Abstract

The arsenal of available treatments and treatments for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHRPC) has increased significantly over the past 5 years. Although androgen-preferential therapy (ADT) remains the mainstay of treatment, the addition of docetaxel, abiraterone, enzalutamide, apalutamide, or local external beam radiation therapy improves the outcome of patients with mHRPC and becomes the standard of care. Choosing a therapy to improve treatment outcomes for patients with mHRPC is becoming increasingly challenging as there are different options for this stage of the disease. This article provides an overview of clinical trials that included ADT in combination with chemotherapy, new hormonal therapy, and radiation therapy. We will also consider recent advances in the choice of treatment for men diagnosed with mHPCR and the impact of previous therapy on the subsequent biology of the disease. Options include chemohormone therapy, androgen receptor (AR) targeted therapy in addition to ADT or, less commonly, ADT alone. The choice of treatment should be based on a consideration of the clinical characteristics and characteristics of the disease, as well as taking into account the patient’s preferences, territorial constraints and financial resources.
