74-year-old male who does not believe in consulting the doctor has come to see you today on the insistence of his wife. He reluctantly complains of increasing urinary frequency, urgency, and nocturia—all symptoms that have been present for ‘several years’ and are now progressively getting worse. He also has difficulty starting to urinate, but denies ever having a UTI. While in the office, his wife urges him to tell you about another problem that he has experienced but takes lightly. The wife says that he has developed chronic lower back pain over the last several months that will not improve. She says this pain is concurrent with weight loss and a decreased appetite. Which of the following medications will the patient most likely be prescribed? (Choose the best answer.) A. Actinomycin D B. Carboplatin C. Flutamide D. Interferon-alpha, -beta, or -gamma E. Mitomysin C
