ARON-3 Study: International Multicentric Retrospective Study to Collect Global Experiences in the Treatment of Patients With Metastatic PCa

November 19, 2025 updated by: Matteo Santoni, Hospital of Macerata

Study wants to explore real-world data in three distinct settings

  • Patients with metachronous or de novo mCSPC treated with ADT+ARSI or ADT+ARSI+docetaxel _ARON-3S
  • Patients receiving Lutetium-177 PSMA for mCRPC _ ARON-3Lu
  • Patients treated with PARP inhibitors (alone or combined with ARSI) for CRPC _ ARON-3GEN

Study Population

treatment of patients with metastatic PCa. In the ARON-3 Study the investigators focused on three different settings:

  • ARON-3S: Patients with metachronous or de novo metastatic hormone/castration-sensitive PCa treated with ADT + ARSI or ADT + ARSI + docetaxel
  • ARON-3Lu: Patients receiving Lutetium-177 PSMA for castration resistant PC (CRPC)
  • ARON-3GEN: Patients treated with PARP inhibitors (alone or plus ARSI) for CRPC

Description

Inclusion Criteria:

  • Patients aged >18y
