Summary
This study tested whether adding a low-dose chemotherapy pill (capecitabine) to standard hormone therapy (aromatase inhibitor) helps women with a common type of advanced breast cancer live longer without the disease getting worse. The trial involved 263 women who had not received prior treatment for their metastatic cancer. The goal was to see if the combination works better than hormone therapy alone.
