Prostatic Neoplasms, Castration-Resistant

Healthcare costs of mCRPC in university hospitals in Japan

Trial purpose

The study was a local, retrospective, observational, single-cohort study based on secondary data and was conducted to determine the healthcare costs in metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) in national university hospitals in Japan.
