Breast Cancer Screening
Females 20-30s = CBE q 3 years
>40= mamograpy yearly and CBE yearl

Self breast exams encouraged starting in 20s
Patients with family history= genetic testing, MRI, or early mammograms may be considered
Colorectal Cancer Screening
Men and Women> 50 yrs = sigmoidoscopy, CT scan, barrium enema q 5 yrs or colonoscopy q 10 years
AND a fecal occult blood test, fecal immunochemical test, or stool DNA test yearly
Cervical Cancer Screening
starting at age 21 years,

21-29 yrs = PAP test every 3 years
30 -65= PAP and HPV test every 5 years or PAP every 3 years
>65 years with all normal cervical cancer test results do not need testing
Prostate Cancer Screening
Provide screening info to men >50
- info may be provided earlier to men with FH, and african americans

PSA with or without a digital rectal exam is standard screening measure
Define Response
Partial Response
Stable disease and
Progression
R- no disease for 1 month
PR- >50% reduction in tumor size
SD- less thatn 25% reduction in tumor
P- >25% growth of tumor or growth into new site
Neoadjuvant/ induction therapy
tx used prior to start of primary regimen to shrink tumor initially
Adjuvant therapy
tx give after primary tx in attempt to eradicate residual disease
CHemo Dosing and BSA

What is the Formula
SQR ROOT [(height in cm x weight in kg)/3600]
Gosrelin**
Zoladex
LHRH agonist (Leutenizing Hromone Releasing Hormone) and is an anti androgen
Histrelin
Vantos
LHRH agonist (Leutenizing Hromone Releasing Hormone) and is an anti androgen
Leuprolide**
Lupron (IM), Eligard (SC), Viadur (SC)
LHRH agonist (Leutenizing Hromone Releasing Hormone) and is an anti androgen
Triptorelin
Trelstar
LHRH agonist (Leutenizing Hromone Releasing Hormone) and is an anti androgen
LHRH agonist
Use, MEchanism, SE, monitor
Prostate CA in males
endometriosis, fibroids, annd breast cancer in females

*** initially increases androgens/ and estrogens followed by down regulation thhrough negative feedback of gonadotropin release, LH and FSH ****** So a estrogen or androgen antagonist needs to be started 1 week prior to these agents to prevent tumor flare

***Hot flashes, bone pain, impotence, injection site pain, dyslipidemia, QT prolongation, gynecomastia, and peripheral edema

***Monitor DEXA , supplement CA and vit D
Bicalutamid**
Casodex
50mg po qd
Androgen Receptor Blocker
Flutamide
Eulexin
250mg po q8h
Androgen Receptor Blocker
Nilutamide
Nilandron
Androgen Receptor Blocker
Antrogen Receptor Blockers
-use and SE
Prostate cancer usually given with LHRH agonist
- hot flash, DNV, gynecomastia, hepatotoxicity impotence

**night blindness with nilutamide, and more GI upset with flutamide
abiraterone acetate
Brand
MOA
SE
zytiga 5mg po BID or 10mg QD
*pregnenolone analog that ireversibly inhibits CYP c17 inhibitor--> the reate limiting enzyme in androgen production in the testes, adrenals, and prostate
* hypokalemia, HTN, fluid retention
** TAKE ON EMPTY STOMACH
Enzalutamide
Xtandi
- used in castration resistant metastatic prostate cancer
- receptor signaling pathway inhibitor
Degarelix
Firmagon
GRH antagonist
-similar efficacy to LHRH agonist but doens't cause tumor flare

***CYP 2DG *4 and *5 polymorphism results in shorter disease free survival
***Caution with 3A4, 2D6, and 2C9 DDI
Toremifene
farestron
SERM
SERMs and ERB
-selectively blocks estrogen at receptor sige
- CA in hormone receptor positive tumors in post menopausal women ( except tamoxifen indicated for pre and post menopausal women and men)
-BBW for increased risk of thromboembolic events
-SE--cataracts, and endometrial cancer risk increases
