Abstract
Ten patients with non-extirpable adenocarcinoma of the pancreas received monthly subcutaneous implantations of the LHRH analogue goserelin. Subjective improvement (diminished abdominal pain and/or weight gain) occurred within 3 months in seven patients and persisted until about 2 months before death. The treatment was well tolerated by the patients. This preliminary study seems to warrant further investigation of goserelin in the management of pancreatic cancer.
