Triplet therapy with darolutamide and docetaxel for metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer: a multicenter real-world study.

What it found
Each row is one number read from the abstract, on the scale the paper reported it, with its interval. Left of the dashed line favours the treatment, right favours the comparator. Under each row is the sentence it came from. New to these charts? A ten-minute tutorial.
The abstract states no effect estimate the extractor could read, or names no intervention and outcome on the map, so this paper lights no cell and moves no belief. It is still indexed, cited and linked below.
The trial behind it
Trials whose registry record cites this paper, or whose number appears in the abstract. A trial that started after this paper was published is citing it as background, not reporting it.
Neither the registry nor the abstract names a trial number. If this is a trial report, that itself is worth knowing.

Abstract
backgroundTriplet therapy with darolutamide and docetaxel has reshaped the treatment landscape of metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC). However, real-world evidence regarding its oncological outcomes and toxicity remains limited.
methodsWe retrospectively reviewed 112 consecutive patients with mCSPC who were treated with triplet therapy. A deep prostate-specific antigen (PSA) response was defined as a PSA level < 0.2 ng/ml or a ≥ 90% decline from baseline. Castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC)-free survival was used as the survival endpoint. Clinicopathological factors associated with CRPC-free survival were analysed using a Cox proportional hazards model. Treatment-related adverse events (AEs) were comprehensively documented by type and grade.
resultsDuring a median follow-up of 17.1 months, 15 patients developed CRPC and four died of prostate cancer; 1-year CRPC-free survival and overall survival rates were 89.8% (95% confidence interval, 83.9%-96.0%) and 98.8% (96.5%-100%), respectively. A deep PSA response was achieved in 73.2% of patients (PSA nadir <0.2 ng/ml) and in 96.4% (PSA ≥ 90% decline). In both the univariable and multivariable analyses, no baseline factor was significantly associated with CRPC-free survival. Grade ≥ 3 hematologic AEs occurred in 75.0% of patients. Among the 31 patients who discontinued docetaxel, 26 discontinued due to non-hematologic AEs.
conclusionsTriplet therapy demonstrated substantial clinical activity in real-world patients with mCSPC, with high rates of deep PSA response despite frequent AEs. These findings support the feasibility of triplet therapy in routine practice. Given the substantial toxicity burden, careful patient selection and proactive AE management remain important.
