| heal.abstract | In postmenopausal women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive breast cancer, long-term tamoxifen administration has proved beneficial after surgical treatment and subsequent chemotherapy. One of the major adverse effects of tamoxifen is the development of endometrial pathology (polyps, endometrial hyperplasia and endometrial cancer). PvuII and XbaI polymorphisms of the estrogen receptor-alpha gene (ERalpha) and RsaI and AluI polymorphisms of the estrogen receptor-beta gene (ERbeta) have been associated with breast cancer. Thus the present study aimed to identify whether ER gene polymorphisms are associated with breast cancer stage or endometrial responsiveness to long-term tamoxifen treatment in 87 postmenopausal, tamoxifen-treated women with ER-positive breast cancer. The mean age of the patients was 58.7 +/- 4.7 years and the mean duration of tamoxifen treatment was 3.9 +/- 1.1 years. At diagnosis, the stage of breast cancer was determined as follows: 29 women (32%) at Stage I, 49 (58%) at Stage II and 9 (10%) at Stage III. The frequency distributions of the estrogen receptor polymorphisms in all women with breast cancer were not different from those predicted by the Hardy-Weinberg equilibrium hypothesis (p > 0.10). None of the ER polymorphisms studied was linked to either the presence of endometrial pathology or the stage of breast cancer. | en |
