    Abstract: This study retrospectively reviewed the clinical characteristics and treatment outcomes of patients with histologically diagnosed treatment-related pure small-cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer. Methods We retrospectively evaluated data for 13 patients with treatment-related neuroendocrine prostate cancer who were diagnosed between May 2015 and February 2022. Standardized systemic therapies of etoposide plus cisplatin (or carboplatin), amrubicin and nogitecan were selected as sequential treatments. Cancer-specific survival and progression-free survival were evaluated as the primary endpoint. The Cox proportional hazards model was used to evaluate the relationships between treatment regimens, clinical variables, cancer-specific survival and progression-free survival. Results The median cancer-specific survival after diagnosis for all patients was 22.4 months (range 1.3–33.4 months). The median progression-free survival was 9.3 months after first-line etoposide plus cisplatin (or carboplatin) treatment (n = 13); 4.2 months after second-line amrubicin treatment (n = 4); and  & gt;15 months after third-line nogitecan treatment (n = 2). The median progression-free survival after first-line chemotherapy of the liver metastasis (−) group was 10.2 months, and that of the (+) group was 5.3 months (P = 0.015, hazard ratio = 11.6, 95% confidence interval = 1.01 – 133.7). No clinicopathological parameters were identified as significant independent predictors of cancer-specific survival in univariate analysis. Conclusion Sequential chemotherapy with etoposide plus cisplatin (or carboplatin), amrubicin and nogitecan may be helpful for patients with treatment-related pure small-cell neuroendocrine prostate cancer. Early biopsy of metastases and initiation of effective therapy is essential for patients with progressive castration-resistant prostate cancer and low prostate-specific antigen.

    Abstract: Skeletal fragility and high fracture rates are common in CKD. A key component of bone loss in CKD with secondary hyperparathyroidism is high bone turnover and cortical bone deterioration through both cortical porosity and cortical thinning. We hypothesized that RANKL drives high bone resorption within cortical bone leading to the development of cortical porosity in CKD (study 1) and that systemic inhibition of RANKL would mitigate the skeletal phenotype of CKD (study 2). In study 1, we assessed the skeletal properties of male and female Dmp1-cre RANKLfl/fl (cKO) and control genotype (Ranklfl/fl; Con) mice after 10 wk of adenine-induced CKD (AD; 0.2% dietary adenine). All AD mice regardless of sex or genotype had elevated blood urea nitrogen and high PTH. Con AD mice in both sexes had cortical porosity and lower cortical thickness as well as high osteoclast-covered trabecular surfaces and higher bone formation rate. cKO mice had preserved cortical bone microarchitecture despite high circulating PTH as well as no CKD-induced increases in osteoclasts. In study 2, male mice with established AD CKD were either given a single injection of an anti-RANKL antibody (5 mg/kg) 8 wk post-induction of CKD or subjected to 3×/wk dosing with risedronate (1.2 μg/kg) for 4 wk. Anti-RANKL treatment significantly reduced bone formation rate as well as osteoclast surfaces at both trabecular and cortical pore surfaces; risedronate treatment had little effect on these bone parameters. In conclusion, these studies demonstrate that bone-specific RANKL is critical for the development of high bone formation/high osteoclasts and cortical bone loss in CKD with high PTH. Additionally, systemic anti-RANKL ligand therapy in established CKD may help prevent the propagation of cortical bone loss via suppression of bone turnover.
