Ultralow Prostate-Specific Antigen (PSA) Levels and Improved Oncological Outcomes in Metastatic Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mHSPC) Patients Treated with Apalutamide: A Real-World Multicentre Study.

Androgen receptor-targeted agents have significantly improved the prognosis of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels are key prognostic markers, with rapid and deep reductions associated with better outcomes. This study aims to assess the association between the new PSA cut-offs and survival in mHSPC patients treated with Apalutamide.

Real-world prostate-specific antigen reduction and survival outcomes of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer patients treated with apalutamide: An observational, retrospective, and multicentre study.

Background: Metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) treatment has changed drastically during the last years with the emergence of androgen receptor-targeted agents (ARTAs). ARTA combined with androgen deprivation therapy has demonstrated better oncological and survival outcomes in these patients. However, the optimal choice among different ARTAs remains uncertain due to their analogous efficacy.
