A novel spectrofluorimetric method to determine abiraterone acetate and its active metabolite, abiraterone was developed, based on the fact that fluorescence intensity of abiraterone acetate and abiraterone could be enhanced in β-cyclodextrin (β-CD) due to the formation of the inclusion complex. The inclusion interaction of β-CD and abiraterone acetate and the β-cyclodextrin sensitized spectrofluorimetry was examined. The various factors influencing fluorescence were discussed in details. The results showed that under the optimized conditions, the linear range of calibration curve for the determination of biraterone acetate and abiraterone was 0.20 ~ 6.0 μg/mL, and the detection limit (LOD) was 6.8 (r = 0.997) or 6.6 ng/mL (r = 0.996), respectively. No interference was observed from common co-existing substances or pharmaceutical excipient. The method was successfully applied to the analysis of abiraterone acetate in pharmaceutical formulation and abiraterone in human serum/urine.

A 79-year old Caucasian male with metastatic hormone refractory prostate cancer and bilateral nephrostomy was admitted to the emergency department due to 4-day bloody urethral discharge, weakness and dizziness. The patient was treated with the luteinizing hormone-releasing hormone-antagonist and abiraterone acetate plus prednisone, dabigatran 150 mg bid (for atrial fibrillation and coronary heart disease) and 5-aminosalicylic acid for the management of mild ulcerative colitis. Imaging revealed bladder overdistention and blood analysis low levels of hematocrit (HCT) and hemoglobin (HGB) (HCT, 22%; HGB, 7.

Metastatic prostate cancer remains incurable. Though significant progress has been made in the field, the search for agents that improve outcomes for patients is ongoing. Several clinical trials have explored the benefit of combining PARP inhibitors (PARPi) with androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) for metastatic castrate resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), especially those cancers with alterations in homologous recombination repair (HRR) genes.

Background: Androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (apalutamide [APA], enzalutamide [ENZ], abiraterone acetate plus prednisone [AAP]) combined with androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) are effective life-prolonging treatment options for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). We evaluated the impact of upfront therapy for mHSPC on outcomes in real-world clinical practice in the United States.
Methods: This retrospective, observational cohort study used electronic healthcare records from the ConcertAI RWD 360 Prostate Cancer Dataset.

Background: The androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPI), abiraterone acetate and enzalutamide, are commonly used in first-line treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, early resistance to ARPI treatment occurs frequently. Traditionally, the response is evaluated 3-6 months after the start of treatment.
