...Positive AR-V7 detected in exosome was associated with shorter bPFS compared with AR-V7 negative patients (HR 4.08, 95%CI 1.13-14.69, P=0.03). However, AR-V7 positivity in tumor tissue and CTC failed to predict clinical prognosis in mCRPC treated with abiraterone....The positivity of AR-V7 in plasma-derived exosomes outperforms CTC and tumor tissue as a predictor of primary resistance in mCRPC patients treated with abiraterone.
