Patients [24] with advanced carcinoma of the male breast were treated with tamoxifen citrate (Nolvadex). An objective regression rate of 37.5% was obtained, with 5 complete and 4 partial responses. Two patients had stabilization of their disease for 24 mo. each. Regression of disease was noted in soft-tissue disease, bone and lung metastases. The duration of response ranged from 8-60 mo. with a mean of 21 mo. In view of the singular lack of side-effects and the age group of the patients (mean age 63 yr), tamoxifen should be the 1st line of endocrine therapy before orchidectomy or adrenalectomy.
