Conclusion

L’hormonothérapie néo-adjuvante voit aujourd’hui ses indications se développer. Chez les personnes âgées, elle fait maintenant partie de la stratégie de référence, précédant le traitement loco-régional. Elle permet, en effet, une fois sur deux environ, d’éviter une mastectomie, qui peut être mal acceptée par certaines patientes qui perçoivent cette mutilation comme la déchéance débutante et irrémédiable de la sénescence. Une anti-aromatase doit alors être proposée. Des évaluations cliniques très régulières permettront de poursuivre le traitement jusqu’à l’obtention d’une réduction tumorale suffisante pour permettre un traitement loco-régional, toujours nécessaire.

Chez les femmes plus jeunes, l’hormonothérapie néo-adjuvante a très certainement sa place, qui demeure cependant actuellement mal définie, compte tenu des indications très larges de la chimiothérapie (néo-) adjuvante. Son utilisation dans des études prospectives permet de mieux appréhender les facteurs prédictifs de la réponse au traitement, tout particulièrement dans le cadre d’analyses génomiques déjà en cours pour la chimiothérapie.
