About The Study: In this cohort study of patients with early breast cancer, prediagnostic statin use was not associated with higher survival; however, postdiagnostic statin use was associated with lower all-cause and breast cancer–specific mortality among patients with hormone receptor–positive intrinsic subtypes. These findings suggest that statin therapy may improve survival of patients with early hormone receptor–positive subtypes.
