CMF tolerability and effectiveness were both reduced for older patients compared with younger postmenopausal node-positive breast cancer patients who received tamoxifen for 5 years. The development and evaluation of less toxic and more effective chemotherapy regimens are required for high-risk elderly patients.

Systemic therapy with TAM after isolated locoregional recurrence of breast cancer significantly increased 5-year DFS rates from 36% to 59% compared with observation alone and prolonged median DFS by more than 4.5 years in patients with ER+ tumors or in the case of unknown ER status with a DFI of greater than 12 months and minimal tumor burden. Treatment with TAM currently has no significant impact on OS, but the median survival duration of the study population has not yet been reached.
