ABSTRACT
Several life-prolonging therapies for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) are available, including radium-223 dichloride (223Ra), which was approved based on phase 3 data demonstrating improved overall survival (OS) and a favorable safety profile. To date, real-world evidence for 223Ra use in Taiwan is from three studies of <50 patients. This observational study (NCT04232761) enrolled male patients with histologically/cytologically confirmed mCRPC with bone metastases from centers across Taiwan. 223Ra was prescribed as part of routine practice by investigators. Patients with prior 223Ra treatment were excluded. The primary objective was to assess 223Ra safety; secondary objectives evaluated efficacy parameters, including OS. Overall, 224 patients were enrolled. Most patients had an Eastern Cooperative Oncology Group performance status of 0/1 (79.0%) and ≤20 bone metastases (69.2%); no patients had visceral metastases. 223Ra was first- or second-line therapy in 23.2% and 47.7% of patients, respectively. The total proportion of patients who received 5-6 223Ra cycles was 68.8%; this proportion was greater with first-line use (84.3%) than second- (65.7%) or third-/fourth-line use (64.1%). More chemotherapy-naïve patients (61.9%) completed the 6-cycle 223Ra treatment than chemotherapy-exposed patients (56.7%). Any-grade treatment-emergent adverse events (TEAEs) and serious TEAEs occurred in 54.0% and 28.6% of patients, respectively, while 12% experienced 223Ra-related adverse events. Median OS was 15.7 months (95% confidence interval 12.13-19.51); patients receiving 5-6 223Ra injections and earlier 223Ra use had longer OS than those receiving fewer injections and later 223Ra use. 223Ra provides a well-tolerated and effective treatment for Taiwanese patients with mCRPC and bone metastases.
