A New Anti-oestrogenic Agent in Late Breast Cancer: An Early Clinical Appraisal of ICI46474 (original) (raw)
Abstract
An introductory clinical trial of the anti-oestrogenic agent IC146474 in late or recurrent carcinoma of the breast is described.
Forty-six patients have been treated, of whom 10 have shown a good response. This is of the same order as that seen with oestrogens and androgens.
The particular advantage of this drug is the low incidence of troublesome side effects.
