    Abstract For decades, mathematical models have influenced how we schedule chemotherapeutics. More recently, mathematical models have leveraged lessons from ecology, evolution, and game theory to advance predictions of optimal treatment schedules, often in a personalized medicine manner. We discuss both established and emerging therapeutic strategies that deviate from canonical standard-of-care regimens, and how mathematical models have contributed to the design of such schedules. We first examine scheduling options for single therapies and review the advantages and disadvantages of various treatment plans. We then consider the challenge of scheduling multiple therapies, and review the mathematical and clinical support for various conflicting treatment schedules. Finally, we propose how a consilience of mathematical and clinical knowledge can best determine the optimal treatment schedules for patients.

    Abstract Abiraterone acetate plus prednisone is a standard treatment option for mCRPC. The phase II SWITCH trial showed that further prostate-specific antigen (PSA) responses can be obtained in a subset of patients when prednisone was switched to dexamethasone at progression. Here, we discuss the potential underlying mechanisms, including the activation of glucocorticoid receptors (GR) in progressive mCRPC and the implications for clinical practice.

    Abstract Developing systemic therapies for advanced prostate cancer has significant challenges, including the difficulty of assessing baseline disease status, disease heterogeneity, and the lack of standards for assessing treatment effects that reliably reflect clinical benefit. To address these issues, the Prostate Cancer Working Group (PCWG2) took three actions. First, the Group incorporated a prostate cancer clinical states model framework for patient management and drug development. Second was establishing a two-objective paradigm in which trials are designed to evaluate a drug's ability to either (a) control, relieve, or eliminate present disease manifestations or (b) prevent or delay future disease manifestations. Third was the development of consensus criteria for eligibility, outcomes, and reporting in prostate cancer clinical trials. Now that the molecular interrogation of prostate cancer has led to a more complex understanding of disease biology, drug development has transitioned from evaluating cytotoxic agents with activity in multiple tumor types to the rational development of therapies targeting different aspects of the malignant process. In addition, the current availability of multiple therapies for advanced prostate cancer that prolong life brings a new mandate: that we define, validate, and qualify predictive biomarkers of sensitivity to guide treatment selection and establish endpoints short of survival that can lead to drug approval. Optimization of outcomes in future trials will require revised guidance on how to align clinically relevant objectives and eligibility with an evolving disease framework.

    Abstract Introduction: Five new agents have been shown to prolong survival in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, including two targeting androgen receptor signaling (abiraterone acetate plus prednisone; enzalutamide). Recognition that these tumors remain driven by androgen receptor signaling has prompted clinical evaluation of these agents at earlier states in the prostate cancer disease continuum, along with the continued development of new agents targeting this pathway. Areas covered: This article focuses on apalutamide, a next-generation nonsteroidal antiandrogen, with current literature queried in PubMed/Medline. A narrative review strategy describes studies from engineering of the compound through to a 5-year outlook. Expert commentary: In the phase III SPARTAN study, apalutamide significantly improved metastasis-free survival in patients with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer - the first treatment approved by the US Food and Drug Administration for this indication. Phase III studies are under way to determine the clinical benefit of apalutamide in other disease states. Given the multiplicity of prostate cancer treatment options now available, there is a need to maximize individual patient benefit through the development and validation of predictive biomarkers of sensitivity to drugs that can be used in real time to determine the optimal sequence and combinations of treatments for patients in need.
