuvant treatment of breast cancer with aromatase inhibitors and, to our knowledge, no trial has directly compared the three aromatase inhibitors anastrozole, exemestane, and letrozole. We investigated the schedule and type of aromatase inhibitors to be used as adjuvant treatment for hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer. Methods: FATA-GIM3 is a multicentre, open-label, randomised, phase 3 trial of six different treatments in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer. Eligible patients had histologically confirmed invasive hormone receptor-positive breast cancer that had been completely remov…

515 Background: Uncertainty still exists regarding the optimal schedule of adjuvant treatment of breast cancer with aromatase inhibitors (AI) and no trial has ever compared all the three AI. Methods: FATA-GIM3 is a multicenter, open label, 2x3 factorial phase 3 randomized study of adjuvant A, E and L upfront (UP - for 5 years) or sequentially (SEQ - for 3 years after 2 years of T) in postmenopausal HR breast cancer pts. Two comparisons were planned: UP vs SEQ and A vs E vs L. DFS (including local or distant relapse, second breast or non-breast cancer, DCIS and death, whichever came first) was the primary end-point; 2% at 5 yrs (corresponding to a HR of 0.79) was defined as the minimum diff…
