Brief Summary

Review the sponsor-provided synopsis that highlights what the study is about and why it is being conducted.

The purpose of this study is to assess clinical outcomes after Letrozole treatment according to the estrogen receptor expression in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer.

Detailed Description

Dive into the extended narrative that explains the scientific background, objectives, and procedures in greater depth.

This study aimed at evaluating following:

1. Validity Assessment:

1. Primary End Point: To evaluate 5-year diseae free survival rate after Letrozole treatment according to the estrogen receptor expression in postmenopausal women
2. Secondary End Point: To evaluate overall survival rate(OS) and Time to distance recurrence(TTDR) after Hormonal therapy in postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer
2. Safety Assessment: To evaluate all adverse events including serious adverse events after Letrozole treatment.

Study Groups

Review each arm or cohort in the study, along with the interventions and objectives associated with them.

ER expression : Low

Patients were postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. All patients should be 3 or 4 point of total Allred score.

No interventions assigned to this group

ER expression : Intermediate

Patients were postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. All patients should be 5 or 6 point of total Allred score.

No interventions assigned to this group

ER expression : High

Patients were postmenopausal women with hormone receptor positive breast cancer. All patients should be 7 or 8 point of total Allred score.

No interventions assigned to this group
