Over a decade of abiraterone: the drug that revolutionised advanced prostate cancer care This Prostate Cancer Awareness Month, we’re celebrating over 10 years since abiraterone was first recommended by NICE in England as a treatment for advanced prostate cancer.

One drug we discovered, abiraterone, has helped to give thousands of men with advanced #ProstateCancer, many more years with their loved ones.
