“New regimens should now start to be explored, both…single-agent drugs as well as combination therapies,” says Pavlos Msaouel, MD, PhD.

“[Polygenic risk scores] will help augment PSA screening and other tools to really figure out when we should initiate prostate cancer screening in men and how frequently that screening should occur,” says Isla Garraway, MD, PhD.

“[It’s] important to see all of these…clinically important endpoints going in the same direction,” says Matthew D. Galsky, MD.

“I think this is an area that needs to be really personalized to each clinical practice,” says Alicia K. Morgans, MD, MPH.

“It was incredibly humbling,” says Eila C. Skinner, MD.

“Our data suggests that we shouldn’t just be relying on metastasis-directed therapy alone,” says Andrew J. Armstrong, MD, MSc.

Vivek K. Narayan, MD, MS, provides insight on the evolution of care for mCSPC and the current use of ARI-directed therapy for disease management.

Experts in prostate cancer comment on the role of urologists in performing molecular testing and share how they facilitate treatment of advanced prostate cancer across multiple disciplines.

“This category of therapeutic is fairly well-tolerated; safe to give,” says Mohummad M. Siddiqui MD.

“We still debate and there’s some good data that [supports that] chemotherapy is not that effective for patients with penile cancer,” says Philippe E. Spiess, MD, MS, FACS.

“Adverse pathology is a clear predictor of long-term outcomes for patients,” says Eric A. Klein, MD.

“We’re just getting one step closer to being able to find urine tests that we can use to help risk stratify patients, and then help understand the genetic profiles of other tumors, which might help guide management later on,” says Wesley Yip, MD.

“We found that, overall, segmental ureterectomy patients actually did better in terms of overall survival,” says Siv Venkat, MD, FRCSC.

“It’s really important to look at the pathology we’ve learned before considering these patients for active surveillance treatment,” says Isla Garraway, MD, PhD.

"The results of this trial impacted practice globally,” says Michael J. Morris, MD.

“For most men, we can identify the specific site or sites of recurrence, and thereby use a more directed therapy that specifically targets the abnormal sites,” says Gerald L. Andriole, MD.

“The good news for patients is that the survival and radiographic progression-free survival [were] substantially improved in all subsets,” says Andrew J. Armstrong, MD, MSc.

"It’s an important topic to debate,” says Scott E. Eggener, MD.

“There are so many advances in prostate cancer, many of which are actually targeted,” says Alicia K. Morgans, MD, MPH.

“[I focused on] why this such an important topic and how we might better counsel our patients,” says Kristen Scarpato, MD, MPH.

“One of the hardest things and one of the most important things is to figure out what part of urology excites you the most and look for those opportunities,” says Eila C. Skinner, MD.

"I think for the right patient, Cysview technology has a big deliverable,” says Alexander Kutikov, MD, FACS.

“My talk [highlights] unmet research needs that need to be addressed to further improve the adjuvant treatment landscape for our patients,” said Pavlos Msaouel, MD, PhD.

“Overall, my take is that even with an intense PSMA-targeted radionuclide regimen, I think the chance of a response… at least by PSA, is higher with stronger baseline PSMA imaging,” says Scott T. Tagawa, MD, MS, FACP.

“No question, we see that there’s a lot of heterogeneity in how penile cancer is managed across the United States,” says Philippe E. Spiess, MD, MS, FACS.

Prostate cancer experts review the use of PSMA PET/CT imaging and Axumin imaging for patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Raoul S. Concepcion, MD, presents the case of a 64-year-old-man with mCRPC, and Jason M. Hafron, MD, CMO, leads the discussion on the optimal treatment approach for the given case.

"Some of the discussion going on right now is how to improve the morbidity of bladder cancer treatment by pursuing such things…as bladder sparing approaches when feasible…and so, I think that’s very exciting,” says Mohummad M. Siddiqui, MD.

“The idea was really to bring together a multidisciplinary group of experts and to discuss…highly relevant, translational research that’s going on, and to…address some of the really critical clinical questions as well,” says Seth P. Lerner, MD, FACS.

“We are having a wealth of new medications that are helping our patients. Primarily with advanced disease, but…maybe there are going to be some applications to move that earlier and earlier in the in the disease process,” says Christopher B. Anderson, MD, MPH.
