Cardiovascular Disease Risk in Men with Prostate Cancer

We preview several noteworthy P2 presentations in the urologic oncology space.

In this podcast episode, Adam B. Murphy, MD, MBA, MSCI, discusses the need to increase diversity in clinical trials, specifically focusing on studies in prostate cancer.

The first patient in the trial will be receiving 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in combination with enzalutamide.

Zeyad Schwen, MD, a urologic oncologist at Cleveland Clinic, discusses how patient factors and cancer characteristics are key to deciding between focal therapies and whole gland treatment for prostate cancer.

"Building on decades of research into the genetic markers of prostate cancer, our study shows that the theory does work in practice—we can identify men at risk of aggressive cancers who need further tests and spare the men who are at lower risk from unnecessary treatments," says professor Ros Eeles.

"This finding reinforces PROSTOX ultra as a true measure of the biological response to radiation, independent of treatment era or technique that can identify the safest course of treatment to avoid toxicity," says Amar U. Kishan, MD.
