PURPOSE Androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) results in a truncated receptor, which
leads to ligand-independent constitutive activation that is not inhibited by anti-androgen
therapies, including abiraterone or enzalutamide. Given that previous reports suggested that
circulating tumor cell (CTC) AR-V7 detection is a poor prognostic indicator for the clinical
efficacy of secondary hormone therapies, we conducted a prospective multicenter validation
study.
Abstract
PURPOSE
Androgen receptor splice variant 7 (AR-V7) results in a truncated receptor, which leads to ligand-independent constitutive activation that is not inhibited by anti-androgen therapies, including abiraterone or enzalutamide. Given that previous reports suggested that circulating tumor cell (CTC) AR-V7 detection is a poor prognostic indicator for the clinical efficacy of secondary hormone therapies, we conducted a prospective multicenter validation study.
