Management of Metastatic Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer

William K. Oh, MD

June 26, 2020

For decades, standard care of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) has relied on androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). Since 2015, a series of randomized trials has demonstrated significant improvements in survival. Four drugs are currently approved to treat mHSPC: docetaxel, abiraterone acetate, enzalutamide, and apalutamide.

Dr William K. Oh, chief of the Department of Hematology-Oncology at the Tisch Cancer Institute of Mount Sinai Health System, reviews current recommendations for the treatment of mHSPC on the basis of a patient's clinical factors, medication side effects, and disease volume.
