  • Title: Estracyt--clinical experiences.
    Author: Nilsson T.
    Journal: Scand J Urol Nephrol Suppl; 1980; 55():135-8. PubMed ID: 6938016.
    Abstract:
    Since the introduction of estrogen treatment of prostatic carcinoma in 1941 this treatment has been considered the treatment of choice until recently, when both conventional cytotoxic compounds and hormone cytotoxic agents have been used. Preliminary results are in many aspects very promising (Jönsson, Högberg & Nilsson, 1977). However, controlled randomized series are badly needed to give a final answer how to proceed. So far chemotherapy has been given only for palliation but new approaches and combined treatment modalities might point forward to a treatment that, hopefully, will cure prostatic carcinoma especially if the treatment is started in the very early stages.
