摘要 The invention provides methods and dosing regimens for safely and effectively treating androgen-dependent prostate cancer with a gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist without causing a testosterone spike and/or other side effect of GnRH agonist therapy such as a urinary tract infection, or an arthralgia-related or cardiovascular side effect.

主权项 1. A method of treating prostate cancer in a subject with a reduced likelihood of causing a testosterone spike or other gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist side-effect comprising: administering an initial dose of 160-320 mg of degarelix to the subject, wherein the initial dose is administered as two subcutaneous injections; and administering a maintenance dose of 60-160 mg of degarelix to the subject once every 20-36 days thereafter, wherein the maintenance dose results in a testosterone suppression below 0.5 ng/mL; thereby treating prostate cancer in the subject with a reduced likelihood of causing a testosterone spike or other GnRH agonist side effect.
