TP53 and Prognosis in mCRPC Survival: Biology or Coincidence?

Richard J Rebello et al. Clin Cancer Res. .

Abstract

Cell-free circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) or circulating tumor cell (CTC) assays are potentially powerful in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). A new study suggests that mutation of TP53 supersedes AR in predicting mCRPC survival. A role for TP53 mutation as a driver for mCRPC remains unexplored.See related article by De Laere et al., p. 1766.
