Management of Advanced Prostate Cancer

Abstract

Most of prostate cancers diagnosed at localized disease were regarded as less aggressive malignancy because of their indolent course; nonetheless, metastatic prostate cancer is still lethal. The 5-year survival rate approaches 100% for patients within localized disease, but it declined to 28% for metastatic disease [1]. About 4% of prostate cancer present metastasis on initial diagnosis, and about one-third of localized prostate cancer patients experience disease progression [2, 3].
