- Massimo (Max) Loda discusses his team’s research on the role of the microenvironment in prostate cancer progression, published in Nature Communications. The study focuses on the stroma's significance in prostate carcinogenesis. Utilizing mouse models and human tumors, they performed single-cell RNA sequencing to analyze stromal cells in different stages of prostate cancer. The research revealed di...

- Zachary Klaassen interviews Henrik Grönberg about the ProBio trial, presented at ESMO 2023. The ProBio trial, designed in 2019, is a platform trial aimed at determining the optimal treatment sequence for metastatic prostate cancer and identifying predictive biomarkers for treatment efficacy. Unique to ProBio is its use of circulating tumor DNA as a biomarker for assigning patients to experimental...

- We conducted a study to assess the safety and efficacy of relugolix combined with abiraterone acetate or apalutamide. We presented results from this ongoing, two-part, Phase I, 52-week, open-label cohort study in patients with advanced prostate cancer (NCT04666129), which evaluated relugolix in combination with abiraterone acetate and a corticosteroid (prednisone or methylprednisolone) in Part 1,...

- Rashid Sayyid and Zach Klaassen discuss the amended AUA guidelines for advanced prostate cancer, focusing on triplet therapy for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) and non-metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (M0 CRPC). They delve into the role of triplet therapy in mHSPC, examining its benefits across disease volume and risk subgroups, as evidenced by the ARASENS and PE...

- Whether disease burden in patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) predicts treatment outcomes is unknown. We assessed apalutamide treatment effect in TITAN patients with mCSPC by disease volume, metastasis number and timing of metastasis presentation. Biographies: Axel S. Merseburger, MD, PhD, University Hospital Schleswig-Holstein, Campus Lübeck, Lübeck, Germany Rela...

- Jacob Orme and Emmanuel Antonarakis discuss their study on the use of PARP inhibitors in metastatic prostate cancer patients with BRCA2 and SPOP mutations. Dr. Antonarakis shares the study's genesis, rooted in his clinical observation of exceptional responses to PARP inhibitors in patients with these mutations. The study, involving 131 patients across 13 international sites, reveals that patients...

- Alicia Morgans speaks with Louise Emmett about the ENZA-p study, presented at ESMO 2023. This groundbreaking research explores the combination of lutetium and enzalutamide in treating early metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer. Patients, previously showing limited response to enzalutamide, were screened with PSMA PET and randomized to receive either enzalutamide alone or combined with lut...

- Gerhardt Attard discusses advancing the treatment of advanced hormone-sensitive prostate cancer through biological research. Dr. Attard's work focuses on two main areas: analyzing tumor samples from clinical trials to understand the biology driving cancer aggressiveness and identifying new therapeutic targets. He emphasizes the need for prognostic tests to tailor treatments, especially considering...

- Kevin Kelly discusses a groundbreaking approach to prostate cancer treatment with Alicia Morgans. He presents Xaluritamig (AMG 509) a novel bi-specific antibody targeting the STEAP1 protein, prevalent in prostate cancer cells. This innovative therapy, a form of biTE therapy, is designed to attract T-cells for targeted cytotoxicity. In a phase one trial involving advanced prostate cancer patients w...
