Summary: The present study is to determine the adverse effects and clinical efficacy of AI combined with Capecitabine metronomic chemotherapy in postmenopausal breast cancer patients with Estrogen receptor and/or Progestrogen receptor positive.

Detailed description: Capecitabine (Xeloda ®) is currently the most biologically active oral fluoropyrimidine drug, and is widely used as first-line and second-line rescue therapy for advanced breast cancer ,third-generation aromatase inhibitors (AI) is the preferred adjuvant endocrine therapy for Postmenopausal hormone-sensitive breast cancer. Study showed that AI combined with metronomic chemotherapy could improve the objective response and clinical benefit in neoadjuvant therapy.
