It is suggested that this class of analogs could be used for the diagnosis and therapy of disorders characterized by excessive GHRH secretion, and the suppression of circulating GH concentrations induced by the antagonists seems to be physiologically relevant.
Antagonists of growth hormone-releasing hormone (GH-RH) inhibit IGF-II production and growth of HT-29 human colon cancers

This study provides direct evidence for the effectiveness of potent GHRH antagonists such as MZ-4-71 and JV-1-36 on human pituitary GH-secreting adenoma tissue and strongly suggests that these drugs could be used for therapy of G HRH-associated forms of acromegaly, particularly for those patients in whom surgery fails or is not an option.
