FinnProstate Group

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The FinnProstate Group (FP), or FinnProstate Study Group, is a group of scientific researchers in Finland who have conducted a series of clinical trials of treatments for prostate cancer.[1] The first publication by the group was in 1985[2] and the latest publication was in 2019.[3]

Clinical trials

[edit]

The studies conducted by the FinnProstate group include the following:[1]

[edit]

A related study, by the Finnish Zoladex Multicentre Study Group, assessed polyestradiol phosphate versus goserelin for advanced prostate cancer.[1][19] A British group also assessed polyestradiol phosphate 160 mg/month versus orchiectomy for advanced prostate cancer.[1][20] The SPCG-5 trial assessed polyestradiol phosphate 240 mg/month versus combined androgen blockade (triptorelin or orchiectomy plus flutamide) for advanced prostate cancer.[1][21][22][23]
