ABSTRACT
INTRODUCTION:
Docetaxel 75 mg/m2 every 3 weeks for up to 10 cycles is an accepted standard regimen in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). We report our experience with >20 cycles of biweekly nanosomal docetaxel lipid suspension (NDLS) treatment in patients with mCRPC. CASE REPORTS Cases with long-term treatment of NDLS treatment in mCRPC patients were identified from the medical records of Jawaharlal Nehru Cancer Hospital & Research Centre Bhopal, India. A total of three cases with >20 cycles of NDLS are presented here. MANAGEMENT ANDOUTCOMES:
Overall, the 3 patients received biweekly NDLS at a dose of 45 mg/m2 for 22, 36, and 40 cycles, respectively, except for one patient where NDLS was initiated at 50 mg/m2 and later reduced to 45 mg/m2. All the 3 patients reported prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response (>50% decline in PSA levels from baseline). The time to treatment failure (TTF) was 14.8, 18.2, and 20.6 months in these 3 patients, respectively. PSA nadir occurred after 14, 6 and 13 cycles, respectively. The OS was 21.6, 22.2 and 25.8 months, respectively. Anemia, lymphopenia, and neutropenia were the most common adverse events. NDLS treatment was overall well-tolerated without any new safety concerns.CONCLUSIONS:
Biweekly NDLS for >20 cycles was effective and well-tolerated in patients with mCRPC. NDLS can potentially be used for long-term management, which may be a requirement for most patients with mCRPC.Palabras clave
