Abstract
Platelet to lymphocyte ratio (PLR) is a candidate prognostic marker for metastatic castration‐resistant prostate cancer patients receiving abiraterone acetate and evidence demonstrates that a high PLR is associated with poor survival. More studies are required to verify current findings and establish a definite cutoff point. [ABSTRACT FROM AUTHOR]
