* To compare overall Survival(OS) between the patients added Goserelin(ZOLADEXTM) to Tamoxifen and the patients treated with Tamoxifen alone in premenopausal status
* To compare 5-year disease free survival rate (DFS rate) between the patients who took tamoxifen only in postmenopause and the patients added Goserelin(ZOLADEXTM) to Tamoxifen for inducing ovarian function suppression in premenopause
* To determine the tolerability and safety of Tamoxifen with or without concomitant Zoladex
