An analysis of survival in patients with castrate-resistant prostate cancer receiving enzalutamide with treatment breaks

Abstract: Objective: Enzalutamide is effective in treating metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) but can have side effects that require treatment breaks (TB). We conducted a retrospective analysis of outcomes of patients who had extended TB due to toxicity compared to continuous dosing. Methods: Patients prescribed enzalutamide for mCRPC from September 2011 to February 2018 were included. TB was defined as an interruption of four weeks or more. Overall survival (OS) from enzalutamide start, time to prost… Show more

“… 86 Another strategy involving Treatment Breaks (TB) , defined as an interruption of 4 weeks or more, was associated with improved OS (HR = 2.39, 1.53–3.76, p = 0.002), total treatment time (median 15 versus 8 months; p = 0.0001), time to treatment failure (median: 11 versus 6 months; p = 0.008), and dose reductions (41% versus 9%) in a retrospective analysis of 129 mCRPC patients [median age in TB group 78 years (63–88)] who already achieved a PSA response >50% with enzalutamide. 87 Similar results were also reported in a retrospective study of octogenarians with mCRPC ( n = 153) who required more enzalutamide dose reductions ( n = 125) than abiraterone (44.8% versus 22.9%; p > 0.001) without any significant differences in outcomes, including time to progression or OS. 88 …”
