Phase III Comparison of Tamoxifen Versus Tamoxifen Plus Ovarian Function Suppression in Premenopausal Women With Node-Negative, Hormone Receptor–Positive Breast Cancer (E-3193, INT-0142): A Trial of the Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group

Abstract

When added to tamoxifen, OFS results in more menopausal symptoms and sexual dysfunction, which contributes to inferior self-reported health-related quality of life. Because of early closure, this study is underpowered for drawing conclusions about the impact on survival when adding OFS to tamoxifen.
