Abstract:
Chemotherapy was traditionally perceived to be ineffective for prostate cancer and was only administered to patients with symptomatic hormone-refractory disease. Although previous reviews have confirmed this belief, recent studies have demonstrated significant antitumor activity with chemotherapy regimens. This article highlights the preliminary results of recent studies involving chemohormonal therapy.
