Medroxyprogesterone in metastatic renal cell carcinoma.

Abstract:

:We have described a patient in whom complete regression of pulmonary metastases from renal cell carcinoma (RCC) followed treatment with medroxy-progesterone acetate (Depo-Provera). Although the reported rate of objective response to progesterone therapy in RCC is only 10% to 15%, the occasionally dramatic results, especially in men, warrant a trial of this agent. Other more toxic agents have consistently failed to provide significant responses.
