Next generation sequencing of advanced non-castrate prostate cancer treated with docetaxel chemotherapy

ABSTRACT: Early chemotherapy for advanced/metastatic non-castration resistant prostate cancer (PCa) may improve overall patient survival. We studied the safety, tolerability and early efficacy of up-front docetaxel chemotherapy and androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) versus ADT alone for patients with newly-diagnosed advanced/metastatic PCa. As proof of concept, we undertook in vivo gene expression profiling by next generation RNA sequencing (RNA-Seq). Tumour biposies from 6 patients were taken before and after treatment with combined ADT and docetaxcel for 6 weeks
