Karisma 2 clinical trial on low-dose tamoxifen is completed

We have now completed the Karisma 2 randomised clinical trial on low-dose tamoxifen. In all, 1,440 women were included in the Swedish two-centre study, at Södersjukhuset in Stockholm and at Unilabs in Lund. 

The results are being analysed and the first paper is expected to be published after the summer 2020. 

Karisma-2 is a dose optimisation study using tamoxifen for preventive use. Women were randomised to five arms of tamoxifen or placebo and were treated for six months.
