[Effect of neoadjuvant therapy with neovir on the level of steroid hormone receptors in endometrial cancer tissue].
The effects of neoadjuvant therapy with neovir, provera and their combinations on endometrial tumor morphology, progesterone (PR) and estradiol (ER) receptor levels were studied in 50 patients, aged 40-78, with primary tumors stage I-III, and without concomitant pathology. A 19-day course of neovir did not alter tumor morphological status but was followed by a significant rise in PR and ER concentrations. After neoadjuvant therapy in combination with provera, which generally lowers cytoplasmic receptor levels, mean values of receptors dropped in PR+ tumors while, in PR- tumors, they increased significantly. Our findings suggest that neovir may be used in clinic to stimulate endometrial tumor sensitivity to specific hormonal therapy, particularly, for hormone-independent neoplasia.
