DFS defined as time from randomization to earliest documentation of disease relapse or death from any cause in postmenopausal, receptor positive, node negative or node positive breast cancer patients for adjuvant treatment with exemestane compared with adjuvant tamoxifen therapy at 2.75 years. Disease relapse: primary tumor recurrence (locoregional or distant) and ipsilateral or contralateral breast cancer (CBC). Intercurrent death: death without disease relapse.
