Could Zytiga be Used for Colon Cancer ?

Exciting new research results are revealing a crucial role of testosterone in the development and progression of colon cancer. Colorectal cancer is on the increase in the western world and is often fatal. Surgery leads to debiltating side effects such as the use of colostomy bags and so an effective treatment for colon cancer is really needed. Zytiga effectively blocks testosterone biosynthesis and reduces plasma testosterone level to zero. Could Zytiga be therefore used to treat colon cancer by starving the colon cancer cells of testosterone ? This is an interesting proposition and is worthy of a clinical trial. Perhaps Johnson & Johnson should now investigate this intriguing possibility. A clinical trial of Zytiga against colon cancer would be really interesting scientifically.
