Clinical Pearls:

  • Agents such as enzalutamide, abiraterone, and radium-223, are now FDA-approved and proven to improve survival
  • Physicians sequence these agents based on approval parameters from the FDA, but this may not be the best way
  • Physicians need to understand more about the biology and cross-resistance patterns of these agents and how to integrate rational combinations with limited toxicities in order to improve sequencing techniques
