摘要: Most patients' prostate cancers respond to androgen deprivation but relapse after periods of several months years. Only two cancer xenografts, LNCaP and PC-346, have been reported be responsive subsequently. Both these tumors shrink slightly, if at all, less than 5 weeks withdrawal. After withdrawal, the human primary xenograft CWR22 regresses markedly, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) falls up 3000-fold in blood mice. PSA usually returns normal. In some animals, tumor relapses is then designated CWR22R. starts rise approximately 2-7 months, begins grow 3-10 castration. Animals with need euthanized because large 6-12 transplantation CWR22. Androgen withdrawal prolongs life 3-4-fold.
