Clinical Pearls:
- Theoretically, many therapies with targets and toxicities that do not overlap could be used together, though this has not been studied
- Early phase II studies are being conducted looking at sipuleucel-T with or without enzalutamide or abiraterone, though they are not likely to be particularly informative as they are both tolerable therapies
- Trials are not yet being done to answer the question as to whether combining or sequencing agents and immunotherapies can actually improve outcomes
