However, the initial therapeutic strategy in these patients usually involves withdrawal of anti-androgen that can be associated with biochemical response in approximately 20% of patients. Notably; we have observed evidence of sustained biochemical response in two patients following second- and third-line MAB using rechallenge schedule of previously administered anti-androgen after latent interval.
