- The CARD study was a head-to-head comparison of cabazitaxel chemotherapy versus either abiraterone or enzalutamide in mCRPC patients who had been exposed to one series of the docetaxel chemotherapy cycle and the alternative AR-targeted agents. There was a 30% reduction in the risk of death by cabazitaxel chemotherapy. This data was presented at the 2019 ESMO meeting by Ronald de Wit, MD, Ph.D. In...

- Emmanuel Antonarakis joins Charles Ryan highlighting the first randomized study to assess high-dose testosterone as a treatment for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). TRANSFORMER (Testosterone Revival Abolishes Negative Symptoms, Fosters Objective Response and Modulates Enzalutamide Resistance) was led by Dr. Samuel R. Denmeade at Johns Hopkins School of Medicine – Sidney Kim...

- In a comprehensive discussion led by Charles Ryan, James Gulley delves into the role of genomic testing and immunotherapy in treating prostate cancer. Dr. Gulley emphasizes the importance of personalized treatment, highlighting studies that identify specific genomic markers like homologous recombination deficiency and mismatch repair deficiency. These markers can guide the use of targeted therapie...

- In a comprehensive discussion between Charles Ryan and Kenneth Pienta, the focus is on the tumor microenvironment in prostate cancer. Dr. Pienta describes the tumor microenvironment as an ecological system, emphasizing the interactions between cancer cells and various other cell types. He argues that current treatments, including immunotherapies, must be understood in the context of this microenvi...

- Treatment options in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have soft-tissue progression after second-generation anti-androgen therapies are limited. Single-agent studies of cabozantinib, a tyrosine kinase inhibitor (TKI) that regulates cell growth, angiogenesis, and immune cell regulation, and the anti-PD-L1 antibody atezolizumab each showed limited efficacy as monotherapy. (...

- Tanya Dorff joins Alicia Morgans discussing recent updates to the NCCN guidelines for systemic therapies in the treatment of M1 prostate cancer. The CARD trial was a multicenter, randomized, open-label study that enrolled men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) between 2015 and 2018. Patients were eligible if they had evidence of symptomatic progressive disease within 12 m...

- AMG 160 is a half-life extended (HLE) BiTE® molecule designed to engage the patient’s own T cells with PSMA on prostate cancer cells, activating the cytotoxic potential of T cells to eliminate cancer. In this conversation with Alicia Morgans, MD, MPH, Medical Oncologist, Researcher, and co-investigator on the first in human, interim results of a phase 1 study of AMG 160, Tanya Dorff, MD from the C...
