To review comparative studies of the gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists goserelin, triptorelin, and leuprorelin for the treatment of prostate cancer, and identify whether there are meaningful clinical differences between these agents.
Observational studies generate information on real-world therapy and complement data from prospective randomized trials. LEAN is an open-label, non-interventional, multi-centre, German cohort study on leuprorelin in routine clinical practice.
Leuprorelin acetate (TAP-144-SR) is commonly used worldwide in prostate cancer patients. This study was conducted to assess the non-inferiority of a 6-month depot formulation of TAP-144-SR (TAP-144-SR [6M]) 22.
This study was conducted to determine the efficacy of switching therapy with a second-line luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogue after prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression for advanced prostate cancer.
Luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonists such as leuprolide acetate (LA) are the most frequently utilized treatment of advanced prostate cancer as the regimen for achieving androgen deprivation therapy (ADT).
BACKGROUND/AIM - Patients with prostate cancer treated with neoadjuvant androgen ablation experience less radiation-induced intestinal toxicity, mostly due to a reduction of the volume of normal tissue exposed to high radiation doses. We aimed to evaluate if the anti-androgenic drug leuprorelin itself exerts a protective effect on irradiated bowel.
The treatment options for high-risk prostate cancer are either radical prostatectomy or radiotherapy/brachytherapy depending on the patients' prognosis. In older men with multiple comorbidities, radiotherapy with androgen deprivation therapy is an attractive option.
