Study arms

  • Experimental
    OFS + Anastrozole

    Patients who were anticipated to receive adjuvant OFS+AI endocrine therapy according to MDT discussion results were randomized to this arm,they will receive OFS+Anastrozole.

    Drug: OFS + Anastrozole

  • Active comparator
    OFS + Exemestane

    Patients who were anticipated to receive adjuvant OFS+AI endocrine therapy according to MDT discussion results were randomized to this arm,they will receive OFS+Exemestane.

    Drug: OFS + Exemestane

Interventions

  • DrugOFS + Anastrozole

    Ovarian function suppression can be achieved by choice of goserelin at a dose of 3.6 mg administered by means of subcutaneous injection every 28 days,bilateral oophorectomy,or bilateral ovarian irradiation. Patients will take anastrozole 1mg qd.

    Also known as: OFS + Ana

  • DrugOFS + Exemestane

    Patients will take exemestane 25mg qd. Ovarian function suppression can be achieved by choice of goserelin at a dose of 3.6 mg administered by means of subcutaneous injection every 28 days,bilateral oophorectomy,or bilateral ovarian irradiation.

    Also known as: OFS + EXE
