[Hormone therapy alone for pre-cancerous conditions and early endometrial cancer: pros and cons].
    Voprosy onkologii, 2014, Volume: 60, Issue:3

    The results of conservative treatment of 121 patients with endometrial atypical hyperplasia (EAH) and early endometrial cancer (EC) with preservation of fertility are presented. In EAH (n = 56) for 6 months the intrauterine spiral Mirena was used. The effectiveness was 91%, the recurrence rate 16%, pregnancies occurred in 16% of patients. In EC (n = 65) hormone therapy was conducted for 6 months using the intrauterine spiral Mirena and zoladex. The effectiveness was 79%, recurrence rate 22%, pregnancies occurred in 24% of patients. Based on our data and on the results of other studies, the benefits and risks of hormone therapy alone for EAH and EC are discussed in women of reproductive age.

Effects of castration, alone and in combination with aminoglutethimide, on growth of (pre)neoplastic lesions in exocrine pancreas of rats and hamsters.
    Carcinogenesis, 1991, Volume: 12, Issue:9

    We studied the effects of hormonal manipulation by orchiectomy, alone or in combination with the aromatase inhibitor aminoglutethimide (AGT), and by luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone agonist (LH-RH-A) (goserelin) treatment on the development of early putative (pre)neoplastic lesions induced in the pancreas of rats and hamsters by azaserine and N-nitrosobis(2-oxopropyl)amine respectively. Treatment of the animals started 1 week after the last injection with carcinogen and continued for 4 months. Orchiectomy caused a significant inhibition of growth of acidophilic atypical acinar cell nodules in the rat model, whereas surgical castration did not show an effect in the hamster model. In rats, but not in hamsters, orchiectomy resulted in a significant decrease in body weight and in absolute, but not relative pancreatic weight. Treatment of the animals with AGT or goserelin did not cause a significant effect on the development of either putative preneoplastic acinar lesions in rat pancreas or early ductular lesions in hamster pancreas. Hamsters showed clearly higher plasma epidermal growth factor (EGF) and insulin-like growth factor 1 (IGF-1) concentrations than rats, while plasma testosterone levels were significantly lower. Plasma EGF and IGF-1 levels decreased with increasing age in both control and treatment groups. Compared to controls there were no clear unequivocal effects of treatment on EGF, IGF-1 and gastrin levels. Plasma testosterone levels decreased by orchiectomy and LH-RH-A treatment. In rats hormone-induced effects on food intake and altered nutritional status might be important with respect to the development of carcinogen-induced preneoplastic pancreatic lesions.
