Update on Tamoxifen for Breast Cancer Prevention
The National Surgical Adjuvant Breast and Bowel Project Breast Cancer Prevention study (P-1) was initiated in 1992 to investigate whether tamoxifen could prevent the development of breast cancer in women at high risk for the disease. In 1998, it was reported that women who received tamoxifen had a lower risk of breast cancer than women who received placebo; they also had a reduced risk of osteoporotic fractures and increased risks of endometrial cancer, thromboembolism, and several other undesirable side effects. In this issue, Fisher et al. (p. 1652) present updated findings
