a Prostate-specific antigen (PSA) level during treatment in the two groups

The black line shows the median PSA level in combined androgen blockade (CAB) therapy with concurrent gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) antagonist (CAB-antagonist therapy) and the black-dotted line shows the median PSA level in CAB therapy with concurrent GnRH agonist (CAB-agonist therapy). The box plot indicates upper whisker (+ 1.5 interquartile range), upper quartile, median, lower quartile, and lower whisker (− 1.5 interquartile range), respectively, with outlier marks. b The probability of PSA elevation > 4 ng/mL was significantly lower in CAB-antagonist therapy than CAB-agonist therapy in prostate cancer patients with PSA level > 50 ng/ml
