Tailored Treatment Investigations Premenopausal patients with endocrine-
responsive disease (ER > 10% and/or PgR > 10%)
Open questions related to adjuvant treatments:
1. Role of suppression of ovarian function
2. Role of AI
3. Role of chemotherapy in addition to endocrine therapies
4. Duration of GnRH analogue when combined with SERMS

SOFT: Background
• EBCTCG overview: Ovarian ablation effective adjuvant therapy in women < 50
• EBCTCG overview: benefit of ovarian ablation uncertain in women < 50 if also receive chemotherapy
![Page 6: Investigator Meeting SOFT](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56815a63550346895dc7a812/html5/thumbnails/6.jpg)
Does Overview underestimate ovarian ablation efficacy?
• Some were hormone receptor negative
• Most women < 50 who receive adjuvant chemotherapy become menopausal
• Need to test ovarian function suppression in group who can benefit i.e. remain premenopausal after chemo + receptor positive cancer
![Page 7: Investigator Meeting SOFT](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56815a63550346895dc7a812/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
Amenorrhea after Chemotherapy
• 80% of women > 40 yrs after CMF x 6• < 50% women < 40 yrs after CMF• Less amenorrhea with AC than CMF (34% vs
69%)• Prognosis after CMF better in those who get
amenorrhea
![Page 8: Investigator Meeting SOFT](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56815a63550346895dc7a812/html5/thumbnails/8.jpg)
Combining Tamoxifen plus ovarian function suppression
• In advanced breast cancer there is a survival advantage to combined endocrine treatment (GnRH + Tam) vs. single hormonal treatment in premenopausal women
![Page 9: Investigator Meeting SOFT](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56815a63550346895dc7a812/html5/thumbnails/9.jpg)
Women < 35 yrs with hormone receptor positive breast cancer
• Do poorly after adjuvant chemotherapy alone
• Worse prognosis than premenopausal women > 35
• Paradoxically have worse prognosis than same age group with hormone receptor negative cancer when treated with adjuvant chemotherapy

Adjuvant Endocrine Therapy
• Exemestane 25 mg po daily for 5 years Tamoxifen 20 mg po daily for 5 years
• Exemestane/Tamoxifen should start after adjuvant chemotherapy has been completed or at least 6 weeks after the initiation of GnRH analogue, whichever is later
• NB if patient ceases GnRH, exemestane ineffective
![Page 19: Investigator Meeting SOFT](https://reader036.vdocuments.net/reader036/viewer/2022062315/56815a63550346895dc7a812/html5/thumbnails/19.jpg)
