چکیده
Introduction Transient decrease in serum prostate-specific antigen level can occur after abiraterone acetate withdrawal male patient with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. Here, we report a case of syndrome transient progression to disease while using upfront therapy for high-risk Case presentation A 73-year-old man hormone-sensitive cancer multiple bone metastases (prostate-specific level, 294.109 ng/mL) received abiraterone/prednisolone combination and androgen deprivation therapy. One year later, decreased 0.017 ng/mL (nadir) but it gradually rose by 15 months treatment initiation. He was diagnosed as new appeared. After discontinued, stabilized at low 5 months. Conclusion Abiraterone observed when progressed

Abiraterone Acetate Withdrawal Syndrome: Does It Exist?
In 2011 abiraterone acetate (AA) was approved for the treatment of castrate-resistant metastatic prostate cancer patients who have failed docetaxel chemotherapy. We report the case of a patient who experienced a confirmed PSA decrease of ≤50% after stopping AA, mimicking an antiandrogen withdrawal syndrome.
متن کاملAbiraterone acetate: redefining hormone treatment for advanced prostate cancer.
Prostate cancer has long since been recognised as being hormonally driven via androgen receptor signalling. Abiraterone acetate (AA) is a rationally designed CYP17 inhibitor that blocks the conversion of androgens from non-gonadal precursors effectively, thus reducing testosterone to undetectable levels. AA has recently been proved to extend survival for men with metastatic castration-resistant...
متن کاملAbiraterone acetate for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer post-docetaxel
Abiraterone acetate (AA) 1000-mg daily, a selective irreversible androgen biosynthesis inhibitor of cytochrome P450 c17 (CYP17) enzyme, is used in combination with prednisone 10-mg daily to treat docetaxel-treated patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Several studies have demonstrated the safety and efficacy of this compound in men with mCRPC. Interim results fr...
متن کاملAbiraterone acetate: in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Oral abiraterone acetate, in combination with prednisone/prednisolone, is used to treat patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) who have previously received docetaxel-containing chemotherapy. Abiraterone acetate was developed to specifically inhibit cytochrome P450 (CYP)17A1, which is an essential enzyme in the biosynthesis of testosterone. In a pivotal phase III tr...
متن کاملAbiraterone Boosts Prostate Cancer Survival
Final results of a phase III trial confirm that treatment with abiraterone prolongs overall survival (OS) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) that has progressed after docetaxel therapy. Over a median 20 month follow-up, median OS was 15.8 months for abiraterone (Zytiga®) plus prednisone compared with 11.2 months for placebo plus the steroid (P<0.0001), Karim Fizazi, MD, ...
