Prostate Cancer

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.

Metastatic progression pattern with darolutamide appears to be unaltered in nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, despite the agent resulting in better survival outcomes.

A post-hoc analysis of the phase 3 TITAN trial revealed potential biomarkers that may predict overall survival in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer receiving apalutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy.

Unlike with enzalutamide, it appears darolutamide does not affect systemic exposure of cabazitaxel in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Data presented at 2022 ASCO reveals PET-imaging characteristics linked with 177Lu-PSMA-617 efficacy in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Results of the ENZAMET trial presented at 2022 ASCO continue to support use of enzalutamide in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.

Similar overall survival, better patient-reported outcomes, and fewer adverse effects were observed when patients were treated with 177Lu-PSMA-617 vs cabazitaxel in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Adverse effects were found to be similar between patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer who were treated with darolutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy and docetaxel vs androgen deprivation therapy and docetaxel alone.

Judd W. Moul, MD, spoke with CancerNetwork® about the latest research from the journal ONCOLOGY® on the treatment of a patients with evidence of prostate cancer despite multiple negative prognostic tests.

Three year follow-up findings from a post hoc analysis of the phase 3 ARAMIS trial indicated that darolutamide maintained a survival benefit regardless of prior local therapy for patients with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Adding niraparib to abiraterone acetate and prednisone improved efficacy and yielded tolerable safety for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with homologous recombination repair gene alterations.

Expert panelists center discussion around two patient cases to review use of newer anti-androgen deprivation therapy in the management of prostate cancer.

Findings from the phase 3 ARCHES trial highlighted a long-lasting survival improvement for patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer who were treated with enzalutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy regardless of whether they received prior local therapy.

Mark T. Fleming, MD, spoke about how use of 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 for PET/CT scans in patients with recurrent prostate cancer bests conventional imaging.

Results from a phase 3 trial indicated that olaparib yielded better-preserved health-related quality of life and reduced pain burden vs the control for patients with homologous recombination repair gene–altered metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who progressed following a prior next-generation hormonal drug.

Superior post-scan disease upstaging in patients with recurrent prostate cancer was observed with 18F-rhPSMA-7.3 compared with conventional baseline imaging.

Patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate and DNA repair gene defects cancer treated with niraparib were found to experience significant anti-tumor activity.

Looking toward the future management of metastatic HSPC, experts consider the results of triplet combination trials like ARASENS and PEACE-1.

The FDA granted priority review to a supplemental new drug application for darolutamide plus docetaxel for the treatment of metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.

Muhammad Rafay Khan Niazi, MD, and Alexander Bershadskiy, MD, spoke with CancerNetwork® about the latest research from the journal ONCOLOGY® on the use of PARP inhibitors as maintenance therapy for certain patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer who had a high genomic loss of heterozygosity may respond better to treatment with talazoparib.

Genetic determinants of PSA proved to robustly predict prostate cancer diagnoses and improve the detection of aggressive disease; however, larger and more diverse studies are still required.
