Summary
[edit]
| Description |
English: Levels of testosterone (ng/dL) during therapy with 100 to 300 mg/day oral cyproterone acetate (CPA) and low-dose oral estrogen in men with prostate cancer. The estrogen used was 0.1 mg/day diethylstilbestrol (DES), which has been described as an "extremely low" dosage. By itself, 3 mg/day DES is able to consistently suppress testosterone levels into the castrate range in men. DES was discontinued at 5 months and reintroduced at 13 months to assess its contribution to suppression of testosterone levels. Levels of testosterone were decreased by about 95% with the combination and by about 61% with cyproterone acetate only.
