Three novel androgen receptor inhibitors provide an embarrassment of riches when it comes to treatment options for nmCRPC patients, but there are still questions to be answered—including the extent of these drugs’ clinical benefit.
Findings from 18-fluciclovine (Axumin) positron emission tomography/computed tomography imaging had a major impact on management decisions for men with biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.
Published findings from PROCEED, a large registry collecting data from men treated with sipuleucel-T (Provenge) for asymptomatic/minimally symptomatic metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, provide valuable insight on real-world outcomes associated with this immunotherapy agent in the modern era of prostate cancer management.
The FDA has approved apalutamide (Erleada) for the treatment of patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer, a new indication for the next-generation androgen receptor inhibitor.
A preliminary study of the use of salvage lymph node dissection in patients with nonmetastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer indicates the potential to delay disease recurrence as well as the use of systemic therapies through this approach.
A new study suggests that prostate-specific membrane antigen positron emission tomography/computed tomography may be a highly beneficial tool for initial staging of high-risk and high-intermediate-risk prostate cancer.
Researchers say the use of apalutamide (Erleada) in patients with high-risk, nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer improves metastasis-free survival in patients who have previously undergone radical prostatectomy or external radiotherapy—regardless of the type of treatment they received.
"The last several years have been particularly exciting in the area of metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer," writes J. Brantley Thrasher, MD.
Analyses of data collected in PROCEED, a large real-world registry, corroborate phase III study findings demonstrating that sipuleucel-T (Provenge) treatment for metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer has a particular benefit for improving overall survival in African-American men.
A new technique using gold-silica nanoparticles to perform ultrafocal photothermal ablation of prostate cancer tumors seems feasible, safe, and relatively free of serious complications for men with low- or intermediate-risk localized prostate cancer.
