First seen Apr 17, 2026 · Last updated May 10, 2026 · Updated 4 times

Summary

This study aimed to see if postmenopausal women with higher body fat respond differently to standard doses of aromatase inhibitors (anastrozole or letrozole) compared to women with lower body fat. About 42 women with hormone-sensitive breast cancer were planned to participate, but the study was terminated early. The goal was to measure changes in a tumor growth marker (Ki67) after treatment.
