摘要: Synopsis: Tamoxifen1 is a triphenylethylene oestrogen antagonist which has partial agonist activity in some species. Most therapeutic trials with tamoxifen have involved postmenopausal women advanced breast cancer, about 25 to 60% of patients showing improvement while receiving treatment (usually 20 or 40mg daily); however, poorly defined assessment criteria studies make it difficult compare the results different authors. 7 18% had complete clinical remissions lasting for few months several years.
