The PATCH/STAMPEDE report in NEJM, 1,360 men with locally advanced, nonmetastatic prostate cancer were randomized to transdermal estradiol or an LHRH agonist. Estradiol was noninferior for metastasis-free survival: three-year rates were 87.1% versus 85.9%, respectively. Hot flashes occurred in 44% versus 89%, but gynecomastia in 85% versus 42%. nejm.org/doi/10.1056/NEJMoa2…
