Abiraterone 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 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 and Castration Resistant Ductal Adenocarcinoma of the Prostate
Ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate is a rare histological variant that only represents <1% of prostate tumors. This histological variant has several important clinical implications with respect to their evolution, clinical prognosis, and treatment. We report the case of a 64-year-old patient with ductal adenocarcinoma of the prostate, which progresses to castration-resistant prostate cancer,...
متن کاملClinical activity of abiraterone acetate in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer progressing after enzalutamide.
BACKGROUND Abiraterone acetate and enzalutamide both improve outcomes in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Optimal sequencing for these agents and whether cross-resistance occurs is unknown. METHODS Multicentre review of patients with mCRPC treated with abiraterone acetate and prednisone after progressing on enzalutamide. Primary objective was to determine...
متن کاملFeasibility of abiraterone acetate treatment in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer and atrial fibrillation
BACKGROUND Abiraterone acetate (AA), a selective inhibitor of the CYP17 enzyme, demonstrated a significant improvement in the treatment of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The risk of endocrine side effects, mainly an increased adrenal mineralocorticoid production, could limit its use in patients with atrial fibrillation. METHODS We retrospectively reviewed the c...
