PSA Absolute Value Versus PSA Response Rate: Which Is More Valuable for Estimating Survival Outcomes With ARPI Treatment for Metastatic Hormone‐Sensitive Prostate Cancer (mHSPC) in Real‐World Analyses?

Both the absolute value of PSA and the PSA response rate at 3 months after the initiation of ARPI can estimate survival outcomes. However, the PSA response rate is a more valuable surrogate marker for assessing treatment efficacy than the absolute PSA value. This is because the baseline clinical factors differ significantly among cohorts categorized by absolute PSA values, allowing for better predictions of survival outcomes at the start of treatment. Findings of this study could aid in decision-making following the initiation of doublet ARPI therapy within a short timeframe. Further studies are needed to validate our results.

Abstract

Both the absolute value of PSA and the PSA response rate at 3 months after the initiation of ARPI can estimate survival outcomes. However, the PSA response rate is a more valuable surrogate marker for assessing treatment efficacy than the absolute PSA value. This is because the baseline clinical factors differ significantly among cohorts categorized by absolute PSA values, allowing for better predictions of survival outcomes at the start of treatment. Findings of this study could aid in decision-making following the initiation of doublet ARPI therapy within a short timeframe. Further studies are needed to validate our results.
