ABCSG 16 S.A.L.S.A is assessing the effect of further 2 years vs further 5 years of adjuvant treatment with anastrozole after initial 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy. S.A.L.S.A. is a randomized open multicentered phase III study comparing the efficacy of secondary adjuvant endokrine treatment of Arimidex® (Anastrozol) for 2 or 5 years after primary adjuvant endokrine therapy in patients with hormonreceptor positive mammakarzinom. Patients are examined at screening, after 6 months, then every year until 5 years. The subsequent yearly follow up with mammographie and clinical examination ends 10 years after the screening. S.A.L.S.A. started in February 2004 and has recruited 3484 patients until June 2010 at 78 sites all over Austria.
Primary Endpoint:
1. Proof of the effect of 2 years versus 5 years of Anastrozol after 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy on the disease free survival
Secondary endpoint:
- Proof of the effect of 2 years versus 5 years of Anastrozol after 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy on the overall survival
- Comparison of fracture rate in both therapy groups
-
Comparison of incidence of
- a secondary carcinoma except the contralateral mammacarcinoma
- contralateral mammacarcinoma in both therapie groups

- Disease-free Survival After Prolonged Endocrine Treatment [ Time Frame: DFS was defined as the time from two years after randomization to the earliest occurrence of loco-regional recurrence, distant recurrence, contralateral new breast cancer, second cancer or death from any cause, assessed up to a maximum of 8.5 years ]To determine whether 5 years of additional Anastrozole was more effective than 2 years of additional Anastrozole after 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy in terms of disease-free survival.
- Overall Survival After Prolonged Endocrine Treatment [ Time Frame: Overall survival was defined as the time from two years after randomization to death due to any cause, assessed up to a maximum of 8.5 years ]To determine whether 5 years of additional Anastrozole was more effective than 2 years of additional Anastrozole after 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy in terms of overall survival.
- Time to First Clinical Fracture [ Time Frame: Time to first clinical fracture was defined as time to first clinical fracture, in the period from 2 years until 5 years after randomization for each patient. ]To determine the effect of 2 years versus 5 years of additional Anastrozole after 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy on the time to first clinical fracture. Patients without clinical fractures where censored at their last therapy visit (approximately 5 years after randomization).
- Time to Secondary Carcinoma [ Time Frame: Risk of secondary carcinoma was defined as the time from two years after randomization to first occurrence of new secondary cancer without new breast cancer (local or contralateral), assessed up to a maximum of 8.5 years ]To determine whether 5 years of additional Anastrozole was more effective than 2 years of additional Anastrozole after 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy in terms of lowering the risk of secondary carcinoma. Subjects without secondary cancer event were censored at the last date when they were known to be secondary cancer free.
- Time to Contralateral Breast Cancer [ Time Frame: Risk of contralateral breast cancer was defined as the time from two years after randomization to first occurrence of new contralateral breast cancer, assessed up to a maximum of 8.5 years ]To determine whether 5 years of additional Anastrozole was more effective than 2 years of additional Anastrozole after 5 years of adjuvant endocrine therapy in terms of lowering the risk of contralateral breast cancer. Subjects without contralateral breast cancer event were censored at the last date when they were known to be contralateral breast cancer free.
