Panelists discuss how to address the challenges in providing optimal care for mCRPC patients and how barriers may vary between different healthcare settings, such as rural vs. urban and private vs. public.

Panelists discuss how the dosing and administration of different abiraterone formulations vary, how food-related effects impact treatment efficacy, and strategies to manage these effects for optimal patient outcomes.

Panelists discuss how criteria such as patient comorbidities, disease progression levels, and treatment goals should be considered when selecting the appropriate form of abiraterone for patients with mCRPC, and also explore the potential benefits and drawbacks of using micronized abiraterone in specific patient populations.

Panelists discuss how the STAAR study (Stein, 2018) indicates that the micronized abiraterone formulation results in lower average serum testosterone levels in 25% of patients compared to 17% with the originator formulation, potentially influencing treatment selection.
