Fulvestrant is an endocrine agent which degrades the estrogen receptor, thereby downregulating its signaling. Trials of fulvestrant are limited by inconsistent study populations and drug dosing. The optimal use of fulvestrant in advanced breast cancer is therefore unclear. A systematic

Endocrine therapies include aromatase inhibitors and the selective estrogen receptor (ER) downregulator fulvestrant. This study aimed to determine whether the reported efficacy of fulvestrant over anastrozole, and high- over low-dose fulvestrant, reflect distinct transcriptional responses.
