The role of carboplatin in combination with paclitaxel in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer
Original language description
Plain language summaryThe prognosis of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) refractory to docetaxel is poor, with only limited guidance on the optimal treatment strategy. We reviewed patients with mCRPC treated with weekly carboplatin/paclitaxel in a single institution, analyzing their prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response, progression-free survival, treatment duration and overall survival (OS). Potential predictive biomarkers and tolerability were evaluated. 43 patients treated between 2012 and 2020 were identified, including 40 refractory to docetaxel. 19 (44%) had received two prior chemotherapy regimens and 38 (88%) were pretreated with androgen receptor-targeted agents; 18 patients (42%) had bone-only disease and 16 (37%) had visceral disease. Median number of cycles was ten (range: 1 to 23), PSA response (>50% decline) was observed in 18 patients (42%), median progression-free survival was 115 days and median OS was 8.36 months. 11 patients (26%) experienced reversible grade 3 or 4 toxicity, two (5%) had febrile neutropenia, and no lethal adverse events were observed. The prognostic role for OS was confirmed for PSA response, higher line of therapy, pretreatment with enzalutamide, longer response to androgen-deprivation therapy and response to docetaxel. In conclusion, combination chemotherapy with carboplatin/paclitaxel is a viable, effective and well-tolerated therapy in heavily pretreated patients with mCRPC, but should be validated in a prospective trial.Background: The aim of the present study was to examine the efficacy of carboplatin in combination with paclitaxel in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer pretreated with multiple regimens including docetaxel and androgen receptor-targeted agents. Methods: Clinical data from patients treated with carboplatin plus paclitaxel were collected retrospectively from a single institution. Results: 43 patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer were identified. Median number of cycles was ten (range: 1 to 23), prostate-specific antigen response was observed in 18 (42%) patients, median progression-free survival was 115 days and median overall survival was 8.1 months. Conclusion: Combination chemotherapy using taxane with carboplatin is an effective and well-tolerated therapy in heavily pretreated patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.
