Optimizing Treatment Intensification in Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer: Evidence-Based Decisions for Complex Patients
Panelists discuss the evolving management of metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer, with a focus on how patient complexity, long-term survivorship, and emerging evidence are shaping treatment intensification strategies. They explore practical considerations that inform selection of androgen receptor pathway inhibitors, review data from both clinical trials and real-world studies, and share perspectives on optimizing tolerability and quality of life in everyday practice.

Optimizing Treatment Intensification in Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer: Evidence-Based Decisions for Complex Patients
The discussion introduces how the treatment landscape for metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer has evolved, highlighting that patients are now living longer with metastatic disease and often have multiple comorbidities, making long-term tolerability and quality of life key considerations in treatment planning.
This discussion explores how the rising burden of comorbidities and polypharmacy in patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer requires clinicians to carefully balance therapy intensification with overall health status, medication interactions, and long-term safety when developing individualized treatment plans.
Explore how comorbidities and polypharmacy shape treatment choices in metastatic prostate cancer, guiding safe therapy intensification with multidisciplinary care.
Clinical trials show adding upfront therapies to ADT for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer boosts survival and quality of life, making ADT alone outdated.
Experts highlight cognitive decline and fall risk in older prostate cancer patients on ADT/ARPI, urging tailored drug selection and simple in-clinic screening.
