2. Even in Castration resistance PC pts
Continue castration still play a role
3. Intermittent/continuing ADT?
• Less resistance in intermittent ADT?
• No diff in the survival
• Better QOL and less side effects in
intermittent group
• Continuous Tx still the mainstay treatment
5. Blocking the AR pathway
• CYP17A inhibitors(abiraterone)
• FDA approved
for the CRPC refractory to docetaxel
6. Why castration resistance?
• AR amplifications/hypersensitivity
• Enzalutamide >>bicalutamide in affinity for
the AR antagonist
7. • Docetaxel based therapy for metastatic
castration resistant prostate cancer
• Combined effect drug with the docetaxel?
8. • Taxel combined with avastin
More death in the avastin group
• Other regimen with endothelin A
antagonist, SRC inhibitors, immunomo-dulatory
agents are not proved to be
effective
9. • mCRPC refractory to the docetaxel, what
would be the next drug choice?
• Cabazitaxel and abiraterone acetate
• Other novel agents
Enzalutamide
10. Bone target therapy
• Denosumab, antibody to the RANKL to arrest
the osteoclast resorbtion and remodeling
• Denosumab vs zometa:
improved skeletal related events but no
change in survival
11. Bone target therapy
• Radium-223
• Decreased bone SRE and decreased bone pain
• Not shown to improved survival
