We show that an increasing chromogranin on AA/P and an elevated baseline CGA/PSA in patients with mCRPC were associated with a favorable response to AA/P with no changes in survival. There may be limited clinical utility in serum CGA testing to evaluate for lethal NED as AA/P did not induce lethal NED in this cohort. This highlights that not all patients with an increasing CGA have a worse OS.
