San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium- Continuing AIs

Anonymous

The San Antonio Breast Caner Symposium will have a discussion of continuing AIs. "

Over the past several years, new data has emerged which shows the added benefit of more aggressive endocrine therapy for both pre- and post- menopausal women. With increasing use of ovarian suppression in pre-menopausal women and extended adjuvant endocrine therapy across the board, we are seeing subsequent increased toxicity. While these more intensive treatments do offer benefit in certain high-risk populations, they can also significantly decrease quality of life for many women. This talk will discuss how to carefully weigh the risks and benefits of an increasingly aggressive endocrine therapy approach for each patient. We will also discuss how to tailor treatment options to the individual patient and her cancer.
