Cabergoline Withdrawal Before and After Menopause: Outcomes in Microprolactinomas.
Natural course of prolactinomas after menopause is not fully elucidated. The aim of this study was to compare recurrence rate after cabergoline withdrawal in premenopausal vs. postmenopausal women with microprolactinoma. Sixty-two women with microprolactinoma treated with cabergoline for at least 1 year and followed for 2 years after drug withdrawal were retrospectively selected. Patients were divided into two groups: 48 patients stopped cabergoline before menopause ("PRE" group), while 14 after menopause ("POST" group). Recurrence was defined by prolactin levels above normal, confirmed on two occasions. Overall, 39/62 women relapsed. Patients who relapsed apparently had higher prolactin before withdrawal (median 216.2, range 21.2-464.3 mIU/L) compared with those in long-term remission (94.3, 29.7-402.8 mIU/L; p < 0.05), and the risk of recurrence seemed lower in POST women (4/14, 29%) than in PRE ones (35/48, 73%, p < 0.005, OR 0.149, 95% CI 0.040-0.558). However, none of the factors (prolactin before withdrawal, menopausal status, treatment duration, complete adenoma regression) showed a correlation with recurrence risk in multivariate analysis. The best strategy able to optimize CBG treatment and withdrawal's outcomes is still to be defined in microprolactinomas. Postmenopausal status cannot reliably predict long-term remission, and follow-up is needed also in women of this age.
期刊介绍:
Hormones and Cancer is a unique multidisciplinary translational journal featuring basic science, pre-clinical, epidemiological, and clinical research papers. It covers all aspects of the interface of Endocrinology and Oncology. Thus, the journal covers two main areas of research: Endocrine tumors (benign & malignant tumors of hormone secreting endocrine organs) and the effects of hormones on any type of tumor. We welcome all types of studies related to these fields, but our particular attention is on translational aspects of research. In addition to basic, pre-clinical, and epidemiological studies, we encourage submission of clinical studies including those that comprise small series of tumors in rare endocrine neoplasias and/or negative or confirmatory results provided that they significantly enhance our understanding of endocrine aspects of oncology. The journal does not publish case studies.
