Metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer: Practical guidelines and optimization of therapy selection

https://doi.org/10.17650/1726-9776-2018-14-4-139-149

Abstract

The treatment landscape for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) has rapidly evolved over the past 5 years. Although androgen-deprivation therapy is still the backbone of treatment, the addition of docetaxel or abiraterone acetate has improved outcomes for patients with mHSPC and become standard of care. With multiple treatment options available for patients with mHSPC, treatment selection to optimize patient outcomes has become increasingly difficult. Here, we review the clinical trials involving androgen-deprivation therapy plus docetaxel or abiraterone and provide clinicians with guidelines for treatment. Although surgery and/or radiation are standard of care for localized, intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer, these treatments are not routinely used as part of initial treatment plans for patients with de novo mHSPC. Recent clinical data are challenging that dogma, and we review the literature on the addition of surgery and radiation to systemic therapy for mHSPC.
