First seen Nov 01, 2025 · Last updated May 12, 2026 · Updated 26 times
Summary
This study is for women aged 65 and older with early-stage, hormone-sensitive breast cancer. It tests whether taking hormone pills for 3 months before surgery helps patients feel more confident about skipping radiation after surgery. Half the participants will receive this pre-surgery hormone therapy, while the other half will proceed directly to surgery as usual. The goal is to see if this approach reduces overtreatment and improves quality of life.
