We performed a retrospective analysis of 15 OM-CRPC patients who underwent PSDT and subsequently received first-line ARAT drugs (PSDT group) and 13 OM-CRPC patients who were treated with first-line ARAT drugs without PSDT (non-PSDT group). PSDT was performed with the intention of treating all progressing sites detected by whole-body diffusion-weighted MRI with radiotherapy. Thirteen patients (86.7%) treated with PSDT had a decrease in PSA levels, which was at least 50% in 10 (66.7%) patients. The median PSA progression-free survival (PFS) for PSDT was 7.4 months. The median PSA-PFS for ARAT was 27.2 months in patients in the PSDT group and 11.7 months in the non-PSDT group, with a significant difference between the two groups (hazard ratio [HR], 0.28; p = 0.010). The median OS was not reached in the PSDT group and was significantly longer than 44.5 months in the non-PSDT group (HR, 0.11; p = 0.014). In OM-CRPC, PSDT may improve the efficacy of subsequent ARAT and OS.Cancers567https://www.ebi.ac.uk/biostudies/studies/S-EPMC8833545biostudies-literatureImpact of Progressive Site-Directed Therapy in Oligometastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer on Subsequent Treatment Response.PMC8833545Toda KYoshimura RTanaka HMatsuoka YArita YYoshida SFujii YYokoyama MTakahara TKimura KfalseImpact of Progressive Site-Directed Therapy in Oligometastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer on Subsequent Treatment Response.The purpose of this study was to evaluate the impact of progressive site-directed therapy (PSDT) for oligometastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (OM-CRPC) on the efficacy of subsequent androgen receptor axis-targeted (ARAT) drugs, and to demonstrate the possibility of prolonging overall survival (OS).
