ABSTRACT:
Methods for treating prostate cancer are disclosed. The methods of the invention generally feature administration to a subject of an LHRH-R antagonist, in combination with a second therapy. In one embodiment, this second therapy is performance of a procedure that removes or destroys prostatic tumor tissue, such as a radical prostatectomy, cryosurgery or X-ray therapy (external or interstitial). In another embodiment, the second therapy is treatment with an LHRH-R agonist, either simultaneous with or subsequent to LHRH-R antagonist therapy. The methods of the invention can further involve administering an antiandrogen and/or an inhibitor of sex steroid biosynthesis to the subject in combination with the LHRH-R antagonist.
