Medscape - Abarelix
This is an interesting article about hormone treatment of prostate cancer in Medscape (registration required but free).
This article mentions Abarelix:
medscape.com
An excerpt:
<< Conclusions: A small but potentially important subgroup of men on depot LH-RH agonist therapy fail to achieve a castrate level of testosterone. Our findings support monitoring testicular response when LH-RH agonist therapy is initiated. >>
It would be interesting to know if the non-response has been observed with Abarelix as well. If not,this would be another argument for Abarelix.
