Andrew Armstrong, MD, ScM, of the Duke Cancer Institute, Durham, North Carolina, US, and an investigator in the trial, said: “Preventing or delaying radiographic progression or death is an important clinical endpoint in assessing cancer treatment and is very important to patients, their caregivers and their families. The PROpel results showed the Lynparza combination demonstrated a notable clinically meaningful benefit that should rapidly be considered as the standard of care treatment for patients with BRCA-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.”
