About

At present, there is still controversy over the treatment of metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Major guidelines and consensus suggest that novel hormone therapy (NHT) should be used as the basic treatment for mHSPC, and metastasis directed therapy can be combined depending on the clinical situation. However, it is still unclear how to develop more specific and individualized treatment plans for mHSPC patients. On the other hand, prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) which is highly specifically expressed in prostate epithelial cells has been widely used as a PET/CT target for the diagnosis and staging of prostate cancer. However, there is still a lack of clinical evidence on how to use it to guide the treatment of prostate cancer. Therefore, this study intends to include patients diagnosed with mHSPC by PSMA PET/CT. After 6 months of NHT, PSMA PET/CT will be re-evaluated and patients with remaining active lesions on PSMA PET/CT will be included for randomization. The aim of this study is to explore the effect of NHT combined with local treatment on delaying disease progression and prolonging survival in patients with active lesions on PSMA PET/CT after NHT, providing new insights into the treatment of mHSCP patients.
