Androgen receptor alterations in bloodwork linked to poorer outcomes across therapies treating metastatic prostate cancer

Androgen receptor alterations consistently emerged in serial liquid biopsies researchers used to track how metastatic prostate cancer evolves under treatment pressure. These alterations were linked to poorer outcomes across therapies, according to a multi-center collaboration of investigators from Sylvester, UC San Diego, Moores Cancer Center, the University of California, San Francisco, Scripps Research Institute, and Guardant Health.
