Two-Drug attack on breast cancer before surgery shows promise

NCT ID NCT01723774

Summary

This study tested if adding a new drug called PD 0332991 to a standard hormone therapy (anastrozole) could better control early-stage breast cancer before surgery. It involved 84 women with a specific type of breast cancer that is hormone-sensitive. The main goal was to see if this combination could stop cancer cell growth more effectively than hormone therapy alone.
