DOSSIER THÉMATIQUE Hormones avant et après cancer du sein
les IA ? Quelles patientes en bénéficient vraiment ?
Les analyses de sous-groupes menées dans les prin-
cipales études n’ont pas pu en isoler de manière
fiable (20, 21). Les recommandations des sociétés
savantes mentionnent prudemment l’introduction
des IA, à un moment ou à un autre, dans la prise
en charge (22). Il est en effet vraisemblable que les
IA sont bénéfiques, ce qui est aussi confirmé par la
dernière analyse de l’étude BIG-1-98 (23). La décision
doit se prendre en concertation avec la patiente en
fonction des différents effets secondaires et éven-
tuelles contre-indications (tableau V).

Conclusion
Les traitements hormonaux sont la pierre angu-
laire de la prise en charge médicale des cancers
du sein RE+. Le panorama est maintenant stabilisé
aussi bien à la phase avancée que précoce, et les
nouvelles indications, soutenues par la biologie,
se profilent. Le choix entre IA et tamoxifène chez
la femme ménopausée est guidée par les recom-
mandations internationales et le profil clinique
individuel, dans l’attente d’éventuels paramètres
biologiques. ■
