Cancer stem cells are a small subset of cancer cells constituting a reservoir of self-sustaining cells with the exclusive ability to self-renew and maintain the tumor. These cells are identified by specific stem cell markers: antigens, molecules and signaling pathways. Transcription factors and molecules associated with oncogenesis, such as NF-κB, Bmi-1, Notch, WNT beta-catenin, Sonic hedgehog and their biochemical pathways, active only in a small minority of cancer cells might play key roles in determining the biology and the overall long-term behavior of a tumor. The molecules and pathways specific for cancer stem cells, which contribute to their drug resistance, are potential targets for new therapeutic strategies.

Apalutamide belongs to the ARTA group. This drug is a new generation selective androgen receptor inhibitor. Patients with prostate cancer develop resistance to castration testosterone levels over timeduring hormone therapy. Therefore, it is necessary to consider additional therapeutic options based on drugs from the ARTA group. Apalutamide is used in the treatment of patients with non-metastatic as well as metastatic prostate cancer. This article presents the most important clinical facts about apalutamide.

Apalutamide belongs to the ARTA group. This drug is a new generation selective androgen receptor inhibitor. Patients with prostate cancer develop resistance to castration testosterone levels over time during hormone therapy. Therefore, it is necessary to consider additional therapeutic options based on drugs from the ARTA group. The article presents the role of apalutamide in the treatment of prostate cancer and its effectiveness. Moreover, attention was drawn to the need for close cooperation between the urologist and the oncologist in order to optimize the treatment of a patient with progressive prostate cancer.
