Abstract
Seventy patients with advanced breast carcinoma were treated with a loading dose regimen of 160 mg Tamoxifen on day 1 followed by a maintenance dose of 20 mg daily from day 2 onwards. Compliance was 100% and only 3 patients developed mild side effects. In 27% regression of disease was observed within 1 month and in 57% within 2 months. This regimen is recommended for routine clinical use.
