Abstract
The gonadotropin hormone-releasing hormone agonist histrelin acetate provided in a unique implant delivery device is effective for treating men with advanced prostate cancer, as demonstrated by the suppression of testosterone and LH to castrate levels at 4 weeks and the maintenance of these levels during 52 weeks. PSA, a secondary end point for effectiveness, was also suppressed significantly from baseline.
