During menopause, estrogen levels drop while the level of another hormone - LH (luteinizing hormone) substantially increases. This hormonal shift is linked to bone Loss and other complications. Estrogen therapy can help, but some women avoid it due to the increased risk of blood clots and cancer. This project will investigate whether blocking LH could offer a safe alternative to alleviate symptoms and complications of menopause since it is known from previous research that high LH levels contribute to both bone deterioration and metabolic issues. The goal is to explore new treatment options th…

Deep infiltrating endometriosis is a severe form of endometriosis that may reduce fertility and negatively affect pregnancy outcomes after assisted reproductive treatment. Gonadotropin-releasing hormone agonist pretreatment may suppress endometriotic lesions, reduce inflammation, and improve endometrial receptivity, but its benefit before frozen-thawed embryo transfer remains uncertain. This randomized controlled study will evaluate whether ultra-long GnRH-a pretreatment before hormone replacement therapy improves clinical pregnancy outcomes in patients with deep infiltrating endometriosis un…

This phase III trial compares the effect of giving triptorelin vs no triptorelin in preventing ovarian damage in adolescents and young adults (AYAs) with cancer receiving chemotherapy with alkylating agents. Alkylating agents are part of standard chemotherapy, but may cause damage to the ovaries. If the ovaries are not working well or completely shut down, then it will be difficult or impossible to get pregnant in the future. Triptorelin works by blocking certain hormones and causing the ovaries to slow down or pause normal activity. The triptorelin used in this study stays active in the body …

This study aims to compare different ovulation triggering strategies in women with low ovarian reserve undergoing fresh in vitro fertilization (IVF) cycles. Ovulation triggering is a key step in IVF treatment, as it determines final oocyte maturation prior to oocyte retrieval. Participants are randomly assigned to one of three ovulation trigger approaches: human chorionic gonadotropin (hCG) alone, follitropin delta combined with hCG, or dual trigger using a gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist plus hCG. The primary objective is to evaluate wether adding follitropin delta at the tim…

Breast cancer (BC), especially premenopausal, is emerging rapidly in East Asia in recent 20 years. Half of the breast cancer patients in Asia are younger than 50 years of age. In general, younger or premenopausal patients are associated with poorer prognosis. Premenopausal patients have higher estrogen levels than those in older (postmenopausal) patients. Estrogen is known to suppress anti-tumor T cell response and leading to tumor progression in different animal models (Clin Cancer Res 2016 22:6204), including lung cancer, melanoma, ovarian cancer. One of the mechanisms that contributes to e…

The primary objective of this study is to compare the efficacy of the 3-month formulation and 1-month formulation of triptorelin and to assess the short-term effects of the 3-month formulation of triptorelin on glucose and lipid metabolism, body composition, and bone density in Chinese ICPP patients.

The development of stimulation protocols for in vitro fertilisation (IVF) has led to a paradox. It has now been established that obtaining a large number of oocytes is a key to success, but that it is also a risk factor for embryo transfer failure after puncture (disruption of endometrial receptivity due to luteal insufficiency) and a risk factor for complications such as ovarian hyperstimulation syndrome (OHSS).

This phase II trial studies the effects of stereotactic body radiation therapy (SBRT) and the timing of treatment with androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in treating patients with hormone sensitive prostate cancer that has spread from where it first started to other places in the body (metastatic), and that has come back after a period of improvement (recurrent). It also studies the effects of salvage radiation therapy (sXRT) on prostate cancer and to see if radiation to the pelvis helps prevent prostate cancer from spreading elsewhere. SBRT is a…

Endometriosis is a chronic disease that affects 10-15% of women of childbearing age. The most common symptom is pelvic pain. One of the treatment options that has been proven effective in treating endometriosis symptoms, including endometriosis pain, is triptorelin. Triptorelin has also received a distribution permit in Indonesia for the treatment of endometriosis. However, patient compliance in using this drug is very low due to high medical costs and side effects of the drug. Standard treatment with triptorelin is generally given every 4 weeks. A previous preliminary study showed that tript…

The patients will be randomised in between treatment with triptorelin (experimental) or placebo (control) intramuscularly a 1:1 ratio during chemotherap…

