Complete regression of bone metastases on super bone scan, by low-dose cisplatin, UFT, diethylstilbestrol diphosphate, and dexamethasone in a patient with hormone-refractory prostate cancer

2003 
Many types of chemotherapy are now being attempted all over the world for hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) patients, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) reduction in almost half of the treated patients has been reported. However, only a few studies have reported the response of bone metastasis. The authors report a patient with HRPC who obtained complete regression of bone metastases on super bone scan by biochemical modulation (BM), dexamethasone, and endocrine therapy.
