Weight change associated with anastrozole and tamoxifen treatment in postmenopausal women with or at high risk of developing breast cancer.

Abstract

Weight gain is commonly reported by breast cancer patients on tamoxifen or aromatase inhibitors. Since weight gain may impact on outcome and compliance we have prospectively assessed the effects of these agents on weight change in three randomised trials for the treatment or prevention of breast cancer. Data on weight change in postmenopausal women from three large clinical trials investigating endocrine therapy for the treatment or prevention of breast cancer were analysed (ATAC, IBIS-I and IBIS-II). In the IBIS-I study, mean weight change on tamoxifen was +0.1 kg (SD 0.1) compared with +0.3 kg (SD 0.1) in women taking the placebo (P = 0.3) between baseline and 12 months of follow-up. In the IBIS-II trial, no statistically significant difference was found between anastrozole and placebo after 12 months of follow-up [+0.8 kg (SD 5.3) vs. +0.5 kg (SD 7.4), P = 0.5]. In the ATAC trial, no statistically significant differences in weight gain between anastrozole and tamoxifen were found after 12 months of follow-up [+1.4 kg (SD 3.9) vs. +1.5 kg (SD 4.0), P = 0.4]. Significant baseline predictors for gaining more than 5 kg of weight after 12 months of follow-up were: being younger than 60 years old, smoking and mastectomy. All three...Continue Reading
