Prostate Cancer

Clinical, Pathologic, and Imaging Variables Associated with Prostate Cancer Detection by PSMA PET/CT and Multiparametric MRI.

Multiparametric MRI (mpMRI) and prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT are complementary imaging modalities used in the presurgical evaluation of patients with prostate cancer (PCa). The purpose of this study was to characterize clinically significant PCa (csPCa) detected and not detected by PSMA PET/CT and mpMRI, focusing on tumors detected solely by PSMA PET/CT and overlooked by mpMRI.

FAP and PSMA Expression by Immunohistochemistry and PET Imaging in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: A Translational Pilot Study.

Prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is a theranostic target for metastatic prostate cancer (PCa). However, castration-resistant PCa (CRPC) may lose PSMA expression after systemic therapy. Fibroblast activation protein (FAP), expressed by carcinoma-associated fibroblasts in various cancer types, including PCa, has the potential to be an alternative target.

Comparison of Posttherapy 4- and 24-Hour [177Lu]Lu-PSMA SPECT/CT and Pretherapy PSMA PET/CT in Assessment of Disease in Men with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.

[177Lu]Lu-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) is an effective treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). [177Lu]Lu-PSMA SPECT/CT 24 h after injection has shown potential as a response biomarker for [177Lu]Lu-PSMA therapy but is not convenient for patients.

Outcomes for Patients with Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer and Liver Metastasis Receiving [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617.

It is well known that patients with liver metastasis from metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer have poor or only transient responses to many forms of systemic therapy. Data on outcomes after treatment with [177Lu]Lu-PSMA-617 (LuPSMA) are scarce.

PSMA PET/CT Accuracy in Diagnosing Prostate Cancer Nodes Metastases.

This study aimed to evaluate the diagnostic accuracy of prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-directed positron emission tomography/computed tomography (PET/CT) in pelvic nodal staging, using postoperative histopathology data as the reference standard.

Adiposity and Muscle Strength in Men With Prostate Cancer and Cardiovascular Outcomes.

There are limited data on the physical effects of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer (PC), and on the relationships of such measures of adiposity and strength to cardiovascular outcomes.

A Phase I Trial of Image-Guided, Risk-Volume-Adapted Post-Prostatectomy Radiotherapy - Beyond the Abstract

Given migrating surgical practice patterns, a growing number of patients now require post-operative radiotherapy. Similar to intact prostate cancer, enthusiasm is growing for the use of hypofractionated post-operative radiotherapy (PORT) which has been enabled by modern advancements in radiotherapy. Simultaneously, the recognition of a new subset of patients with an imaging-identified local recurrence in the operative bed has emerged with the uptake of PSMA-based PET/CT and operative bed MRIs.

Prostate-specific Antigen at 3 Months as a Predictor of Radiologic Progression-free Survival in Metastatic Hormone-sensitive Prostate Cancer Treated with Apalutamide: Analysis of 633 Patients in a Real-world Database.

The depth of the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decline after androgen receptor pathway inhibitor (ARPI) treatment combined with androgen deprivation therapy for patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) may affect prognosis.

Incidence and mortality of prostate cancer in France from 2010 to 2021, using a real-life database (National Health Data System - SNDS) - the CaPCo Study.

Prostate cancer (PCa) was the leading incident cancer and 3rd leading cause of cancer death in men in France in 2015 with inter-regional disparities. The objectives were to describe PCa incidence and mortality in France and by region, using real life data from the National Health Data System and to identify the factors associated with all-cause or PCa-specific mortality.

Docetaxel Versus Androgen-Receptor Signaling Inhibitors (ARSI) as Second-Line Therapy After Failure of First-Line Alternative ARSI for the Elderly ≥ 75 Years Old With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (mCRPC): A SPARTACUSS-Meet-URO 26 Real-W

Androgen receptor signalling inhibitors (ARSIs) abiraterone acetate (AA) enzalutamide (Enza), are currently the standard first-line (L1) treatments for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), and docetaxel (D) is reserved as second-line (L2) after ARSI failure.
