Letrozole and anastrozole in early breast cancer postmenopausal patients in oncology department at Suez Canal University Hospital
Bibliographic record
Abstract
Background: There are limited data in the literature comparing the efficacy of aromatase inhibitors in postmenopausal hormonal receptor positive early breast cancer patients.Aim of study: To compare the efficacy of letrozole and anastrozole in hormone-receptor positive postmenopausal breast cancer patients.Methods: A retrospective study with a mean follow-up period of 64 months (about 5 years) for 74 files of early invasive postmenopausal breast cancer hormonal receptor positive patients; 39 received letrozole and 35 received anastrozole, considering TTP as primary end point, and OS as second end points.Results: Letrozole is not superior to anastrozole during the first 55 months of treatment (80% PFS at 5th year), and 80% OS benefit at 6th year. Overweight patients had better (90% PFS at 5th year) than obese patients (60% PFS at 5th year).Conclusion: Letrozole is not superior to anastrozole in efficacy in early invasive hormonal receptor positive breast cancer postmenopausal patients during the first 5 years of treatment; however, Letrozole 2nd line after tamoxifen is superior to anastrozole 2nd line after tamoxifen in treating obese patients with early invasive hormone receptor positive breast cancer.

How this classification was reachedexpand
Full frame distilled prediction
Teacher imitationNot calibrated prevalence, not ground truth. Human validation pending. Learned from the 10,348 direct Codex labels and 10,348 direct Gemma labels. Candidate is the union of thresholded teacher heads; consensus is their intersection. These outputs are machine_predicted_unvalidated and are not human labels or direct frontier model labels.

Machine scores (provisional)
The two teacher heads of the student model, read on this work. A score orders the frame for review; it never asserts a category, and the validation status ships verbatim with every row.
Baseline scores from an immature model (maturity gate not passed, 7 training rounds). Scores rank; they never assert a category.
score_only:v0-immature-baseline · verbatim from the scoring run: score_only means the number may rank works, and no category label ships from itClassification
machine, unvalidatedMachine predicted; a candidate call from one teacher head, not a consensus.
