Progression of hormone-refractory prostate cancer (HRPC) is associated with skeletal complications and bone pain, which contribute to deterioration in quality of life (QOL). The effects of new HRPC therapies on patients' QOL need to be studied. Patient-based assessments that help quantify the risk-benefit profile of HRPC therapies are warranted. This review summarizes the known QOL literature and estimates the potential effect of atrasentan, a novel, selective endothelin A receptor antagonist (SERA), on the QOL of HRPC patients.
