pubmed:abstractText |
High-dose ketoconazole (HDK) in combination with steroids has been recognized as an effective secondary hormonal therapy in androgen-independent prostate cancer (AIPC). However, HDK causes more severe adverse events than low-dose ketoconazole (LDK). To the authors' knowledge, relatively little is known regarding the efficacy of LDK in AIPC. The efficacy of LDK and of subsequent dose escalation from LDK to HDK was evaluated as secondary hormonal therapy in patients with AIPC.
