“I think that there's certainly recognition that HoLEP is a procedure that can be self-taught and learned. But I think the learning curve is significantly shortened if you're mentored and certainly if you're fellowship trained,” says Nicole L. Miller, MD, FACS.

“Several years ago, we eliminated the high stakes component of our exam and made it into more of an educational process,” says David Joseph, MD.

In their study, Joshua Halpern, MD, and co-investigators examined the link between low testosterone and frailty in veterans undergoing cancer surgery.

Sumanta K. Pal, MD, highlights next steps now that the combination of cabozantinib and atezolizumab showed promising clinical activity in bladder cancer in the phase 1b COSMIC-021 trial.

“What made [multichannel urodynamics] so important is you're able to diagnose things much better; you're able to have a much better understanding of what's actually going on,” says Howard B. Goldman, MD, FACS.

Pal highlights results from the phase 1b COSMIC-021 trial in which cabozantinib plus atezolizumab showed promising clinical activity in patients with urothelial carcinoma.

The ENZAMET study explored enzalutamide in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.

“For patients who are several years out from treatment for bladder cancer or kidney cancer, I don't think [the shortage is] going to have a clinical impact. For more acute settings, I have tried to rely a little bit more on MR urograms and ultrasound,” says Yair Lotan, MD.

Lead author Ian Davis, MBBS, PhD, discusses the results of the ENZAMET study update he shared during the 2022 ASCO Annual Meeting.

“I think immunotherapy in the neoadjuvant and also in the BCG-unresponsive setting are here to stay,” says Roger Li, MD.

Rao is an investigator on the ongoing phase 3 CASPAR trial exploring the AR pathway inhibitor enzalutamide combined with the PARP inhibitor rucaparib in patients with mCRPC.

"It's not perfect; you have to sort of retrain it, and there are some downsides to it. But it's the closest that we can get to, essentially, an artificial bladder," says Eila C. Skinner, MD.

“We found in ARCHES that in the men who developed radiographic progression while on ADT-enzalutamide [Xtandi], two thirds of these patients, when they had radiographic progression, did not meet PSA progression criteria, and one third didn't have any rise at all in their PSA,” says Andrew J. Armstrong, MD, MSc.

Based on the efficacy of the LITESPARK-001 study, the phase 3 LITESPARK-005 study of belzutifan has already been launched, says Eric Jonasch, MD.

“This analysis has a median follow-up of 41 months,” says Jonasch.

The new findings, “further support the use of adjuvant pembrolizumab after nephrectomy as a standard of care in patients with localized renal cell carcinoma at increased risk for recurrence,” says Toni K. Choueiri, MD.

In this video, Adam S. Kibel, MD, discusses the development of transrectal ultrasound-guided prostate biopsy and how prostate biopsy has continued to evolve over the years.

“What would be wonderful is to have a strong, smart triaging system,” says Shirley Lee, CRNP-FNP, MPH.

“I think the one thing that we're hopeful for is that people will start to look at vitamin D as a potential chemoprevention agent,” says Adam B. Murphy, MD, MBA, MSCI.

“Our main finding was that participants who reported food insecurity in the past year were 65%, more likely to experience urge incontinence compared to those who were food secure,” says Chihiro Okada.

Prostate cancer experts highlight some closing thoughts and exciting research in progress on prostate cancer imaging.

Neal Shore, MD, FACS, reviews the VISION clinical trial in prostate cancer imaging.

A look at the patient profile of a 62-year-old man presenting with reduced urinary flow and hematuria.

"In trying to localize and focalize the treatment on just the lesion of prostate cancer, HIFU was incredibly powerful in the sense that it really allowed you to do that with great precision," said Jennifer Linehan, MD.

"We wanted to implement an opioid minimization pathway that was easy to follow and successful,” says Aaron Laviana, MD.
