Do you use endocrine therapy concurrently or sequentially with radiation therapy in hormone receptor positive breast cancer patients?
In the absence of data demonstrating a clinical benefit for one strategy versus the other, what do you do in practice?

I do it concurrently for patients with high burden of disease (several lymph node positive). Otherwise, I wait as it's likely safe to postpone endocrine therapy a few weeks to after radiation therapy and spare patients concurrent side effects.
