Abstract

Addition of docetaxel to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) was recommended for patients with newly diagnosed metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), who are fit enough to receive docetaxel. Two recently published trials showed that the addition of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone to ADT has a clear survival benefit and acceptable overall tolerance, and should be considered as another standard of care for newly diagnosed mHSPC.
