Clayton Lau, MD, discusses the consequences of patients delaying cancer screenings due to fears of COVID-19.

IS-002 was shown to be safe, well-tolerated, and allow for enhanced intraoperative tumor detection in patients undergoing robotic prostatectomy, according to findings from a phase 1 study.

Darolutamide plus androgen deprivation therapy and docetaxel was not associated with an increase in incidence or severity of adverse events versus androgen deprivation therapy plus docetaxel in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.
