摘要
This review focuses on the development of GH receptor antagonist as a novel agent for treatment of acromegaly, its mechanism of action and potential areas of use. A brief overview of acromegaly, its diagnosis and existing medical, surgical and radiotherapy options of treatment is necessary to justify the addition of yet another therapeutic modality to the already vast therapeutic armamentarium.
