- Neil Desai and Paul Nguyen discuss the integration of the Decipher® genomic biomarker in prostate cancer treatment. The conversation centers on two trials, NRG-GU009 and GU010, which utilize Decipher® genomic classifiers to tailor treatment intensity, particularly in hormonal therapy. Dr. Nguyen emphasizes the shift from traditional metrics like PSA and Gleason scores to more precise genomic class...

- Aditya Bagrodia hosts Daniel Spratt to discuss the complexities of gene expression classifiers in prostate cancer. Dr. Spratt's team conducted a study involving over 50,000 patients to evaluate the interchangeability of three major gene classifiers: Decipher, Oncotype, and Polaris. Contrary to common belief, the study reveals that these tests are not functionally interchangeable, showing only mode...

- Daniel Spratt engages with Amar Kishan about the role of transcriptomic profiling and PSMA PET imaging in prostate cancer. Dr. Kishan discusses a study involving 18 trials and 12,500 patients, which suggests that extra-prostatic disease is often the driver of distant metastasis in high-risk patients. The study also explores the correlation between Decipher® scores and the risk of upstaging on PSMA...

- Katie Murray and Anne Lizardi-Calvaresi discuss a clinical pathway approach for using the Decipher prostate cancer genomic classifier. Reviewing the level-one evidence described in the NCCN guidelines, they discuss best practices as clinicians integrate prostate cancer genomic classifiers into the care of their patients. They highlight how the test is integrated into the workflow for patient navig...

- Alicia Morgans and Ashley Ross discuss how the Decipher® prognostic biomarker prostate classifier is being integrated into phase II and III clinical trials, a 22-gene prognostic biomarker that provides a score that indicates the aggressiveness of an individual patient’s cancer, to help healthcare professionals more accurately categorize risk and select appropriate treatment. The pair highlights da...

- Christopher Barbieri joins Matthew Cooperberg for a discussion about the molecular biology of localized prostate cancer. Dr. Barbieri explains how the underlying molecular and genomic features that separate prostate cancer subtypes can be studied using DNA sequencing and RNA sequencing. The conversation covers predictive markers including DECIPHER, PAM50, genomic mutations, and oncogenic drivers....

- Gerhardt Attard joins Ashley Ross in discussing an ancillary study of the STAMPEDE trial assessing the clinical qualification of transcriptome signatures for advanced prostate cancer starting ADT with or without abiraterone acetate and prednisolone. The addition of abiraterone acetate and prednisolone to ADT is the standard of care for advanced prostate cancer (metastatic, M1 and high-risk non-met...

- Alicia Morgans and Ashley Ross discuss the Decipher® Biopsy genomic risk assessment test and its use prior to prostatectomy. Dr Ross shares how and why he has integrated this genomic risk stratification test into his clinical practice. The use of Decipher® allows patients to be risk stratified based upon the genomics of the tumor tissue and physicians can use the results to determine the course of...
