Abstrakt: |
Eighty patients with advanced breast cancer were characterized by estrogen receptor (ER) status and by urine androgen (A) metabolites. After ovariectomy, patients with positive hormonal parameters were treated with hormonal therapy and patients with negative parameters were treated with chemotherapy. The results of the follow-up confirm that the survival is higher in patients with positive hormonal parameters (ER +, A+). In this group, the patients with increased urine androgen excretion (i.e. A+) apparently had a better long-term survival than ER + cases. |
