mHSPC - Metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer

This is a Medudy Master Series on prostate cancer.

This module highlights the key aspects of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) and will be presented by Prof. Dr. Axel Merseburger, Director of the Department of Urology at the Lübeck Campus of the University Medical Center Schleswig-Holstein.

The course is divided into four parts: The first part deals with the epidemiology and staging of mHSPC. The second part is dedicated to the modern management and treatment options of mHSPC. The third part looks at the evidence and clinical relevance of double versus triple therapy, followed by a summary of the key messages on mHSPC. Finally, the fourth part provides an outlook on follow-up and the transition to the castration-resistant stage.
