Abstract

Neoadjuvant therapy with abiraterone acetate + prednisone (AAP) + luteinising hormone-releasing hormone agonist (LHRHa) induced significant cytoreduction associated with a lack of recurrence versus LHRHa, though staging did not differ significantly. This first randomised AAP study in localised high-risk prostate cancer explores response heterogeneity and associated molecular effects to guide further research.
