摘要
One hundred and twenty patients with metastatic breast cancer, whose disease progressed on hormonal therapy with tamoxifen, were treated with aminoglutethimide. The overall response rate was 34% and the median duration of response 9.5 months. Response to aminoglutethimide was achieved in all metastatic sites except lung and brain. Even 25% of patients who had failed to respond to prior tamoxifen did respond objectively to aminoglutethimide. The actuarial survival for all patients at 30 months was 22% Although initial toxicity was high (70% side effects of aminoglutethimide were transient, and treatment had to be discontinued in only four patients. The results of this trial confirm that aminoglutethimide is an effective treatment in metastatic breast cancer. ©1990 Informa UK Ltd All rights reserved: reproduction in whole or part not permitted.
