Activity of Platinum-Based Chemotherapy in Patients With Advanced Prostate Cancer With and Without DNA Repair Gene Aberrations

Key Points Question Is there a role for platinum-based treatment in molecularly selected patients with advanced prostate cancer? Findings In a case series of 508 patients, platinum-based therapy was associated with antitumor activity, especially among patients with known DNA repair gene aberrations. In patients with DNA repair gene aberrations, nearly half had a decrease in prostate-specific antigen levels of at least 50% and experienced soft tissue responses. Meaning In patients with prostate cancer and DNA repair gene aberrations, platinum-based therapy may be considered a treatment option.
