The last decade has seen remarkable advances in the treatment of prostate cancer.Until 2010,only docetaxel had demonstrated the ability to improve the survival in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).1 While effective,many men were reluctant to get treatment with docetaxel because of the perceived toxicity,thereby further limiting the benefit of the one available and effective therapy.Remarkably,within the last 8 years,the field has seen a multitude of therapies that demonstrate an ability to extend survival for men with prostate cancer.Abiraterone and enzalutamide demonstrated the importance of the androgen axis in propelling prostate cancer growth.2 Sipuleucel-T was immunotherapy\'s entry into the evolving prostate cancer armamentarium,as the therapeutic cancer vaccine established an ability to extend survival despite an apparent lack of short-term effect on progression-free survival and prostate-specific antigen (PSA).4 Radium-223 built on the palliative success of previous radiopharmaceuticals,but this alpha-emitting agent importantly had limited hematologic-related toxicity and was associated with a survival advantage,unlike its in-class predecessors5 Cabazitaxel also emerged as a second-line chemotherapy option in patients who had already progressed on docetaxel.
