Adjuvant Systemic Treatment
of Breast Cancer
• Breast cancer is most often curable when
detected in early stages
• Micrometastases exist at the time of
diagnosis in many patients, leading to
eventual recurrence
• Adjuvant systemic therapy has been found
to prolong both overall and disease-free
survival in breast cancer patients
Systemic Therapy for Breast Cancer
Endocrine Therapy
Chemotherapy
Biologically-targeted Therapy
New Strategies: Individualizing treatment
to the cancer and the patient
Systemic Treatment of Early Stage Breast
Cancer
• THE PAST (2000 NCI Consensus Development
Conference on Adjuvant Breast Cancer)
– Chemotherapy should be offered to the majority of
women with early stage breast cancer regardless of
size, lymph node, menopausal or hormone receptor
status
• THE PRESENT AND FUTURE
– Individualizing estimates of recurrence risk and
chemotherapy benefit using genomic/molecular
profiling
– Many patients don’t need chemotherapy

Endocrine Therapy in Breast Cancer
• Selective Estrogen Receptor Modulators
– tamoxifen

– raloxifene
• Aromatase inhibitors (postmenopausal)
– anastrozole
– letrozole
– exemestane
• Medical or surgical oophorectomy (premenopausal)
• Selective Estrogen Receptor Downregulators
– fulvestrant
• Others: Progestins, Estrogens, Androgens

Adjuvant Therapy in Breast Cancer:
The Future
• Clinical features, stage and biology all contribute to
risk of recurrence!
• Endocrine therapy critical in ER+ breast cancer
• In chemotherapy-sensitive breast cancers,
anthracycline and taxanes both add to disease
control
• Many patients don’t need chemo!
• Trastuzumab significantly reduces breast cancer
recurrence and death in HER2+
• Ongoing prospective trials are integrating traditional
and novel markers of risk to better define tailored
options for early-stage breast cancer
