The successful registration of several drugs for castration-resistant prostate cancer and the recent studies of chemo-hormonal therapy in men with castration-naïve prostate cancer have led to considerable uncertainty as to the best treatment choices, sequence of treatment options and appropriate patient selection. Management recommendations based on expert opinion, and not based on a critical review of the available evidence, are presented. The various recommendations carried differing degrees of support, as reflected in the wording of the article text and in the detailed voting results recorded in <ext-link ext-link-type="uri" xlink:href="http://annonc.oxfordjournals.org/lookup/suppl/doi:10.1093/annonc/mdv257/-/DC1">supplementary Material, available at <italic>Annals of Oncology</italic> online</ext-link>. Detailed decisions on treatment as always will involve consideration of disease extent and location, prior treatments, host factors, patient preferences as well as logistical and economic constraints. Inclusion of men with APC in clinical trials should be encouraged.</p></abstract><kwd-group><kwd>advanced prostate cancer</kwd><kwd>castration-resistant prostate cancer</kwd><kwd>therapeutics</kwd><kwd>consensus</kwd><kwd>castration-naïve prostate cancer</kwd></kwd-group><funding-group><award-group id="funding-1"><funding-source>Cantonal Hospital St Gallen</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-2"><funding-source>City and Canton of St Gallen</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-3"><funding-source>Swiss Cancer Research Organisation</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-4"><funding-source>European School of Oncology (ESO)</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-5"><funding-source>Swiss Cancer League</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-6"><funding-source>Swiss Oncology Research Network SAKK</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-7"><funding-source>Swiss Cancer Foundation</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-8"><funding-source>Prostate Cancer Foundation <named-content content-type="funder-id">http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/100000892</named-content></funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-9"><funding-source>Günter and Regine Kelm Foundation</funding-source></award-group><award-group id="funding-10"><funding-source>Movember Foundation <named-content content-type="funder-id">http://dx.doi.org/10.13039/100008719</named-content></funding-source></award-group></funding-group></article-meta></front><body><sec sec-type="intro" id="mdv257_s1"><title>introduction</title><p>The diagnostic and therapeutic management of men with advanced prostate cancer (APC) has been transformed in recent years. Several new treatments for men with castration-resistant disease have successfully completed phase III trials and have received regulatory approval. The trials have not only shown a significant prolongation of overall survival, but they also reported improved or preserved quality of life (QoL). The latter, however, was less rigorously assessed and documented. Importantly, the currently approved survival-prolonging treatments in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) have distinct mechanisms of action. These therapies include unique classes of agents: taxanes, docetaxel and cabazitaxel, an immunotherapeutic agent, sipuleucel-T, novel androgen receptor (AR) pathway inhibitors abiraterone acetate (abiraterone) and enzalutamide as well as a bone targeting alpha-emitting radionuclide, radium-223 chloride (radium-223) [<xref rid="MDV257C1" ref-type="bibr">1</xref>–<xref rid="MDV257C7" ref-type="bibr">7</xref>].</p><p>Large-scale, prospective randomised trials testing the optimal sequencing of these treatments have not yet been reported. Furthermore, predictive markers to facilitate the selection of patients for a specific therapy or sequence of therapies remain an unmet need. The latter is especially relevant given the increasing evidence that some castration-resistant phenotypes may be more responsive to hormonal strategies, others to cytotoxics and others to biologic approaches. Effective combination therapies may improve outcomes and are under investigation. In addition, trials examining newer agents in the castration-naïve setting are now beginning to emerge, potentially supporting the upfront use of agents such as docetaxel. While addressing one aspect of the sequencing debate, such upfront use clearly then raises a whole raft of new questions about management on development of CRPC.</p><p>Novel imaging methods for evaluation of patient selection and response claiming increased sensitivity and specificity have not been adequately tested in prospective clinical trials.</p><p>In the absence of evidence, the selection of treatment is based on clinical judgement that includes the experience of the treating physician with the available agents, the status of the disease, when the patient is presenting for treatment, and potential comorbid conditions that might preclude a particular treatment. All treatments can have side-effects, and all of the new treatments are expensive. Of note, global access to the above-mentioned CRPC therapeutics varies across the globe, and the financial burden to an individual patient, but also to the community, must be factored.</p><p>Zoledronic acid and denosumab are approved to reduce the risk of skeletal-related events (SREs) based on the results of phase III trials in men with metastatic CRPC [<xref rid="MDV257C8" ref-type="bibr">8</xref>–<xref rid="MDV257C10" ref-type="bibr">10</xref>]. Most were approved before the availability of therapies beyond taxanes. The optimal use of these osteoclast-targeted therapies (including sequencing, initiation, frequency and duration of treatment) has not been determined. Moreover, their roles, and in particular their efficacy, in the era of newly approved anticancer-treatment options for men with CRPC [many of which also reduce the risk of SREs or symptomatic skeletal-related events (SSEs)] have not been determined. Studies to address these critical knowledge gaps need to be undertaken.</p><p>Physicians may rely on national and international guidelines to base management decisions outside of clinical trials. The level of evidence on which a specific guideline is based varies considerably. Nonetheless, there still remain several topics regarding management decisions where there is either a paucity of level one evidence or conflicting evidence of results. To address this, an international expert consensus, the St Gallen Advanced Prostate Cancer Consensus Conference (APCCC), was organised with the objective of providing the recommendations of experts to complement evidence-based guidelines and to better frame the discussion between men with prostate cancer and physicians when faced with management decisions.</p><p>Importantly, several of these recommendations were derived from clinical trial data that have been obtained from trials with specific entry criteria. These criteria will differ from trial to trial. Hence, not all recommendations can be generalised and applied uncritically to every patient, rather they should be tailored to an individual and shared decision making is still required.</p></sec><sec sec-type="methods" id="mdv257_s2"><title>methods</title><p>The panel included 41 prostate cancer experts from 17 countries, covering different specialties involved in research and treatment of men with APC (Table <xref ref-type="table" rid="MDV257TB1">1</xref>).

