1 Intermittent Androgen Deprivation Therapy (ADT): Benefits outweigh risks Laurence Klotz Professor of Surgery Sunnybrook Health Sciences Centre University of Toronto

2 Advantages of intermittent ADT Likely: Improved QOL with recovery of testosterone (hot flashes, libido, erectile function, frailty, etc.) Reduced morbidity and mortality (metabolic syndrome, CV disease,diabetes, bone mineral density loss) Reduced drug costs Potential: Re-exposure of stem/progenitor cells to androgen may prolong duration of androgen dependence (demonstrated in murine models) Opportunity for integrated therapy with cell cycle directed interventions
