Tamoxifen

For patients with elevated serum HER2 neu levels there was no significant difference between the FEMARA and tamoxifen groups for ORR 17% vs 13%, respectively; P 0.4507 ; or clinical benefit rate 33% vs 26%, respectively; P 0.3051 ; .62 However, there was a strong trend favoring FEMARA vs tamoxifen toward longer TTP median, 6.1 vs 3.3 months, respectively; P 0.0596 ; Figure 27 ; .62 In addition, TTF was significantly longer with FEMARA than with tamoxifen median, 6.0 vs 3.2 months, respectively; P 0.0418 ; .62 These data confirm the efficacy of FEMARA and its superiority compared with tamoxifen in patients with HER2 neu overexpression. Estrogen therapy as an alternative to the surgical approach of adrenalectomy and glucocorticoid treatment. However, tamoxifen, with fewer serious side effects than high-dose estrogen treatment, emerged as the standard of care during the 1970s 65 ; , and estrogen was all but abandoned as a breast cancer treatment. Nevertheless, the changing fashion of therapeutics with long-term antiestrogen therapies has resulted in renewed interest in high-dose estrogen therapy prior to chemotherapy. There are anecdotal reports 66 ; and an interesting Phase II study of diethylstilbestrol treatment 5 mg, three times daily ; following exhaustive antiestrogen therapy 67 ; that illustrate the potential value of a new strategy incorporating estrogen. A total of 32 postmenopausal patients who were refractory to antiestrogen treatments were challenged with diethylstilbestrol 5 mg, three times daily ; . Response rates were significant with 4 32 complete responses, 6 32 partial responses, and 2 32 stable disease. Clearly, these are important new data. However, the use of high-dose estrogen therapy is associated with the serious side effect of VTE. This is particularly of concern for patients with extensive metastatic disease, since there is already a higher incidence of VTE in these cases. The goal of current translational research is to leverage emerging laboratory and clinical observations to design a logical strategy for enhancing the effectiveness of endocrine maintenance. Much new work has been completed on the molecular actions of estrogen, antiestrogens, and SERMs 23, 24 ; , and a summary of progress will be presented to illustrate opportunities for targeted therapy.

A new family of drugs, called aromatase inhibitors, are challenging tamoxifen for treatment of late-stage breast cancer. Fiacco nabp does all take tamoxifen anastrozole. Raloxifene evista ; , another serm, also protects against breast cancer and osteoporosis and has a lower risk than tamoxifen of causing uterine cancer and temazepam. Coverage provided by Judith Feinberg, M.D for : HIV&Hepatitis HPV Human Papilloma Virus ; is the virus that causes warts, including genital and anal warts, and chronic infection with certain strains of HPV has long been associated with precancerous changes that can lead to cancer of the cervix and rectum. Abnormal precancerous changes of both the cervix and anus can be detected by a simple Pap test. The Pap test involves obtaining cells from the area with a wooden scraper, smearing the cells on a glass slide, staining the cells and looking for abnormalities with a microscope. ; Two studies looked at HPV infection at different sites. One study used a case-control design to evaluate risk factors for HPV in the mouth. In 1997-98, the frequency of oral lesions due to HPV at Grady Hospital in Atlanta was relatively stable, with 18 total cases seen over those two years. However, in 1999, 34 cases were diagnosed.

Synopsis AstraZeneca, the manufacturers of Arimidex anastrozole ; announced that the FDA has granted "fast-track" designation to its supplementary license application, seeking the approval of the drug for the treatment of early-stage breast cancer in post-menopausal women. This decision follows the recent release of clinical data demonstrating that the use of anastrozole resulted in a statistically smaller relapse rate in women with early stage breast cancer than treatment with tamoxifen. Arimidix is currently licensed both here in the UK and in the USA or first-line treatment of post- menopausal women with hormone receptor positive or unknown locally advanced or metastatic breast cancer and also for treatment of advanced breast cancer in postmenopausal women with disease progression following tamoxifen therapy. Presented last month at the San Antonio Breast Cancer Symposium, the ATAC study involved 9, 366 patients with early breast cancer who had completed surgery and chemotherapy if given ; and were candidates for adjuvant hormonal therapy. The study showed that after a median of 33.3 months follow-up and a median duration of treatment of 30.7 months, 317 of 3, 125 women in the ARIMIDEX group had a relapse of their breast cancer or died, compared with 379 of 3, 116 women in the tamoxifen group, a difference that was significant p 0.0129 ; . The researchers said that patients in the Arimidex treatment arm also suffered fewer side effects. A combination arm of tamoxiifen and Arimidex was also included but did not result in a clinical benefit.

Prevention of Breast Cancer A major educational effort is needed to raise awareness in physicians, pharmacists, nurses, attorneys and especially the general public regarding controllable risk factors for breast cancer: avoidance of factors which increase risk as well as use of factors which reduce risk. Women must be informed of the risks of both hormonal contraceptives and induced abortion especially when they have additional risk factors such as a family history of breast cancer, being less than 18 years of age, or being a black woman. Women need to be taught natural family planning methods, none of which increases cancer risk. Women must be informed of practices that reduce breast cancer risk such as long-term breastfeeding, bearing a child at a young age, and bearing more than one child. The use of Vitamin A may be of benefit, though this should be avoided by women who could become pregnant as it may rarely ; cause birth defects. Women with Identified Breast Cancer Risks Women who have had induced abortions and or used oral contraceptive pills, especially at an early age, need lifelong physician monitoring. They and all women ; should consistently perform self-breast exams. They should also seriously consider protective strategies such as extended breastfeeding and or use of vitamin A. Tamoxifen and drugs similar to it have been found to decrease the risk of breast cancer in certain groups of women. Reports by the Eli Lilly company stated that Evista raloxifene ; , an artificial hormone given to some postmenopausal women to prevent osteoporosis, may reduce breast cancer risk Company Press Release, Eli Lilly, 12 11 98 ; . Neither drug should be given to pre- or peri-menopausal women who might conceive. Additional exposure to risk factors such as repeat abortion or additional hormone eg, contraceptive ; use should be avoided and trazodone.

Benefit of bicalutamide 150 mg in terms of sparing libido, but I think the bone mineral density story is more compelling. Bicalutamide 150 mg actually increases bone mineral density because the high levels of testosterone are converted into estrogen, which is a bone mineral density-sparing hormone. To me, that is really the strong argument for its use. There are two caveats, however. First is the question of whether bicalutamide 150 mg is equivalent in terms of duration of survival. The second issue is gynecomastia. A number of my patients who are on the bicalutamide EPC trial have had breast reduction surgery. They're quite happy, but this was definitely an issue for them. I have not used much prophylactic radiation in these patients. I probably should use more of it, but it doesn't work in everyone, and it's radiation to the chest. The patients aren't too keen about it, so I haven't really employed it. There are studies using tamoxifen, but one of the problems is that if it's the estrogen that's contributing to the increase in bone mineral density, maybe by using tamoxife to block gynecomastia, you're blocking the benefit to bone mineral density. From a theoretical perspective, it is possible tamoxifen will have an adverse effect.
