Quality of life in patients with advanced prostate cancer after apalutamide treatment
This study analyzed the health-related quality of life (HRQOL) in patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (MCSPC) after treatment with apalutamide (Erleada) and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). The study found that apalutamide plus ADT was well tolerated and improved survival compared to ADT alone in these patients.

Abiraterone acetate and prednisone in patients with metastatic, castration‑sensitive prostate cancer
This study evaluated if the benefit of adding abiraterone acetate (Zytiga) + prednisone (Deltasone) to androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) in treating metastatic, castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) would be maintained in patients treated with ADT alone. This study concluded that this treatment improved patients’ survival in these patients.
