Purpose: To evaluate the influence of nadir prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level and time to PSA nadir following androgen deprivation therapy (ADT)on disease progression of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) in patients with metastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Patients and methods: A total of 90 patients with metastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer treated with androgen deprivation therapy in our hospital were included in our retrospective study. Patients’ characteristics, PSA at PADT initiation (initial PSA), PSA nadir, TTN, follow up time, CRPC event were analyzed using Kaplan-Meier analysis and Cox regression model. Results: At a median follow-up of 12 months, 57 patients (63.3%) showed disease progression of CRPC Both PSA nadir and time to PSA nadir (TTN) was independent and significant predictors of CRPC event. Patients with higher PSA nadir (≥0.2ng/dL) and shorter time to PSA nadir (TTN <6 months) had significant shorter time to CRPC. Meanwhile, the Gleason score, age and initial PSA werenot significant predictors of disease progression. In the combined analyses showed patients with higher of PSA nadir and shorter TTN had significantly higher risk for CRPC event compared to lower PSA nadir and longer TTN (HR 69.243, p-value< 0.001) Conclusion: We concluded that both higher PSA nadir and shorter time to PSA nadir are significant predictors of CRPC in patients with metastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer receiving ADT.

The Impact

241 Background: It is unknown whether the nadir prostate-specific antigen level (PSA nadir) and time to nadir (TTN) during initial androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) are prognostic factors in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) patients. Methods: We reviewed the Michinoku Urological Cancer Study Group database, including 321 mCRPC patients. Optimal cutoff values for PSA nadir and TTN on survival were calculated with the receiver operating characteristic (ROC) curve. Patients were stratified into unfavorable (higher PSA nadir and/or shorter TTN) and favorable (lower PSA nadir and longer TTN) groups. The inversed probability of treatment weighing (IPTW) adjusted Cox proportional hazard model was performed to evaluate the impact of the unfavorable group on overall survival (OS) after CRPC diagnosis. Results: Median age and follow-up period were 71 years and 35 months, respectively. ROC curve analysis demonstrated cutoffs of PSA nadir >0.64 ng/mL and TTN <7 months. The unfavorable group included 248 patients who had significantly shorter OS after mCRPC and CRPC-free survival. The Cox proportional and IPTW-adjusted multivariate analyses revealed that the unfavorable group had a negative impact on OS in mCRPC patients (hazards ratio [HR] 2.98, P < 0.001). Conclusions: Higher PSA nadir and shorter TTN during the initial ADT are poor prognostic factors in patients with mCRPC.[Table: see text]

Abstract Aim The aim was to evaluate the efficacy and safety of abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone in patients with chemotherapy-naïve early metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who failed first-line androgen deprivation therapy. Methods Patients with early metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with confirmed prostate-specific antigen progression within 1-year or prostate-specific antigen progression without having normal prostate-specific antigen level (&lt;4.0 ng/mL) during first-line androgen deprivation therapy were enrolled and administered abiraterone acetate (1000 mg) plus prednisolone (10 mg). A minimum of 48 patients were required according to Simon’s minimax design. The primary endpoint was prostate-specific antigen response rate (≥50% prostate-specific antigen decline by 12 weeks), secondary endpoints included prostate-specific antigen progression-free survival and overall survival. Safety parameters were also assessed. Results For efficacy, 49/50 patients were evaluable. Median age was 73 (range: 55–86) years. The median duration of initial androgen deprivation therapy was 32.4 (range: 13.4–84.1) weeks and 48 patients experienced prostate-specific antigen progression within 1-year after initiation of androgen deprivation therapy. prostate-specific antigen response rate was 55.1% (95% confidence interval: 40.2%–69.3%), median prostate-specific antigen–progression-free survival was 24.1 weeks, and median overall survival was 102.9 weeks (95% confidence interval: 64.86 not estimable [NE]). Most common adverse event was nasopharyngitis (15/50 patients, 30.0%). The most common ≥grade 3 adverse event was alanine aminotransferase increased (6/50 patients, 12.0%). Conclusions Abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone demonstrated a high prostate-specific antigen response rate of 55.1%, suggesting tumor growth still depends on androgen synthesis in patients with early metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. However, prostate-specific antigen–progression-free survival was shorter than that reported in previous studies. Considering the benefit–risk profile, abiraterone acetate plus prednisolone would be a beneficial treatment option for patients with chemotherapy-naive metastatic prostate cancer who show early castration resistance.

Background. The present study aimed to analyse factors influencing the effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with newly diagnosed metastatic castration-naïve prostate cancer (mCNPC), especially in low-volume disease (LVD), according to subclassification of metastatic prostate cancer established by the CHAARTED trial. Materials and Methods. We reviewed 648 patients with newly diagnosed mCNPC receiving ADT at Chang Gung Memorial Hospital from January 2007 to December 2016. Basic characteristics and PSA kinetics profile were subsequently evaluated. Results. 48.3% of LVD patients progressed to castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Among them, CRPC group had significantly shorter time to PSA nadir (TTN) and faster time from PSA nadir to CRPC (TFNTC) ( p  < 0.001) compared to non-CRPC group. PSA doubling time (PSADT) < 4 months tended to be associated with faster disease progression and shorter overall survival (OS). Among all patients with metastatic prostate cancer, those with shorter TTN <9 months, higher nadir PSA level ≥1 ng/mL, and shorter PSADT <3 months had increased tendency for biochemical progression. Conclusions. PSADT is an effective clinical predictor for disease progression and survival in LVD. Other PSA kinetics including TTN and TFNTC, though not the major predictors for disease progression or OS in LVD, might be the predictors for disease control status.
