Abstract

Hormonal therapy that lowering serum testosterone levels is an essential treatment for patients with advanced prostate cancer. STAMPEDE, CHAARTED and LATITUDE studies showed that early addition of docetaxel or abiraterone for hormonal treatment significantly prolongs survival of the patients compared to those in whom the treatment was introduced at the time of progression of the neoplastic disease.
