NEXT GENERATION

Non-Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Section Editor: R. Jonathan Henderson, MD

The latest prostate cancer research is turning its focus on the M0 space. M0 prostate cancer is a stage where the disease is non-metastatic but has become resistant to hormone therapy. Many therapeutic options for castration-resistant prostate cancer are approved and used for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), but fewer options exist for those with non-metastatic (NM) CRPC.
