Overview

This is a combination therapy that uses beta-interferon, interleukin-2, and tamoxifen together to treat hormone-positive metastatic breast cancer. The treatment typically follows a cyclic schedule where beta-interferon is administered first, followed by interleukin-2, while tamoxifen is given continuously. This combination aims to overcome endocrine resistance in breast cancer patients by enhancing the immune response while maintaining hormonal therapy. Studies have shown that this combination may prolong survival and response duration compared to tamoxifen alone in hormone receptor-positive breast cancer patients.
