An analysis of NRG/RTOG 0815 found Decipher predicted distant metastasis risk and identified patients with greater benefit from short-term ADT.

Exploratory analyses suggest persistent immune remodeling after aglatimagene plus radiation in localized prostate cancer.

Brian Mazzarella, MD, discusses the landscape for intermediate-risk prostate cancer and early VAPOR 2 findings on water vapor ablation.

The phase 3 BiPASS trial is evaluating the use of 68Ga-PSMA-PET in combination with MRI for pre-biopsy prostate cancer detection.

In RTOG 3506, adding enzalutamide to standard ADT and salvage radiotherapy was associated with 2-year PFS benefit.

In the phase 3 PACE-A trial, SBRT and prostatectomy showed similar 8-year disease control in localized prostate cancer, with lower rates of urinary incontinence after SBRT.

Using PSMA-PET imaging and genomic testing to obtain better information earlier in the disease course changes what clinicians can do with diagnosis and treatment planning.
