- Kelvin Moses explores the clinical benefit of sipuleucel-T treatment in African American men with advanced prostate cancer in this conversation with Alicia Morgans. A large volume of evidence has demonstrated that African American men have an increased risk of developing mCRPC and have higher mortality as compared with Caucasian men. Sipuleucel-T has demonstrated a survival benefit in men with met...

- Alicia Morgans invites Tia Higano to discuss data analysis amongst patients with mCRPC who were enrolled in the Flatiron Health prostate cancer registry from 2013-2017. Findings include the discovery that 77% of patients receive some form of life-prolonging therapy and that only 60% of the patients ever received either denosumab or zoledronic acid. Alicia and Tia conclude by stating the importance...
