A review of numerous clinical series dealing with the treatment of patients with clinical stage C prostate cancer failed to find the treatment or a combination of treatments that is superior to any other. Accurate staging, which was difficult in older studies, and stage migration, which complicates the comparison of recent to older studies, may contribute to this lack of identification. The majority of patients ultimately experience disease progression and are therefore treated with hormonal therapy, the use of which obscures survival data for initial modes of treatment. These observations point to the need for control of randomised clinical trials to identify effective treatments in the future.
