摘要

Purpose

Treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) includes chemotherapy and inhibition of the androgen receptor pathway. However, the optimal treatment sequence in this scenario is not yet fully understood. Therefore, we conducted a systematic review and meta-analysis comparing cabazitaxel versus abiraterone or enzalutamide for efficacy and safety outcomes as second-line therapy in mCRPC patients after docetaxel failure.

Methods

We searched PubMed, Embase, and Cochrane databases for interventional studies comparing cabazitaxel versus abiraterone or enzalutamide for patients with mCRPC who have experienced treatment failure with docetaxel as their first-line therapy. We computed hazard ratios (HRs) or odds ratios (ORs) with 95% confidence intervals (CIs).

Results

Eight studies, comprising 1,897 patients were included, of whom 548 (28.8%) received cabazitaxel. Mean follow-up time ranged from 3 to 16.4 months. Median age ranged from 68.1 to 73.9 years in the cabazitaxel group, and 68.0 to 73.1 years in the abiraterone or enzalutamide group. In our meta-analysis, cabazitaxel significantly improved progression-free survival (PFS) rates (HR 0.60; 95% CI 0.47–0.78; p < 0.001) compared to abiraterone or enzalutamide. There were no differences between groups in overall survival (HR 0.76; 95% CI 0.46–1.24; p = 0.27), therapy-related grade ≥ 3 adverse events (AEs) (OR 3.00; 95% CI 0.72–12.40; p = 0.12), and PSA decline ≥ 50% (OR 1.20; 95% CI 0.51–2.80; p = 0.67).

Conclusions

In this systematic review and meta-analysis of men with mCRPC after docetaxel failure, second-line therapy with cabazitaxel was associated with a longer PFS compared with abiraterone or enzalutamide, though without a significant difference in OS.
