摘要

Prostate cancer is perceived to be a disease of older men often diagnosed with widespread metastases that respond to hormonal ablation but for which there are few additional treatment options. Fortunately this perception is rapidly changing as newer combination chemotherapy trials demonstrate improved prostate-specific antigen and measurable response rates and enhanced quality of life. Still, treatment of prostate cancer lags behind treatment of other malignancies. Work remains in understanding the natural history of disease, refining our grouping of patients by stage into clinical trials, and adhering to new response criteria recently developed. Applying the newer active chemotherapy regimens to patients with earlier stage disease should lead to improvements in overall survival.
