Roberto Pili, MD, professor of oncology, chief, genitourinary section leader, Genitourinary Program, Department of Medicine, Roswell Park Cancer Center, discusses the possibility of using a HDAC/mTOR inhibitor combination as a treatment option for patients with prostate cancer.
Clinical Pearls:
- There is an unmet need for a novel agent that has a direct effect on the survival pathway in prostate cancer
- mTOR is one of the recognized pathways in prostate cancer and clinical data suggests mTOR inhibitors demonstrate activity in patients with prostate cancer
- Combining mTOR and HDAC inhibitors may be a more effective way to develop an mTOR inhibitor
