Jack R. Andrews, MD; Alicia Morgans, MD, MPH; and Murilo de Almeida Luz, MD, discuss how ultralow prostate-specific antigen thresholds (below 0.02) serve as important prognostic biomarkers in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, with recent post hoc analyses from the ARANOTE trial showing that patients achieving these ultralow levels with combination androgen deprivation therapy plus darolutamide therapy have significantly better radiographic progression-free survival and time to castration-resistant disease compared with those who don't reach these thresholds.

Panelists discuss how the FDA-approved gemcitabine intravesical system (Inlexzo/TAR-200) represents a breakthrough in Bacillus Calmette-Guérin (BCG)-unresponsive bladder cancer treatment through its unique continuous drug delivery mechanism that provides sustained release over 3 weeks, requiring only 10% of traditional gemcitabine dosing while improving patient convenience and potentially reducing adverse effects.

An expert discusses how decision-making for minimally invasive benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) therapies has evolved over the past decade to position these treatments earlier in the algorithm (sometimes before long-term medication), emphasizing shared decision-making that considers patient factors such as age, desire to preserve sexual function, medication adherence, and lifestyle preferences rather than following a rigid treatment sequence.

An expert discusses how the current benign prostatic hyperplasia (BPH) treatment landscape is dominated by traditional approaches such as watchful waiting and medical therapy (particularly α-blockers as first-line treatment). However, minimally invasive therapies such as prostatic urethral lift, water vapor therapy, and temporary stents have emerged over the past decade as office-based options that bridge the gap between lifelong medications and more invasive surgeries while preserving sexual function.
