Treatment Patterns and Overall Survival in Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer from 2006 to 2019
|
Stephen Freedland, MD
|
Stephen Freedland presented real-world data assessing treatment patterns and survival among patients with mCSPC. OS improvement in men with mCSPC coincided with the introduction of novel hormonal therapies in mCRPC and docetaxel and novel hormonal therapies in mCSPC. However, only 20% of patients with mCSPC received treatment intensification with docetaxel or novel hormonal therapies in the most recent time period (2015-2019), suggesting there is room for significant survival improvement in this population.

Phase 2 Neoadjuvant Trial of the anti–B7-H3 Antibody, Enoblituzumab, in Men with Localized Prostate Cancer: Safety, Efficacy, and Immune Correlates |
Eugene Shenderov, MD, Ph.D. |
Eugene Shenderov presented results of a phase 2 trial of the anti–B7-H3 antibody, enoblituzumab, in men with localized prostate cancer. B7-H3, a member of the B7 superfamily, is highly expressed in prostate cancer. Further, its expression is prognostic as it is associated with rapid biochemical recurrence and early metastases. Enoblituzumab is an investigational humanized Fc-optimized B7-H3–targeting antibody that induces antibody-dependent cellular cytotoxicity. |
