Journal ArticleDOI

Switching to anastrozole (ANA) vs continued tamoxifen (TAM) treatment of early breast cancer (EBC). Updated results of the Italian tamoxifen anastrozole (ITA) trial

TL;DR: An additional analysis at a median follow-up time of 52 mos shows that switching to ANA after 2–3 years of TAM is well tolerated and significantly improves event-free (EFS) and progression-free survival (PFS) of postmenopausal ebc.
Journal ArticleDOI

Sequential Tamoxifen and Aminoglutethimide Versus Tamoxifen Alone in the Adjuvant Treatment of Postmenopausal Breast Cancer Patients: Results of an Italian Cooperative Study

TL;DR: Switching patients from tamoxifen to aminoglutethimide treatment resulted in comparable event-free survival, but longer overall survival was achieved in patients who were switched to am inoglutEthimide as compared with those who continued to receive tamoxIFen.
Journal ArticleDOI

Quantitative study of blood-brain barrier permeability changes after experimental whole-brain radiation.

TL;DR: This work investigated the possibility of a change in blood-brain barrier function as a causative factor for early delayed whole-brain radiation-induced cerebral haemorrhage in rats.
Journal ArticleDOI

Unusual relapse of hepatocellular carcinoma.

TL;DR: The risk of neoplastic seeding through biopsy and improved safety in surgical techniques justify the omission of diagnostic biopsy in patients who have surgical procedures.