The optimal indication for ADT has long been a point of controversy, at least until the results of randomised trials comparing RT with and without ADT were published. NCCN guidelines and most retrospective series and left the decision to prescribe ADT in combination with RT to the discretion of the treating physician, despite a lack of clear scientific evidence to support this recommendation. The percentage of patients in those retrospective series who received hormone therapy ranged from 33% to 71%, but generally involved patients with adverse prognostic factors (Gleason score \> 7, stage pT3…

To clarify the role of short-term Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in the context of intermediate unfavorable and a subclass of high-risk patients treated with prostate Stereotactic radiotherapy (SRT). In intermediate unfavorable risk group, when choosing standard external beam radiotherapy, short term ADT is superior in terms of biochemical disease free survival (bDFS) to EBRT alone. In high risk disease, results of the combination therapy are even more clear. Prostate SRT has been endorsed as option for primary radical treatment for prostate cancer. In such patients, the benefit of ADT is…

This phase III trial uses the Decipher risk score to guide therapy selection. Decipher score is based on the activity of 22 genes in prostate tumor and may predict how likely it is for recurrent prostate cancer to spread (metastasize) to other parts of the body. Decipher score in this study is used for patient selection and the two variations of treatment to be studied: intensification for higher Decipher score or de-intensification for low Decipher score. Patients with higher Decipher risk score will be assigned to the part of the study that compares the use of 6 months of the usual treatment…

This phase III trial compares the effect of adding darolutamide to ADT versus ADT alone after surgery for the treatment of high-risk prostate cancer. ADT reduces testosterone levels in the blood. Testosterone is a hormone made mainly in the testes and is needed to develop and maintain male sex characteristics, such as facial hair, deep voice, and muscle growth. It also plays role in prostate cancer development. Darolutamide blocks the actions of the androgens (e.g. testosterone) in the tumor cells and in the body. Giving darolutamide with ADT may work better in eliminating or reducing the size…

GnRH agonist triggering is used during ART in order to reduce the risk of OHSS. Some studies described that in up to 5% of the cycles triggered with GnRH agonist, a lack of respone or suboptimal response was displayed. The investigators aim to asses the possibility to predict the respone to ovulation triggering by the response to decapeptyl in the follicular phase of the same cycle.

Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is a mainstay of prostate cancer treatment to improve overall survival for intermediate- and high-risk localized disease as well as metastatic disease. While ADT improves survival, it can cause significant morbidity and a decrement in quality of life. In particular, ADT is associated with decrease in bone mineral density (BMD) and increased risk of fracture. Although current guidelines recommend continuous androgen deprivation therapy (CAD) as standard therapy for high-risk disease, there has been increasing recognition of adverse effects from CAD. Since 198…

The recurrence rates of endometriosis reported in women 5 years after therapy with gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist were 74% for severe disease . No strategies to prevent the recurrence of endometriosis have been uniformly successful. Local progesterone treatment of endometriosis-associated dysmenorrhea with a levonorgestrel-releasing intrauterine system (LNG-IUS) for 12 months has resulted in a significant reduction in dysmenorrhea, pelvic pain and dyspareunia; a high degree of patient satisfaction; and a significant reduction in the volume of rectovaginal endometriotic nodules. …

Estrogens are responsible for the disappearance of growth cartilage in the long bones at the end of the pubertal growth spurt both in boys and in girls. It is therefore hypothesized that stopping pubertal development and hence estrogen production, will prolong and increase the pubertal growth spurt, especially when growth hormone is given concommitantly. Boys in early puberty, with a bone age between 11 and 13 years and a predicted adult height below 163 cm or girls in early puberty with a bone age between 10 and 12 years and a predicted height under 151 cm will be treated with triptorelin 3.…

Supraphysiological hormonal stimulation enables collecting many oocytes in an In-Vitro Fertilization treatment, but may have a negative effect on uterine function and contribute the fact that the majority of preembryos placed in the uterus fail to implant. Several medical agents were shown to be beneficial when given in the luteal phase of an IVF cycle, but the optimal regimen has not been yet determined. In 2006, a European group reported that addition of GnRH analog (Decapeptyl) as luteal support in IVF cycle significantly improved pregnancy and delivery rates. It is not known whether this …
