[New drugs at the horizon for men with prostate cancer].
Despite major progress in the understanding of biological mechanisms underlying metastatic prostate cancer, the treatment of men with advanced prostate cancer remains challenging. Several randomized controlled trials with promising or positive results are underway or just released. Here we discuss new treatments which might be used in clinic in the near future: hormonal treatments (Abiraterone and MDV3100), a new chemotherapy (Cabazitaxel), a cellular vaccine (Sipuleucel-T), anti-angiogenic drugs (Bevacizumab, Aflibercept), a new radioactive treatment (Alpharadin) and a new bone-protective agent (Deno-sumab).
