Intermediate End Point for Prostate Cancer Mortality
Whether the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response to salvage hormonal therapy can act as an intermediate end point for prostate cancerspecific mortality (PCSM) remains unclear. DAmico et al. (p. 509) evaluated whether PSA responsethe ratio of the rate of PSA change after salvage hormonal therapy to the rate of PSA change before salvage therapyis associated with PCSM by using data from a single institution and two pooled multi-institutional databases. They found that PSA response was statistically significantly associated with time to PCSM following salvage hormonal therapy; however, its constituents (i.e.,
