Persistent Unmet Need in mCRPC

        Current Therapies Have Limitations:

        1. Restricted to Post-Chemotherapy Setting

        2. OS Benefit in Chemo-Naïve Setting Without
           Objective Response or Impact on How a
           Patient Feels or Functions

        3. Limited Penetrance of Chemotherapy

Summary
• In patients with asymptomatic and mildly
  symptomatic, chemotherapy-naïve mCRPC,
  treatment with abiraterone acetate plus
  prednisone:
     – Delays disease progression
     – Increases survival
     – Extends time with minimal or no symptoms
     – No new important safety signals
