In this video, Alexander Chehrazi-Raffle, MD, discusses the results of the CYCLONE 2 study into metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, presented at ASCO Annual Meeting.
Chehrazi-Raffle, a medical oncologist at the City of Hope Duarte Cancer Center, highlighted the study, which looked at a combination therapy of abemaciclib (Verzenio, Eli Lilly & Co.) and abiraterone in a sample of patients.
“We'll have to wait for CYCLONE 3 to see if this combination has any value in the high-risk, hormone-sensitive setting. But given the results of CYCLONE 2, I don't anticipate there'll be new signals of efficacy,” Chehrazi-Raffle said.
