Summary for Patent: 9,415,085

Title:	Method of treating prostate cancer with GnRH antagonist
Abstract:	The invention provides methods and dosing regimens for safely and effectively treating androgen-dependent prostate cancer with a gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist without causing a testosterone spike and/or other side effect of GnRH agonist therapy such as a urinary tract infection, or an arthralgia-related or cardiovascular side effect. The present disclosure also provides for methods for treating prostate cancer in a patient with a history of at least one cardiovascular event, wherein administration of degarelix to the subject decreases the likelihood of developing or experiencing an additional cardiovascular event compared to treatment with a gonadotrophin releasing hormone (GnRH) agonist.