After the third round, only important changes were accepted for the fourth and final version of the questions. This process was analogous to the one used for the St Gallen International Expert Consensus on the Primary Therapy of Early Breast Cancer [<xref rid="MDV257C12" ref-type="bibr">12</xref>]. The conference included presentations and debates from participants (primarily from panellists) who reviewed evidence relevant to the above questions. On the last day of the conference, all questions were presented with options for answers in a multiple-choice format. The questions were voted on publicly but anonymously. In some cases, discussions and re-voting occurred.

Another open question is sequencing of therapies and specifically the use of abiraterone or enzalutamide after progression on the other one of them after initial response.</p><p>An important unmet medical need is the assessment of value of the newer imaging modalities in early diagnosis and treatment monitoring and their impact on patient outcome. The variability of cost and availability of these imaging modalities throughout the world are also an issue. Prospective multicentric translational studies embedding these newer modalities are needed to confirm the ability of these techniques to do better than bone scintigraphy and CT in terms of disease detection, demonstration of recurrence and to provide an earlier, more refined approach of response evaluation and defining the optimal timing to switch treatment or type of treatment. Importantly, they need to be assessed in terms of their impact on QoL measures and survival, although the latter is likely to be more challenging given the availability of multiple survival-prolonging treatments.</p><p>Furthermore, new ‘registration’ end points are needed in the light of several drugs that have been shown to prolong median OS.</p><p>Another area of uncertainty is the ‘best use’ of osteoclast-targeted agents in men with CRPC concerning initiation, dose, frequency and duration. It is also unclear if, in the time of potent new therapies, the effect of these agents is redundant or additive, and that may depend on the new therapy used. The management of men with oligometastatic disease is another area where trial data are lacking and no consensus could be achieved, which makes it an important research question. More data are necessary to address the above topics where consensus is lacking, and this conference pointed to clinical issues where physicians make decisions without certainty of benefit. If the gaps in knowledge are not filled with informative rigorous data, future regulators and payers may decide how a patient will be treated.</p><p>We did not capture differences in the opinion of panel members by geographic region, access to drugs or imaging or by different patient ethnic groups or cultures. This will be considered at the next meeting.</p><p>Additional important questions remain that have not been addressed in this meeting such as costs and cost-effectiveness of drugs, drug accessibility, ideal clinical settings, health economic issues, patient-reported QoL outcomes, implementation of precision medicine strategies in clinical practice as well as combination strategies.</p><p>The panel predicts that by the next APCCC in 2017 some of the unanswered questions will be better understood or hopefully clarified by emerging data. Additional questions will then be addressed to provide further recommendations useful for daily clinical practice: in particular selecting the right treatment, for the right patient and at the right time.</p></sec><sec id="mdv257_s4"><title>funding</title><p>We gratefully acknowledge the financial support of the following non-profit organisations for the Advanced Prostate Cancer Consensus Conference (APCCC): <funding-source>Cantonal Hospital St Gallen</funding-source>, <funding-source>City and Canton of St Gallen</funding-source>, <funding-source>Swiss Cancer Research Organisation</funding-source>, <funding-source>European School of Oncology (ESO)</funding-source>, <funding-source>Swiss Cancer League</funding-source>, the <funding-source>Swiss Oncology Research Network SAKK</funding-source>, <funding-source>Swiss Cancer Foundation</funding-source>, <funding-source>Prostate Cancer Foundation</funding-source> (PCF) and the <funding-source>Günter and Regine Kelm Foundation</funding-source>.
