Abstract

Purpose of Review As adjuvant therapy for early-stage, hormone receptor-positive breast cancer has improved, late recurrences have become a significant issue. Endocrine therapies such as tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors play a central role in reducing the risk of recurrence of hormone-positive breast cancers. However, the continued risk of breast cancer recurrence even with 5 years of adjuvant AI therapy has led to interest in extended therapy. This review intends to discuss and analyze recent trials that have reported results with extending AI therapy beyond 5 years of treatment.
