Key clinical point: Patients with prostate cancer who receive second-generation antiandrogens show higher risk for depression vs those who receive traditional hormone therapy (HT) alone or no HT.
Major finding: Second-generation antiandrogens were associated with increased risk for depression vs no HT (hazard ratio [HR], 2.15; P < .001). The risk for depression with second-generation antiandrogens was also higher vs traditional HT (HR, 2.26; P < .001), including specifically among those with metastatic disease at diagnosis (HR, 2.40; P = .002).
Study details: A retrospective study of 30,069 patients with prostate cancer without a second cancer over the course of 12 months between 2011 and 2015.
