Research paper on positive results treatment for advanced breast cancer with the fetal estrogen estetrol (E4) has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology
/in PublicationsPantarhei Oncology proudly announces that its paper ‘Tumor Suppression, Dose Limiting Toxicity and Wellbeing with the Fetal Estrogen Estetrol (E4) in patients with advanced breast cancer’ has been accepted for publication in the Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology after comprehensive review. The Journal of Cancer Research and Clinical Oncology is an international peer-reviewed scientific journal in the field of oncology.
The research paper states that treating postmenopausal women diagnosed with advanced breast cancer can be treated safely with high doses of E4. All 12 patients enrolled had progressive, heavily pre-treated advanced breast cancer. No treatment-related serious adverse events or doses of limiting toxicity (DLTs) occurred during the first 4 weeks of E4 treatment allowing further investigation of all three doses. Five of nine patients completing 12 weeks of E4 treatment showed objective anti-tumor effects and six of nine patients reported improved wellbeing.

Review paper on the risk of breast cancer in relation to gender, breast development and gonadal function published in JCEM
/in News, PublicationsThe Journal of Clinical Endocrinology & Metabolism has accepted the manuscript “Breast Cancer and Major Deviations of Genetic and Gender-related Structures and Function” by Herjan J.T. Coelingh Bennink, Jan F.M. Egberts, Jan A. Mol, Kit C.B. Roes, Paul J. van Diest for publication. The review reports of the risk of breast cancer (BC) in relation to gender, breast development and gonadal function in eight populations with different genetic conditions. Main three conclusions are: 1) the presence of an Y chromosome protects against the development of BC; 2) Without menstrual cycles, BC hardly occurs with an incidence comparable to males; 3) BC has been reported only once in genetic females with the Mayer-Rokitansky-Küster-Hauser syndrome, who have normal breasts and ovulating ovaries with normal levels of estrogens and progesterone.
