In San Antonio doctors say the new drug Arimidex prevented far more breast cancers from recurring in postmenopausal women than tamoxifen and with fewer side effects. The aromatase inhibitor is predicted to become first choice for many survivors, potentially lowering recurrence by up to 80 percent versus about 50 percent with tamoxifen.

Arimidex shows promise in reducing common postmenopausal breast tumors
A five year follow up study suggests Arimidex may prevent 70 to 80 percent of the most common postmenopausal breast tumors versus 50 percent for tamoxifen. The study of about 10 000 women across 21 countries was led by De Aman Buzdan at MD Anderson. Results, reported at a Texas meeting and published in The Lancet, indicate aromatase inhibitors yield better outcomes than tamoxifen for many patients while not improving postmenopausal efficacy for premenopausal cases.
