摘要

The recent comprehensive review by Trost et al. highlighting the impact of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) with luteinising hormone-releasing hormone agonists (LHRHa) on quality of life (QoL) of prostate cancer survivors is timely in view of increasing usage and accumulating evidence of its harms [1]. LHRHa were developed because oral estrogen, a major option for treating prostate cancer through ADT in the second half of the 20th century, was discontinued due to its excessive cardiovascular (CVS) mortality [2]. The authors report a wide range of adverse events with LHRHa and include advice for monitoring and management options [1]. That contemporary ADT using LHRHa suppresses endogenous testosterone levels (by about 95%) is well known but that estrogen is derived from testosterone via aromatization and endogenous estrogen levels are consequently also reduced (by about 80%) is far less appreciated [3,4]. Thus in addition to achieving the treatment objective of arresting prostate tumor growth, the castrated male suffers unwanted side effects from this iatrogenic hypogonadism including sarcopenia, anemia, and erectile dysfunction (testosterone lack) and osteoporosis (with high risk of fractures), hot flushes and probably, cognitive impairment (estrogen lack) [5]. We concur that definitive evidence for the impact of castration on CVS mobidity/mortality remains wanting, but several observational studies support an increased risk of CVS complications [1,6].
