However, nmCRPC is often unexploited in clinical practice due to a lack of standardization in the methodology and in the tools used for its identification. In this article, a group of Urology and Oncology specialists with acknowledged expertise in prostate cancer reviews the state of the art in the management of high-risk nmCRPC patients, identifies gaps and unmet needs, and proposes strategies to optimize the identification of this patient subgroup in the clinical practice and improve their health outcomes.engNeoplasias de Próstata Resistentes à CastraçãoProstatic Neoplasms, Castration-ResistantImproving the identification of high-risk non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients in clinical practicejournal article10.3389/fonc.2023.1266369
