Predicting Response and Recognizing Resistance: Improving Outcomes in Patients With Castration-resistant Prostate Cancer. With Dr. Neal Shore

Optimal sequencing strategies for approved agents in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) are unclear. Retrospective clinical studies suggest cross-resistance between specific therapies. This review assesses treatment decisions for mCRPC. Increased use of chemohormonal therapy in castration-sensitive disease may affect subsequent treatment decisions in mCRPC. Initial abiraterone or enzalutamide treatment may result in cross-resistance for subsequent […]
