Enlargement of the male breast is frequently encountered in the course of adjuvant antiandrogen therapy for advanced prostate carcinoma. The clinical differential diagnosis in this setting includes hormonal imbalance-induced gynecomastia, primary breast carcinoma, and metastasis of prostatic
METHODS

OBJECTIVE
Adverse events of drug therapy.
BACKGROUND
Bicalutamide is a nonsteroidal anti-androgen used extensively during the initiation
In manifest prostatic carcinoma, partial and complete remissions are obtained in 14-44% of patients as judged by different sets of criteria, but in up to 61% as judged by a decrease in prostatic acid phosphatase. Moreover, this decrease is poorly correlated to that of prostatic size. Prostatic acid
Orchiectomy or chronic administration of the gonadotropin releasing hormone agonistic analogue D, Ser (TBU)6, des Gly-NH2(10) ethylamide (HOE 766) were employed as therapeutic maneuvers in 25 patients with advanced prostatic carcinoma. HOE 766 administration effectively suppressed plasma
In a randomized, prospective trial, 199 previously untreated patients with Stage D2 prostatic cancer were treated with 3 mg/day diethylstilbestrol (DES) or 1 mg/day leuprolide acetate, a luteinizing hormone releasing hormone analog. Both DES and leuprolide suppressed testosterone to the desired
Three cases of metastatic adenocarcinoma of the male breast from prostatic carcinoma are added to the 15 well-documented cases reported in the literature. These 15 cases had received estrogen therapy for prostatic cancer and gynecomastia developed; 14 had clinically palpable breast nodules
Breast masses in male patients who have prostatic carcinoma may represent gynecomastia secondary to estrogen therapy, metastasis of the prostatic carcinoma to the breast, or a primary carcinoma of the breast. Accurate diagnosis of this lesion by biopsy and, if possible, histochemical determination
Maximal androgen blockade (MAB), the eradication of the effects of adrenal androgens on prostate cancer cells after castration, has been used with differing success in the treatment of prostatic carcinoma. The aim of this randomized phase III study was to compare the efficacy and side effects of
We compared the efficacy and safety of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone analogue, leuprolide (1 mg subcutaneously daily), with diethylstilbestrol (DES, 3 mg by mouth daily) in patients with prostate cancer and distant metastases (Stage D2) who had not previously received systemic treatment.
Recently, the finding of high plasma concentration of phyto-oestrogens in soy protein formula (SPF) fed children has focused scientific attention on the phyto-oestrogens (isoflavones genistein, daidzein, and their glycosides) contained in SPFs. The aim of this study was to evaluate some hormonal and
BACKGROUND
Prostate carcinoma is among the most common solid tumors to secondarily involve the male breast. Prostate specific antigen (PSA) and prostate-specific acid phosphatase (PSAP) are expressed in benign and malignant prostatic tissue, and immunohistochemical staining for these markers is
