The present invention makes available, inter alia, methods and reagents for modulating smoothened-dependent pathway activation. In certain embodiments, the subject methods can be used to counteract the phenotypic effects of unwanted activation of a hedgehog pathway, such as resulting from hedgehog gain-of-function, ptc loss-of-function or smoothened gain-of-function mutations.

A method of protecting a patient from possible adverse effects of a treatment involving inhibition of the SHH-signalling pathway in the patient, the method comprising suppressing testosterone or its effect in the patient. A method of treating a proliferative disease such as cancer in a patient the method comprising inhibiting the SHH-signalling pathway and suppressing testosterone or its effect in the patient. Typically, the SHH-signalling pathway is inhibited using cyclopamine or a derivative thereof, and testosterone is suppressed using any one or more of a GnRH antagonist, a GnRH agonist, an androgen antagonist or a Sa-reductase inhibitor.
