Summary
The purpose of this study is to identify the combined impact on bone loss as well as the incidence of bone fractures in women with estrogen receptor (ER)-positive, early breast cancer treated with an aromatase inhibitor (AI) either as first line therapy or as maintenance therapy after initial treatment with chemotherapy, in real life clinical settings in Greece.
