Summary
Recent evidence suggests that the successful treatment of prostate cancer may require adjuvant therapies. Accordingly, a better understanding of the molecular mechanisms involved in current treatments may lead to enhanced efficacy by providing a basis for adjuvant therapies. In this study, the authors demonstrate that the combination of sub-lethal concentrations of chemotherapeutic agents prior to freezing (-15 °C) in a prostate cancer cell (PC-3) model results in enhanced efficacy over either treatment alone.
