Hormonal cytoreduction and radiotherapy for carcinoma of the prostate.

R J Shearer1, J H Davies, J S Gelister, D P Dearnaley.   

Abstract

We report the effect on prostatic volume of the administration of the luteinising hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) analogue goserelin in 22 patients with locally advanced carcinoma of the prostate; 20 achieved a significant reduction in volume, the median volume being 66 ml before treatment (range 40-130) and 30 ml after 17 weeks (range 13-47). If used before external beam radiotherapy (RT), volume reduction will permit smaller boost fields and thus potentially reduce adverse radiotherapy effects. In addition, reducing tumour volume before RT may lead to an increase in local control. We discuss the possible role of hormonal volume reduction in the management of prostatic cancer.
