We evaluated the clinical significance of indoleamine 2, 3-dioxygenase (IDO) during letrozol therapy for an elderly patient with locally advanced breast cancer. IDO activity was measured by the tryptophan (TrpVkynurenine (Kyn) ratio. Trp and Kyn levels were measured using high performance liquid chromatography (HPLC). Serum Trp/Kyn levels of the patient before endocrine therapy were lower than those after endocrine therapy. IDO activity decreased after endocrine therapy and correlated with the number of metastatic lymph node lesions during letrozol therapy. These results suggest that measuring the Trp/ Kyn ratio may be useful for evaluating immunological metastatic status during endocrine therapy in elderly patients with locally advanced breast cancer.
