Study of Endocrine Therapy for Lobular Breast Cancer

This study is looking at how well endocrine therapy, given before surgery, works for postmenopausal women with a specific type of breast cancer called invasive lobular carcinoma (ILC). The endocrine therapies being studied are anastrozole, letrozole, exemestane, or tamoxifen. You may be able to join if you are a woman aged 50 or older, have ILC that is HER2-negative and ER-positive (meaning your cancer cells have certain characteristics), and are planning to have breast-conserving surgery. The main goal is to see if this treatment reduces the chance of having cancer cells at the edges of the tissue removed during surgery. The study aims to enroll 176 participants, but its current status is unclear.
