Primary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Change in Maximum Volumetric Breast Density PercentageBaseline and 12 months

Change in Maximum Volumetric Breast Density Percentage from Baseline at 12 Months. Maximum volumetric breast density (max VBD%) which is calculated by fibroglandular breast volume divided by total breast volume (checked on the higher side, left or right) was used to obtain the study's endpoints. The primary endpoint was the annualized percent decrease in max VBD% between baseline (BL) and end-of-treatment (EOT) with HT.

Secondary Outcome Measures
NameTimeMethod
Number of Participants With Adverse EventsFrom informed consent up to 12 months

Number of participants with adverse events as assessed by the National Cancer Institute Common Terminology Criteria for Adverse Events v4.03
