Meaningful survival after cabazitaxel in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC): The Spanish experience.

2014 
235 Background: New emerging therapies for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), such as cabazitaxel (CBZ), have prompted the need to identify appropriate patients (pts) for each specific treatment. We describe preliminary data on the experience with CBZ in patients (pts) with mCRPC in Spain. Methods: Medical records from docetaxel-resistant mCRPC pts receiving CBZ at 15 centers in Spain were reviewed retrospectively. Baseline characteristics, PSA response, overall survival (OS), radiographic progression-free survival (rPFS), and toxicity were collected. Results: Data from 79 consecutive pts (median age 70) were reviewed: Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group (ECOG) zero to one (87.3%), Gleason score of 7 to 10 (87.1%), visceral involvement (24.1%), pain (74.7%), and radiological progression (68.4%) at CBZ initiation. Median duration of response to first-line androgen deprivation therapy was 20.8 months (mo). Most pts received less than or equal to two hormonal lines (72.2%) and only one d...
