Inhibice estrogenní aktivity
Diindolylmethane (DIM)
- Helps the body detoxify estrogen
- May help reduce the effects of excess estrogen.

Endocrine therapy + CDK4/6 inhibitors - palbociclib, ribociclib and abemaciclib
- Cyclin-dependent kinase (CDK) 4/6 inhibitors + ER-regulated cyclin D1
- Critical role in regulating transition from G1 to S phase
- In ER-positive, advanced breast cancer effective
- CDK inhibitors improve survival in women with metastatic ER-positive breast cancer
- When combined with aromatase inhibitors (letrozole and anastrozole)
- Or fulvestrant (Finn et al. 2016, Hortobagyi et al. 2016, Goetz et al. 2017)
Phase II trial in ovarian and endometrial cancer (n = 40)
- LGSC patients were among those showing the most significant benefit
- With all three women achieving durable responses
- One CR and two with partial responses over 2 years (Colon-Otero et al. 2020)
GOG 3026 (NCT03673124), a phase II trial - ribociclib + letrozole
NCT03531645, a phase II trial - fulvestrant + abemaciclib in LGSC
- Currently recruiting
Aromatase inhibitors in relapsed LGSC
- Similar at ~13%
Gershenson’s retrospective analysis, in 54 women
- Aromatase inhibitors
- Response rate was 13.0% (letrozole, 6/33; anastrozole, 1/21) (Gershenson et al. 2012)
PARAGON
- Objective response rate to anastrazole was 13.9% (36 patients) (Tang et al. 2019)
GOG 0281 trial
- 6/44 (13.6%) patients responded to letrozole (Gershenson et al. 2020a).
Aromatase inhibitors + CDK4/6 inhibitors
- Potential to increase response rates

Breast-fed girls
- Consume fewer calories than bottle-fed babies
- Grow more slowly in infancy
- Arrive at puberty significantly later
- Mechanism probably involves the adipocytokine leptin

The estrobolome
- Aggregate effect of bacteria in the gut capable of metabolizing estrogens
- Thereby modifying estrogen levels in the blood
- Affect the risk of breast cancer risk
- Affecting the age of puberty
- Early antibiotic use + lack of fiber in the modern diet
- Appear to bring puberty forward
- drpaulclayton.eu/blog/wasted-on-the-young/
Prebiotic fibers
- Up-regulate saccharolytic gram-positive species
- Which down-regulate various gram-negative species expressing beta-glucuronidase
- Thereby reduce circulating estrogen
- drpaulclayton.eu/blog/wasted-on-the-young/
Food deprivation
- (as in anorexia nervosa) reduces fat deposits and thence leptin, delaying puberty

Reduce endocrine disrupters
- Also linked to an increased risk of obesity and metabolic disorders
- Dietary strategies designed to reduce exposure to such compounds
- Likely to further improve our offspring’s sexual health and body composition.
- Encouraging our children to avoid fast foods such as
- Hamburgers,
- Fries and chicken nuggets
- Excessive use of plastic packaging
- Effects of endocrine disruptors on pubertal timing
- Are compound specific
- Vary according to the window of exposure
- Making them unlikely to be a major factor in pubertal acceleration as a whole

Tamoxifen
GOG 198 trial, which enrolled 139 patients
- Tamoxifen (20 mg twice daily)
- Thalidomide (100 mg daily with weekly dose escalation to a maximum dose of 400 mg daily
- Tamoxifen resulted in
- Median progression-free survival (PFS) of 3 months
- Median overall survival (OS) of 33 months
- Thalidomide resulted in
- A 4.5- and 24-month median PFS and OS
