Purpose : To estimate the effect of fasting during Ramadan (the ninth lunar month) on adherence to oral hormonal therapies (OHT) among breast cancer (BC) patients.
Patients and Methods : During Ramadan 2010, 139 BC patients were interviewed at the Egyptian National Cancer Institute.
They were asked about fasting as well as intake of OHT in Ramadan and in the preceding month.
Results: The median age was 50 years and most patients were postmenopausal with good performance status and non-metastatic disease.
The median number of fasting days was 18 % and 93 % of patients were fasting 80 % or more of Ramadan.
Tamoxifen and aromatase inhibitors were used in 64 % and 36 %, respectively.
Adherence to OHT during Ramadan and its preceding month were 94.2 % and 95.7 %, respectively (p = 0.77).
In univariate analysis, non-adherence prior to Ramadan and shorter duration of OHT were predictors of non-adherence during Ramadan (P < 0.001, respectively).
Fasting, age, performance status, presence of metastases and type of, 0.003 hormonal therapy were not good predictors of adherence.
Conclusions : While most of patients receiving OHT for BC are fasting during Ramadan, this does not negatively impact compliance with treatment.
