Antiandrogens alone or in combination for treatment of prostate cancer: The European experience

1989

Abstract In Europe, antiandrogens have been used for many years to treat prostate cancer, either as monotherapy or as part of a “combination therapy” with either surgical or chemical castration. However, considerable debate still exists regarding the relative benefits of combination therapy versus antiandrogen monotherapy or castration alone. This article reviews the European experience with antiandrogen therapy, including the personal experiences of the authors.
