Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer

Hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) is a type of prostate cancer that relies on androgens (male hormones) for growth and progression. It typically responds to therapies that reduce androgen levels or block their action, such as androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), making it a key target for treatment in early-stage disease. This form of cancer is also known as androgen-dependent, androgen-sensitive, or castrate-sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC).
