Official Title: Phase 3 Study of Atamestane Plus Toremifene Versus Letrozole in Advanced Breast Cancer

Brief Summary: The purpose of this study is to determine whether maximal estrogen suppression achieved via the combination of an experimental drug, atamestane, plus an FDA-approved drug, toremifene (Fareston®), is more effective than another approved drug, letrozole (Femara®), in delaying the growth of breast cancer, and whether the side effects of the combined hormonal therapy are different from the side effects of letrozole.
