The phase III ACIS trial met its primary endpoint at 6 months showing that apalutamide plus abiraterone acetate/prednisone (AAP) extended radiographic progression-free survival vs abiraterone acetate/prednisone alone in patients with chemotherapy-naive metastatic castration-resistant prostate. (ascopost.com)
If patients progressed, they could receive secondary treatment with abiraterone acetate and prednisone. (medscape.com)
Zytiga2
Many patients had previously been treated with abiraterone acetate (Zytiga), enzalutamide (Xtandi), a combination of both, or apalutamide (Erleada) or proxalutamide. (onclive.com)
Results from the placebo-controlled phase 3 PROpel trial showed that adding the PARP inhibitor olaparib (Lynparza) to frontline abiraterone acetate (Zytiga) significantly improved radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS) in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). (urologytimes.com)
MCRPC9
Men with mCRPC were included if they had at least one pharmacy claim for enzalutamide or abiraterone (first claim date = index date) following surgical or medical castration, had no chemotherapy treatment within 12 months prior to the index date, and had continuous VHA enrollment for at least 12 months pre- and post-index date. (statinmed.com)
We identified 1229 men with mCRPC prescribed enzalutamide and 1945 prescribed abiraterone with mean ages of 74 and 73 years, respectively. (statinmed.com)
Enzalutamide-treated men with chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC had significantly lower resource utilization and healthcare costs compared with abiraterone-treated men. (statinmed.com)
We aimed to assess the cardiovascular safety of abiraterone acetate in a real-world series of mCRPC patients treated at our institution. (journaltocs.ac.uk)
Materials and Methods: We retrospectively included mCRPC patients with at least 1 active cardiovascular comorbidity or risk factor according to the European Society of Cardiology (ESC) guidelines and who started treatment with abiraterone acetate from April 2011 to July 2012. (journaltocs.ac.uk)
Conclusions: Abiraterone acetate showed a favorable safety profile in mCRPC patients with cardiovascular comorbidities or risk factors in a post-docetaxel setting, but further studies are needed to confirm our findings and to explore other settings of disease. (journaltocs.ac.uk)
In the international, double-blind, phase 3 PROpel trial (NCT03732820), investigators randomized patients with mCRPC in the first-line setting 1:1 to receive olaparib at 300 mg twice daily plus abiraterone at 1000 mg daily (n = 399) or placebo and abiraterone at 1000 mg daily (n = 397). (urologytimes.com)
For Cohort B: Has received prior treatment with either abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide (but not both) in the prechemotherapy mCRPC state. (aiom.it)
For Cohort C: Has received prior treatment with abiraterone acetate in the pre-chemotherapy mCRPC state without prior enzalutamide. (aiom.it)
Docetaxel2
RESULTS: All patients were treated with docetaxel and abiraterone acetate and 42 patients (89%) with cabazitaxel. (ru.nl)
A large phase 3 trial of abiraterone acetate in patients who have progressed following docetaxel based chemotherapy were published in 2011 and dramatically proved that CRPC is still androgen-dependant and responds to CYP17 inhibition. (urotoday.com)
CRPC3
Recently, we studied the metabolism of abiraterone (Abi), a steroidal compound that is used to treat metastatic CRPC. (aacc.org)
Serum samples from patients with CRPC undergoing treatment with Abi acetate were collected. (aacc.org)
METHODS: We evaluated toxicity, overall survival (OS), progression-free survival (PFS) and time to prostate-specific antigen (PSA) progression data from 47 CRPC patients treated with fourth- or fifth-line Enz. (ru.nl)

A once-daily dual-action tablet, AKEEGA comprises a highly selective poly (ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor, niraparib, and an androgen biosynthesis inhibitor, abiraterone acetate. (pharmaceutical-technology.com)
Selecting initial treatment requires assessing the risk of the disease spreading or progressing, which is based on evaluating the patient's life expectancy, comorbidities, biopsy grade (Gleason score), clinical stage, and prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level. (medscape.com)
Diagnosis is suggested by digital rectal examination or prostate-specific antigen (PSA) measurement and confirmed by transrectal ultrasound biopsy. (msdmanuals.com)

Prostate tumors were initially thought to be rare, with an 1893 report describing just 50 cases in the medical literature. (wikipedia.org)
As surgery became more common, prostate tumors were found in surgical specimens from prostates that had enlarged with age. (wikipedia.org)
In this study, participants with multiple types of advanced (unresectable and/or metastatic) solid tumors who have progressed on standard of care therapy will be treated with pembrolizumab (MK-3475). (msdoncologyclinicaltrials.com)

Apalutamide2
The study reported a statistically significant reduction in the development of metastatic disease or prolongation of time to metastases associated with apalutamide compared with placebo (40.5 months vs 16.2 months, respectively). (medscape.com)
If some of the men being treated did indeed have metastatic disease, we have to consider whether they would benefit best from apalutamide or enzalutamide, or if giving them chemotherapy would be a better approach. (medscape.com)
Bone3
The predominance of patients with metastatic disease in bone has made it difficult to acquire sufficient tissue to perform correlative studies. (cancernetwork.com)
Patients were not eligible to enroll if they had prior radiotherapy for RCC, or brain or bone metastatic lesions. (urologytimes.com)
Perhaps the most significant problem to the study, however, is that we now know that CT scan and bone scan will miss a significant number of metastatic sites that can be identified using a PET scan . (medscape.com)
