Overview

Generic Name(s):
goserelin
Trade Name(s):
Zoladex
NCI Definition [1]:
A synthetic decapeptide analog of luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone (LHRH) with antineoplastic activity. Goserelin binds to and activates pituitary gonadotropin releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors. Prolonged administration of goserelin inhibits the secretion of pituitary gonadotropin, thereby decreasing levels of testosterone (in males) and estradiol (in females). Administration of this agent in a depot formulation may result in the regression of sex hormone-sensitive tumors and a reduction in sex organ size and function. (NCI04)

Goserelin has been investigated in 28 clinical trials, of which 24 are open and 4 are closed. Of the trials investigating goserelin, 2 are phase 1 (2 open), 16 are phase 2 (13 open), 1 is phase 2/phase 3 (1 open), and 9 are phase 3 (8 open).

ER Positive, HER2 Deficient Expression, and HER2 Negative are the most frequent biomarker inclusion criteria for goserelin clinical trials.

Breast carcinoma, prostate adenocarcinoma, and invasive breast carcinoma are the most common diseases being investigated in goserelin clinical trials [2].
