Admin Posted August 1, 2011 Share Posted August 1, 2011 Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer remains androgen-driven 06/05/2011 0 Comments The success of the recent trials with Zytiga don't just give hope in themselves. They do show what many have suspected, but has not been proven until now: "metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer remains androgen-driven" If you missed the latest report: "active treatment [jm] was found to reduce the risk of death by 35%, compared with placebo. Mortality was 42% with active treatment, compared with 55% with placebo. Median overall survival was 14.8 months with abiraterone, compared with 10.9 months with placebo" I am not a doctor.
