Abstract

Ipatasertib combined with abiraterone in PTEN-null prostate cancer improved progression-free survival in a randomized phase II study of patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), providing clinical evidence of reciprocal activation between the Akt and androgen receptor (AR) pathways. These data revive the rationale for targeting PTEN loss in prostate cancer.
