The combination of ADT with apalutamide, enzalutamide, and darolutamide has shown significant clinical benefits for the treatment of nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC), including improved overall survival (OS). Therefore, these approaches are now considered standard of care and included in treatment guidelines for nmCRPC patients.
The treatment for nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) is a highly unmet medical need. The classic treatment approach for these patients-androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) alone-until metastatic progression is now considered suboptimal. Several randomized phase III clinical trials have demonstrated significant clinical benefits-including significantly better overall survival (OS)-for treatments that combine ADT with apalutamide, enzalutamide, and darolutamide. As a result, these approaches are now included in treatment guidelines and are considered a standard of care. In the present article, we discuss the changing landscape of the management of patients with nmCRPC.
