MRI Substudy; Metabolic Changes Due to Iatrogenic Hypogonadism

October 27, 2015 updated by: Peter Busch Østergren, Herlev Hospital

MRI Substudy; Metabolic Changes Due to Iatrogenic Hypogonadism in Patients With Prostate Cancer: Orchiectomy vs. Triptorelin

The purpose of this study is to investigate if androgen deprivation therapy in men with prostate cancer increases hepatic fat content and changes visceral/subcutaneous fat distribution.

Study Overview

Detailed Description

This is a substudy of the ongoing randomized trial entitled: Metabolic Changes Due to Iatrogenic Hypogonadism in Patients With Prostate Cancer: Orchiectomy vs. Triptorelin (EudraCT number: 2013-002553-29). 20 consecutive patients are anticipated to participate regardless of assignment to either orchiectomy or triptorelin.
