Marked response to cabazitaxel in prostate cancer xenografts expressing androgen receptor variant 7 and reversion of acquired resistance by anti‐androgens

Background Taxane treatment may be a suitable therapeutic option for patients with castration‐resistant prostate cancer and high expression of constitutively active androgen receptor variants (AR‐Vs). The aim of the study was to compare the effects of cabazitaxel and androgen deprivation treatments in a prostate tumor xenograft model expressing high levels of constitutively active AR‐V7. Furthermore, mechanisms behind acquired cabazitaxel...
