Endocrine therapy is effective treatment for patients with metastatic prostate cancer. Most patients will benefit from androgen withdrawal in terms of symptomatic relief and delay in progression of diseases. It does not, however, cure patients with metastatic prostate cancer. This finding emphasizes the need for the development of effective nonendocrine therapies.
内分泌治疗是转移性前列腺癌患者的有效治疗方法。大多数患者将从雄激素剥夺中受益，在症状缓解和疾病进展延迟方面。然而，它并不能治愈转移性前列腺癌患者。这一发现强调了开发有效的非内分泌疗法的必要性。
