Abstract Text The Piedmont Oncology Association conducted a Phase II trial of fluoxymesterone (Halotestin) in 28 patients who failed to respond to prior hormonal therapy with tamoxifen and a progestational agent. Of nine patients who had responded to prior endocrine therapy, one had a partial response (PR) as defined by strict criteria and remains on study at 17 + months for an 11% response rate [95% confidence interval (CI), complete response (CR) + PR, 0-48%]. None of 19 previously unresponsive patients achieved remission (95% CI, CR + PR, 0-18%). Eleven patients' performance status deteriorated during therapy. Five of them had not received prior chemotherapy, and their response to subsequent chemotherapy may have been adversely affected. Third-line hormonal therapy with fluoxymesterone can be recommended only as a temporizing measure in patients with indolent disease who have responded to prior hormonal therapy.

Filtering

  • Case insensitive filtering will display rows if any text in any cell matches the filter term
  • Use simple literal full or partial string matches
  • Separate multiple filter terms with a space. Any order may be used (i. e. a b c and c b a are equivalent )
  • Filtering will only apply to rows that are already loaded on the page. Filtering has no impact on query parameters.
  • Use quotes to match on a longer phrase with spaces (i.e. "mtor c1483f")

Sorting

  • Generally, the default sort order for tables is set to be first column ascending; however, specific tables may set a different default sort order.
  • Click on any column header arrows to sort by that column
  • Hold down the Shift key and click multiple columns to sort by more than one column. Be sure to set ascending or descending order for a given column before moving on to the next column.
