Androgen Receptor-Targeted Therapies in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: Treatment Selection, Sequencing, and Considerations

Key opinion leaders explore the expanding treament landscape for mCRPC.

Key opinion leaders explore the role of androgen receptor-targeted therapy in mCRPC.

Key opinion leaders explore strategies for managing common side effects associated with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) treatments, including androgen receptor-targeted therapies.

Key opinion leaders discuss considerations for sequencing androgen receptor-targeted therapies in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, evaluating their benefits in first-line versus second-line treatment settings.

This discussion provides an overview of abiraterone and the key differences between micronized and non-micronized formulations, including considerations for choosing between the two formulations.

This discussion explores the differences in the effects of abiraterone formulations when combined with prednisone or methylprednisolone.

Panelists discuss how the STAAR study (Stein, 2018) indicates that the micronized abiraterone formulation results in lower average serum testosterone levels in 25% of patients compared to 17% with the originator formulation, potentially influencing treatment selection.

Panelists discuss how criteria such as patient comorbidities, disease progression levels, and treatment goals should be considered when selecting the appropriate form of abiraterone for patients with mCRPC, and also explore the potential benefits and drawbacks of using micronized abiraterone in specific patient populations.
