Prostate Cancer

Sexual activity, sexual desire, and physical function were improved by testosterone replacement therapy in men with hypogonadism post-prostatectomy.

Dr Stein reviews PEACE-3 data supporting radium-223 plus enzalutamide in mCRPC and the role of bone-protecting agents in this setting.

S-HIFU achieved 71% ADT-free survival at 30 months in recurrent prostate cancer post-radiation, with better outcomes in patients with lower PSA and Gleason scores.

The FDA's Oncologic Drugs Advisory Committee voted in favor 7 to 1 that benefits of capivasertib outweighed risks.

Mark Stein, MD, explores managing mHSPC through PSMA PET imaging, tumor burden assessment, and AMPLITUDE trial data while considering clinical context.

Phase 1 trial of JANX014, a PSMA-targeted T-cell engager, begins in mCRPC, building on prior safety data to expand treatment strategies.

The first patient has been dosed in a phase 1 trial (NCT05997615) of VIR-5500, a dual-masked PSMA-targeting T-cell engager for metastatic prostate cancer.

Transdermal estradiol offers fewer hot flashes and lower fracture rates, but higher rates of gynecomastia, as it meets the noninferiority bar against LHRH agonists.

Early results from TALAPRO-3 suggest that the combination of talazoparib and enzalutamide may redefine the treatment paradigm for HRR gene-mutated mCSPC, demonstrating that targeting DNA damage repair earlier in the disease course substantially delays radiographic progression.

A phase 3 trial evaluating TLX591-Tx (lutetium-177 (177Lu) rosopatamab tetraxetan) showed positive safety and toxicity profile in prostate cancer.

The FDA approves a new formulation of piflufolastat F 18, enhancing prostate cancer imaging with improved efficiency and patient access.

CAPItello-281 shows capivasertib plus abiraterone extends rPFS in PTEN-deficient mHSPC with manageable toxicity and preserved overall quality of life.

Short-course enzalutamide in recurrent prostate cancer slashes PSA, but PSMA-PET tumor volume misleads, raising overtreatment concerns.

PEACE-2 finds adding cabazitaxel to ADT plus radiotherapy fails to improve survival in high-risk localized prostate cancer, while increasing severe toxicities and deaths.

Phase 2 Daro-PET tests short-course darolutamide to boost PSMA PET signal in high-risk localized prostate cancer, guiding improved imaging interpretation.

Findings from the phase 1 PAnTHA study demonstrate that actinium-225 was well tolerated with encouraging responses in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

PEACE-3 data show enzalutamide plus radium-223 extends survival and delays progression in bone-predominant mCRPC, with manageable added toxicity.

The phase 2 BRCAAway trial demonstrated that abiraterone acetate, prednisone, and olaparib significantly improves progression-free survival and overall survival compared with either agent used alone or sequentially in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer harboring BRCA1/2 or ATM alterations.

Final overall survival data for PEACE-3 (NCT02194842) evaluating the combination of enzalutamide (Xtandi) and radium-223 (Xofigo) will be presented at the 2026 ASCO GU Cancers Symposium.

Actinium-225 is a targeted and highly-potent alpha emitter that holds promise for patients who do not respond to lutetium-177 therapy.

Bone-protecting therapies are an important part of delivering optimal care in patients with prostate cancer who are treated with androgen-deprivation therapy.

The 5-mg dose of oxybutynin reduced the frequency and severity of hot flashes in men with prostate cancer undergoing treatment with androgen-deprivation therapy compared with placebo.

New ASCO Living Guidelines on prostate cancer emphasize first-line therapies, bone protection, and the growing role of genetic testing.
