Proposed treatment approach for mHSPC on the basis of disease volume (high-volume v low-volume) and timing of metastatic disease development (synchronous/de novo v metachronous/relapsed). High-volume disease is defined as visceral metastases and/or ≥4 bone metastases with at least one outside of the vertebral column and pelvis on the basis of CHAARTED criteria. De novo mHSPC is defined as metastatic disease at the time of initial prostate cancer diagnosis. Relapsed/metachronous mHSPC is defined as metastatic disease identified after initial diagnosis and treatment for localized prostate cancer. Assessments are made using conventional imaging (computed tomography and bone scan). In all settings, a clinical trial should be considered to further evaluate optimal treatment strategies and improve outcomes. ADT, androgen-deprivation therapy; ARSI, androgen receptor signaling inhibitor; mHSPC, metastatic hormone–sensitive prostate cancer.
