• Trial end date: 2022-11-01

Summary

The HOBOE study was amended in November 2009, and, after reaching enrollment of the first 500 patients, the study began recruiting premenopausal patients only. The primary objective of the extended study is to compare disease free survival in premenopausal patients with early breast cancer. Patients receive triptorelin and are randomized in a 1:1:1 fashion to receive tamoxifen or letrozole, or letrozole + zoledronic acid.

The purpose of the HOBOE study, Version 1, was to compare the adjuvant hormonal therapy treatments of Tamoxifen, Letrozole and Letrozole + Zoledronate for their effects on bone loss in breast cancer patients. Postmenopausal and premenopausal patients were eligible, the latter also receiving monthly triptorelin. Upon reaching the enrollment of the first 500 patients in March 2010, the study began recruiting premenopausal patients only.
