For decades, hormone sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) was largely ignored while clinicians waited for it to develop into castration-resistant metastatic disease (mCRPC). Until recently, there were no treatment options that showed significant survival benefit for HSPC and so progression to mCRPC was seen as almost inevitable; however, since 2015, effective treatment strategies have emerged as the new standard of care for HSPC. It is now thought that intervening earlier with these combinations—particularly with second-generation androgen receptor inhibitors—could reduce disease burden. This program will focus on metastatic HSPC (mHSPC).
