Zoledronic acid and denosumab can be used in men with mCRPC and osseous metastases to prevent skeletal-related complications .
PATIENT SUMMARY In men with a rise in their PSA levels after prior local treatment for prostate cancer only , it is important to balance overtreatment against further progression of the disease since survival and quality of life may never be affected in many of these patients .
OBJECTIVE To present a summary of the 2016 version of the European Association of Urology ( EAU ) - European Society for Radiotherapy & Oncology ( ESTRO ) - International Society of Geriatric Oncology ( SIOG ) Guidelines on the treatment of relapsing , metastatic , and castration-resistant prostate cancer ( CRPC ) .
EVIDENCE SYNTHESIS Relapse after local therapy is defined by a rising prostate-specific antigen ( PSA ) level > 0.2ng/ml following radical prostatectomy ( RP ) and > 2ng/ml above the nadir after radiation therapy ( RT ) .
And rogen deprivation therapy ( ADT ) remains the basis for treatment of men with metastatic prostate cancer ( PCa ) .
Level 1 evidence for the treatment of metastatic CRPC ( mCRPC ) includes , abiraterone acetate plus prednisone ( AA/P ) , enzalutamide , radium 223 ( Ra 223 ) , docetaxel at 75 mg/m2 every 3 wk and sipuleucel-T. Cabazitaxel , AA/P , enzalutamide , and radium are approved for second-line treatment of CRPC following docetaxel .
CONCLUSIONS The knowledge in the field of advanced and metastatic PCa and CRPC is changing rapidly .
Combined androgen blockade with bicalutamide for advanced prostate cancer
A previously reported , double‐blind , r and omized , multicenter phase 3 trial in 205 patients with stage C/D prostate cancer compared combined and rogen blockade ( CAB ) with luteinizing hormone‐releasing hormone agonist ( LHRH‐A ) plus bicalutamide 80 mg versus LHRH‐A plus bicalutamide‐matching placebo ( LHRH‐A monotherapy ) . The analysis at a median follow‐up of 2.4 years indicated that CAB significantly ( P < .001 ) prolonged the time to progression and the time to treatment failure . In the current report , survival data from a long‐term follow‐up ( median , 5.2 years ) were analyzed
