29 Summary  Aromatase inhibitors offer a modest but significant benefit over tamoxifen in both the metastatic and adjuvant settings  In the adjuvant setting, it remains unclear whether upfront aromatase inhibitor therapy is superior to sequencing approach  High-risk premenopausal patients should receive an aromatase inhibitor as part of their adjuvant therapy (after 2 years, 5 years, or when off tamoxifen)
