Abstract
The standard treatment for patients with castration-refractory prostate cancer (CRPC) is the combination docetaxel-prednisone, if the patient can support chemotherapy. Several new treatments have been tested in chemotherapy-naïve or docetaxel-pretreated patients with CRPC. Some of these treatments have shown activity in first-line and second-line treatment. In this review, an update is given of new treatment studies performed in patients with CRPC.Entities:
