Abstract

The presented data open up interesting prospects for studying the biological responses of progestogens in clinical trials in patients with breast cancer. Estradiol is one of the main factors that control the growth and development of breast cancer. Therefore, an important goal of research in recent years is to block the formation of estradiol inside cancer cells.
