Androgen Depletion Produces Declines in PSA and Tumor Shrinkage, Followed by Regrowth as a Castration-Resistant Lesion Castrate “T” < 50 ng/dl 1. As initial treatment: Androgen depletion is not curative. 2. A rising PSA shows the AR is signaling and a transition to a lethal phenotype. Clinical Insights into Castration-Resistant Progression Guiding Drug Development 1. Rising PSA levels are consistent with continued AR signaling. 2. Clinical significance of AR targeting is reinforced by the response to secondary hormone therapies, as well as the “withdrawal”/ “discontinuation” of anti-androgens. 3. This suggests antagonists later functions as an agonist as the disease progresses. 4. The AR ligand binding domain is clinically relevant and contributes to progression.
