The CSO of Pantarhei, Carole Verhoeven, will attend the St Gallen Breast Cancer Conference in Vienna. She will present a poster summarising the the design of the clinical study with estetrol in patients with advanced breast cancer (ABC E4 study). The hypothesis of this study is that the fetal estrogen estetrol may have anti-tumour effects in patients with advanced ER+ breast cancer and that it most likely will also improve patients quality of life by reducing symptoms of estrogen deficiency. This study will be conducted at three clinical sites in Germany. Enrolment is anticipated to start in April this year.
