Management of systemic prostate cancer: current algorithm from castration sensitive to castration resistant setting

Eur Rev Med Pharmacol Sci. 2022 Nov;26(22):8481-8501. doi: 10.26355/eurrev_202211_30384.

Abstract

In recent years, the advanced knowledge of clinical, biological and molecular features of prostate cancer have led to the introduction of new drugs and have allowed the relocation of old drugs in different settings. In this way, the new concepts of systemic disease arise: high risk or high volume vs. low risk and low volume disease castration sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC), diversifying the use of previously approved drugs (CRPC) and opening new scenarios for sequence therapy. The aim of this review is to integrate new developments into the medical management of systemic prostate cancer.
