The use of goserelin in premenopausal patients is to produce castrated level of estradiol (E2), and the remaining peripheral E2 production is inhibited by letrozole, which would accomplish comparable clinical outcomes as in post-menopausal metastatic breast cancer (MBC) patients (pts) by letrozole alone.Letrozole 2.5mg once a day was administered in premenopausal pts and letrozole with goserelin 3.6mg every 4 weeks in premenopausal pts.Serial serum E2, FSH, LH were measured.Bone mineral density (BMD), serum bone turnover markers were checked.
