Prostate Cancer

Ulka N. Vaishampayan, MBBS, discussed the potential benefits of oral docetaxel plus ritonavir in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Phillip H. Kuo, MD, PhD, spoke about incorporating prostate-specific membrane antigen–PET imaging into multidisciplinary care for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Phillip H. Kuo, MD, PhD, spoke about the future of theragnostic imaging in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Findings from a study revealed a notable reduction in the risk of prostate cancer–specific mortality in Black United States veterans who underwent prostate-specific antigen screening, highlighting the potential importance of undergoing annual screenings in this patient population.

Shared insight on optimal patient monitoring strategies while administering therapy for metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer.

In an interview with CancerNetwork®, E. David Crawford, MD, discussed implications from the recent FDA approval of darolutamide plus docetaxel and androgen deprivation therapy in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer based on findings from the phase 3 ARASENS trial.

Investigators highlighted that when determining a treatment strategy for patients with early-stage prostate cancer, baseline benign prostate hyperplasia symptoms should be taken into consideration.

Phillip H. Kuo, MD, PhD, spoke about how prostate-specific membrane antigen PET scan testing affected outcomes in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Ian D. Davis, MBBS, PhD, spoke about the TheraP study which evaluated 177Lu-PSMA-617 vs cabazitaxel in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

In light of the recent FDA approval of darolutamide plus docetaxel and androgen deprivation therapy in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, E. David Crawford, MD, discussed the research that paved the way for the regulatory decision and where future efforts need to be focused.

Phillip H. Kuo, MD, PhD, spoke about the use of theragnostic treatment and imaging for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Panelists provide comprehensive insight on treatment strategies specific to the setting of low-volume metastatic prostate cancer.

Based on data showing that patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer may achieve benefit following treatment with olaparib plus abiraterone and prednisone or prednisolone regardless of homologous recombination repair mutational status, the FDA gave the combination priority review.

Patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer can now receive treatment with oral darolutamide plus docetaxel following its approval by the FDA.

Results from the phase 3 KEYNOTE-921 trial showed the primary end points of overall survival and radiographic progression-free survival were not met despite a trend towards improvement following treatment with pembrolizumab and docetaxel in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Radical proctectomy, external beam radiotherapy, and brachytherapy yielded comparable prostate cancer–specific mortality, while external beam radiotherapy with or without brachytherapy resulted in favorable distant metastases outcomes in patients with high-risk prostate cancer.

At 24 months of follow-up, MRI-guided focused ultrasound focal therapy was found to be safe and effective for patients with grade group 2 or 3 prostate cancer.

Enzalutamide monotherapy could be a promising alternative to active surveillance for patients with low- and intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer.

Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer tumors can be classified as luminal and basal, possibly allowing for a better precision medicine approach to treatment.

Patients with high-risk prostate cancer appeared to derive benefit from androgen deprivation therapy given for a minimal duration of over 18 months plus external beam radiotherapy.

Treatment with 177Lu-PSMA-617 resulted in poor outcomes for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer whose tumors had little to no prostate-specific membrane antigen expression.

Data from the SPOTLIGHT trial indicate agreement among trained PET readers was highly concordant with use of 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 imaging for recurrent prostate cancer.

The radiotherapy schedules used in the ATLAS trial reflect recent evidence and guideline changes for its usage in patients with high-risk localized or locally advanced prostate cancer.

Results from the phase 3 SPOTLIGHT trial showed 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 increased post-scan disease upstaging in recurrent prostate cancer.
