Popis: The development of castration resistance is an inevitable pathway for the vast majority of patients with advanced prostate cancer. Recently, there have been significant breakthroughs in the understanding and management options of castration-resistant prostate cancer. Three novel hormonal agents showed survival benefits in non-metastatic patients. As for metastatic disease, there was an even wider range of management options being investigated. This review summarized advances in the management of castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) including emerging data on novel imaging techniques and treatment strategies.
