ASCO 2025 | Evaluating OFS & adjuvant ET in germline BRCAm carriers with breast cancer

Paola Zagami, MD, European Institute of Oncology IRCSS (IEO), Milan, Italy, discusses a clinical study (NCT03673306) examining ovarian function suppression (OFS) combined with adjuvant endocrine therapy (ET) for patients with hormone receptor-positive early breast cancer. The study demonstrated statistically significant improvements in both progression-free survival and overall survival compared to endocrine therapy alone, supporting the combination treatment approach. This interview took place during the 2025 American Society of Clinical Oncology (ASCO) Meeting in Chicago, IL.

Our study investigated the use of ovarian suppression plus adjuvant endocrine therapy on survival outcome in BRCA mutation carriers with hormone receptor positive early breast cancer. The results showed an improvement in progression-free survival in patients using ovarian suppression plus adjuvant endocrine therapy with an adjusted odds ratio of 0.79 and a p-value of 0.009. So, the use of ovarian suppression improved the progression-free survival compared to endocrine therapy alone. Moreover, in terms of overall survival, similar results. The combination of ovarian suppression plus adjuvant endocrine therapy showed a statistically significant improvement in overall survival compared to endocrine therapy alone, with an adjusted ratio of 0.66, and the p-value was statistically significant.
