ExcerptRelevanceReference
"Although tamoxifen appears to markedly reduce breast cancer risk in women with a prior diagnosis of atypical hyperplasia or in situ carcinoma, it is not clear what other groups of women receive substantial benefit."8.81Beyond tamoxifen new endpoints for breast cancer chemoprevention, new drugs for breast cancer prevention. ( Fabian, CJ; Kimler, BF, 2001)
