Here is a study which can help you find out more about the uniqueness of your tumor. It will also help all women with ILC customize their endocrine therapy in the future. Please consider participating. You generally have some time between diagnosis and surgery. This study occurs during that short "waiting" time period.

    ILC women, I heard about this study at the ILC conference last year, and it sounds great. For a very short-term commitment, you get to see if a particular hormonal therapy works on your particular cancer (to lower ki67), which can help you choose your best long-term hormonal therapy after surgery. And you contribute to very important research on our heretofore neglected subtype. They will be looking at how the three treatments work on ILC tumors with different biological features, and what can make a tumor resistant to a particular therapy. So do take a look! You can help yourself and others.
