Because breast cancer cells have lost the characteristics of normal cells, the connection between cells is loose and easy to fall off. Once they fall off, the free cancer cells can spread throughout the body with blood or lymph fluid to form metastasis, which is life-threatening.

Currently, the commonly used chemotherapy drugs for breast cancer are:

1. Xeloda (capecitabine tablets): used for the treatment of advanced primary or metastatic breast cancer and rectal cancer and colon cancer.

2. Furui (letrozole tablets): By inhibiting aromatase, the estrogen level is reduced, thereby eliminating the stimulating effect of estrogen on tumor growth. It is mainly used clinically to treat postmenopausal patients with advanced breast cancer who are receiving anti-estrogen therapy.

3. Sulai (exemestane tablets): It is an endocrine therapy drug. Its mechanism of action is mainly to prevent the production of estrogen by inhibiting aromatase. It is mainly suitable for postmenopausal patients with advanced breast cancer whose disease progresses after treatment with tamoxifen.
