PURPOSE In patients treated with radical prostatectomy who have biochemical recurrence we have previously reported that time from surgery to biochemical recurrence and postoperative prostate specific antigen doubling time are significantly related to the risk of prostate cancer death. We performed a more thorough examination of the association of time from surgery to biochemical recurrence and ...

We report a case of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, who received prior treatment with docetaxel and was then given cabazitaxel as salvage therapy. The patient was monitored by prostate-specific antigen doubling time and prostate-specific antigen absolute value. The prostate-specific antigen doubling time was found to be a good response predictor in the patient.
