Protection of Ovarian Function With Goserelin Acetate in Premenopausal Early Breast Cancer Patients With Chemotherapy (PROOF)

December 9, 2010 updated by: AstraZeneca

Protection of Ovarian Function With Goserelin Acetate in Premenopausal Early Breast Cancer Patients Undergoing Adjuvant Chemotherapy: An Open Label, Randomised, Multi-Centre, Phase IIIb Study

Primary objective of this study is to determine the effectiveness of goserelin acetate (Zoladex) in preserving ovarian function in premenopausal women undergoing adjuvant chemotherapy for primary invasive breast cancer by documenting persistence or resumption of regular menses via menstrual history, serum FSH and E2 measurements.

The secondary objectives of this study are as follows: To investigate the impact of treatment with chemotherapy with or without goserelin acetate (i.e. impact of the expectation of ovarian function preservation) on participants' quality of life (QOL) by FACT-ES scale, and to compare safety and tolerability of study drugs in two treatment groups by evaluation of adverse events.

Time Frame: Each 3 months
Each 3 months
The ovarian function will be considered as regained, if menstrual bleeding is observed in two consecutive menstrual cycles
Time Frame: Each 3 months
Each 3 months

Secondary Outcome Measures

Outcome Measure
Time Frame
