    4 - pembrolizumab 
       In prostate cancer, CDK12 mutations occur in 5%−7% of patients with mCRPC, and most are biallelic inactivations.
       CDK12-altered/mutated prostate cancer is an aggressive subtype with poor responses and outcomes to hormonal, taxane, and PARP inhibitor therapies. A proportion of these patients may respond favorably to PD-1 inhibitors, which implicates CDK12 deficiency in immunotherapy sensitivity.

    He should be treated with cabazitaxel and pembrolizumab. CDK12 does not respond to PARP inhibitors.
