Abstract
This chapter summarizes the findings of landmark TAX 327 trial in men with castrate-refractory prostate cancer who received either docetaxel (weekly or every 3 weeks) or mitoxantrone (every 3 weeks). The study found improved overall survival, better quality of life, and similar side effects in men treated with docetaxel.
