The Comparative Trial of UFT + TAM With CMF + TAM in Adjuvant Therapy for Breast Cancer (CUBC)

July 6, 2011 updated by: Taiho Pharmaceutical Co., Ltd.
This controlled study is designed to evaluate the relapse-free survival of UFT + TAM compared with CMF + TAM. Patients are randomly assigned to receive either CMF + TAM or UFT + TAM within 6 weeks after surgery. To assess treatment efficacy, data on recurrence and survival will be collected for 5 years after surgery. To evaluate the safety, data on adverse events will be collected during treatment. Patients'quality of life will be assessed by means of a questionnaire.
