Research explores the effectiveness of Aerote in treating metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, focusing on patient subgroups and genetic factors.

“I think the big take-home message is now we've got multiple, multiple drugs showing that we can do significantly better than ADT alone," says Fred Saad, MD, FRCS.

Panelists discuss how the new tracing agent (Zr-DFO-girentuximab or 2050) works by binding to carbonic anhydrase IX, an enzyme expressed on the surface of most clear cell renal cancers, coupled with zirconium for radiographic detection.

Research highlights the need for personalized treatment in mHSPC, addressing variations in drug efficacy across diverse populations for optimal patient care.

Panelists discuss how the ZIRCON trial demonstrated high positive predictive value (> 90%) for identifying clear cell renal cell carcinoma using a new molecular imaging agent, though negative predictive value was lower at approximately 70%.

Research highlights the effectiveness and safety of mHSPC treatments for black men, ensuring they receive appropriate care and reassurance.

Panelists discuss how to approach treatment for a younger (49-year-old) male veteran with bladder cancer, focusing on the rising rates among veterans, challenges with recurrent disease despite BCG therapy, various second- and third-line treatment options, including gemcitabine-docetaxel combination therapy and the importance of thorough monitoring for disease progression.

Data showed a link between counties with higher rectal spacer use and a lower prevalence of ED at 4 to 5 years.

Panelists discuss the expanding treatment options for BCG-unresponsive high-risk non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer, highlighting the benefits and limitations of FDA-approved therapies like pembrolizumab, nadofaragene, and nogapendekin, alongside off-label use of gemcitabine-docetaxel, as clinicians strive to balance efficacy, accessibility, and individualized care amid ongoing resource challenges.

Panelists discuss the evolving definition of BCG-unresponsive non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC), emphasizing its critical role in identifying patients who fail adequate BCG therapy, guiding next-line treatment decisions, and determining eligibility for clinical trials exploring novel therapeutic options.

EV+P demonstrated superior efficacy to chemotherapy across all specified subgroups assessed.

“There are a lot of variables and factors in deciding what might be the entire first-line of therapy," says Adam B. Weiner, MD.

Jack Andrews, MD; Eugene Cone, MD; and Akshay Sood, MD, discuss how real-world safety and efficacy data for androgen receptor inhibitors (apalutamide, darolutamide, and enzalutamide) in nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer shows darolutamide may offer superior tolerability with lower discontinuation rates and fewer drug interactions, while emphasizing the importance of critically evaluating real-world studies by examining methodology rather than just conclusions.

The approval of darolutamide in mCSPC was supported by data from the phase 3 ARANOTE trial.

Paul E. Dato, MD, discusses how bone-targeted therapies play an important supportive role in advanced prostate cancer, with recommendations for calcium and vitamin D supplementation, vitamin K2 consideration, resistance exercises, and regular monitoring for all patients on ADT.

Panelists discuss how recent trials, including KEYNOTE-057, QUILT-3.032, and CORE-001, highlight the promising efficacy, durability, and manageable safety profiles of novel treatments like pembrolizumab, nogapendekin alfa inbakicept, and nadofaragene firadenovec, while also exploring the potential of combination therapies and novel intravesical options like TAR-200 and UGN-102 for improving outcomes in non–muscle-invasive bladder cancer (NMIBC).

Panelists discuss how the ongoing ABLE-32 and ABLE-41 trials are exploring the efficacy and safety of nadofaragene firadenovec in different NMIBC patient populations, with ABLE-32 focusing on intermediate-risk patients and ABLE-41 examining real-world effectiveness and safety.

Paul E. Dato, MD, discusses how treatment selection between triplet therapy, doublet therapy, or androgen deprivation monotherapy should be based on disease volume, risk factors, patient age, fitness for chemotherapy, and patient preferences through shared decision-making.

“Widespread adoption of the BCG plus mitomycin regimen would actually help to resolve that BCG shortage," says Professor Dickon Hayne.

The investigators assessed EFS data from the CREST trial based on subgroups stratified by disease stage.

Explore the potential of ultra-low PSA testing in managing metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, balancing accessibility and cost considerations.

Explore the latest advancements in clinical trials for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, focusing on innovative treatments and testing methods.

Emerging data on mHSPC shows promising trends in overall survival, highlighting the impact of care access and competing risks.

Panelists discuss how PET imaging for kidney cancer includes prostate-specific membrane antigen, which is sometimes expressed in renal cell carcinoma, though its utility remains unclear, whereas fluorodeoxyglucose PET can be useful for metabolic activity assessment despite limitations with inflammatory lesions.

Panelists discuss how to manage the treatment of a 68-year-old woman with painless intermittent hematuria and positive cytology for high-grade urothelial cancer, addressing gender differences in diagnosis timing, the importance of repeat transurethral resection (TURBT) procedures, BCG therapy options, and considerations for radical cystectomy with pelvic organ preservation when BCG fails.

Panelists discuss how deep learning applied to imaging data sets may advance kidney cancer assessment, though they believe the next major leap will require true molecular imaging that reveals what tumors are expressing.

This study highlights the safety of mHSPC drugs in black men, supported by both trial data and real-world evidence.
