Most of patient suffering from a prostate cancer will develop a castration resistance. In this common and clinically challenging situation, chemotherapy was not considered very useful until mid 2000s. Docetaxel is now recognized as a standard of care, improving overall survival and quality of life. However, new drugs are needed. Two compounds (cabazitaxel and abiraterone) are now underway to official registration and an autologous vaccin strategy (Sipuleucel) demonstrated a benefit in survival. Based on a greater knowledge of biology, many other agents are currently under development, such as new specific peripheral anti-androgens, anti-angiogenic therapies, or proteasome inhibitors. All these new drugs are promising and may provide more efficient therapies against this incurable disease in the near future.
