Interim phase 3 data show a 58% reduction in the risk of metastasis or death with the addition of darolutamide to ADT + radiation.

Carlos A. Vargas, MD, discusses updated survival outcomes, safety, and the mechanism of SYNC-T SV-102, an investigational in situ immunotherapy for metastatic prostate cancer.

Perioperative durvalumab (Imfinzi) plus neoadjuvant enfortumab vedotin-ejfv (Padcev) cut the risk of EFS events by 49% and death by 42% in cisplatin-ineligible MIBC.

The PROTEUS substudy addresses a key limitation of the main study, which had no surgery-alone control arm.

At a median follow-up of 60.9 months, median EFS was 74.1 months in the pembrolizumab arm and not reached in the placebo arm.

The phase 1/2 CELC-G-201 study found preliminary antitumor activity and manageable toxicity with gedatolisib plus darolutamide in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Kim Chi, MD, FRCPC, discusses the rationale and design of the phase 3 KLK2-comPAS trial evaluating pasritamig alone and in combination with JNJ-9401 in patients with mCRPC.
