The urinary excretion of hydroxyproline, measured as the hydroxyproline: creatinine ratio, was useful in monitoring the progression of metastatic cancer of the breast. After new treatment was started changes in the hydroxyproline excretion occurred earlier than other clinically observable responses. The test could therefore be used for predicting the response to treatment and early detection of the sensitivity of the tumour to hormone therapy.
以羟脯氨酸与肌酐的比值来衡量的羟脯氨酸尿排泄量,在监测乳腺癌转移癌的进展方面很有用。开始新的治疗后,羟脯氨酸排泄量的变化比其他临床可观察到的反应出现得更早。因此,该检测可用于预测治疗反应以及早期检测肿瘤对激素治疗的敏感性。
