Popis: Despite the success of adjuvant endocrine therapy in early breast cancer, approximately 50% of all recurrences still occur after the initial 5 years of follow-up. Earlier studies confirmed that endocrine therapy extension after 5 years of adjuvant tamoxifen with either tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors up to 10 years leads to an improvement in survival. However, aromatase inhibitors are currently standard of care in the initial 5 years of adjuvant therapy, and the benefit of extended use beyond 5 years of AI based therapy is still debated. The randomized phase III IDEAL trial was designed to study the optimal duration of extended adjuvant endocrine therapy after the initial 5 years of any endocrine therapy. Between April 2007 and November 2011, 1824 postmenopausal, HR-positive early breast cancer patients were included by 74 hospitals in the Netherlands. Enrolled patients earlier received 5 years of any endocrine therapy (87.9% AI based),completed this treatment no longer than 2 years before randomization, and did not have any recurrence at the moment of inclusion. The included patients were randomly allocated to either 2.5 or 5 years of extended letrozole (daily 2.5mg). Primary outcome was disease free survival (DFS), secondary endpoints were overall survival (OS), distant disease free survival (DDFS), contralateral breast cancer and safety. Results & Discussion: Results will become available soon.
