Background: ARASENS and PEACE-1 trials have shown that the addition of NHTs to D + androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) improves overall survival (OS) outcomes in mCSPC. However, whether a true synergism is present with using NHT+ADT+D is unknown due to the lack of a trial testing the efficacy of adding D to the NHT+ADT backbone. Our objective was to evaluate the survival outcomes with NHTs according to D use in mCSPC. Methods: The literature search was done from PubMed and Embase databases to identify published studies until February 12th, 2022 for meta-analysis. The MeSH search terms were “castration-sensitive prostate cancer” OR “hormone-sensitive prostate cancer” OR “hormone-naïve prostate cancer” AND “abiraterone” OR “apalutamide” OR “enzalutamide” OR “darolutamide”. The target outcome measures were progression-free survival (PFS) and OS. Generic inverse-variance method with a fixed-effects model was used, with hazard ratios with 95% two-sided confidence intervals (CI) as the principal summary measure (Review Manager software, version 5.3, The Nordic Cochrane Center, The Cochrane Collaboration, Copenhagen, Denmark). P values below 0.05 were considered statistically significant. Results: The literature search retrieved a total of 2565 records. Six phase III studies encompassing 6701 patients evaluating survival outcomes with NHTs in mCSPC (TITAN, ARCHES, ENZAMET, LATITUDE, STAMPEDE Abi- M1, and PEACE-1) were included after filtering of the available records. Results summarized in below table. In the combined analysis, the addition of NHTs to standard of care (SOC) improved PFS and OS. PFS benefit with NHTs was similar in studies (or study subgroups) with or without D use. However the relative OS benefit with a NHT was higher in studies (or study subgroups) without D than studies permitting D (concurrent or sequential). Conclusions: In this meta-analysis, the PFS and OS benefit with NHT in mCSPC was observed independent of D use. A randomized phase III study comparing D+NHT+ADT with NHT+ADT is needed to evaluate the contribution of D to survival outcomes in patients with mCSPC receiving treatment with NHT+ADT.
