Small-Cell Prostate Cancer Variety Surprisingly Common

No authors listed. Cancer Discov. 2018 Sep.

Abstract

A recent study finds that treatment-emergent small-cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer occurs in 17% of patients with the metastatic, castration-resistant form of the disease. This small-cell variety of prostate cancer shows a distinct gene expression signature and reduces patients' survival by nearly 20%.
