Changes in Metastatic Castration Sensitive Prostate Cancer
Journal Title: The Bulletin of Urooncology - Year 2021, Vol 20, Issue 1
Abstract
Prostate cancer is the second most common cancer in men worldwide, with approximately 1,276,106 new patients and 358,989 new deaths. Metastatic castrationsensitive prostate cancer may be de novo metastatic, but also it may be in the localized disease stage at the time of diagnosis, and may present as biochemical relapse and later metastatic disease over time. Purposes of metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer treatment are prolonging survival, improving quality of life and reducing complications. In this review, it is aimed to evaluate the current developments in metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer treatment.
