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 evaluate whether trastuzumab and letrozole are effective and safe in the preoperative treatment for postmenopausal patients with hormone receptor-positive and HER2-positive breast cancer.

Outcome measures

* Primary End-point

* The rate of pathologic complete response (pCR)

* No residual invasive cancer in breast
* Secondary End-point

* Clinical Response Rate
* Safety profiles for the preoperative use of concurrent trastuzumab and letrozole
* The rate of breast conservative surgery
* Total pathologic complete response (tpCR)

* No residual invasive cancer in breast and ipsilateral axilla
* Analysis of biomarkers based on baseline specimen and residual tumor
* Ki67 expression
* cDNA microarray: gene expression profiling
* Association between clinical response rate and circulating tumor cells (CTCs)

* CTCs are measured by CytoGen (SEOUL, KOREA)"
