- Deepak Kilari discusses a Phase II trial exploring the combination of enzalutamide with five alpha-reductase inhibitors (ARIs) for castrate-sensitive prostate cancer. Driven by observations from geriatric oncology, the study seeks alternatives to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for older, frail men who struggle with its side effects. The trial examines whether enzalutamide combined with dutaste...

- Zach Klaassen speaks with Mark Markowski about the advancements in AI, particularly the ArteraAI Prostate Test, and its implications for prostate cancer treatment. Dr. Markowski explains how ArteraAI has evolved from predicting treatment responses in localized prostate cancer to potentially guiding treatment decisions in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. The CHAARTED study, a pivotal t...

- Zach Klaassen and Benjamin Maughan discuss new insights into the real-world application of apalutamide in treating metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Dr. Maughan highlights the significance of achieving deep PSA responses as a key prognostic marker for patient outcomes. The OASIS project, utilizing data from diverse medical settings across the U.S., demonstrates that patients wh...

- Alicia Morgans speaks with Mary-Ellen Taplin about strategies for managing metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) patients who do not achieve optimal PSA declines. Dr. Taplin emphasizes that an unfavorable PSA decline is not synonymous with progression and highlights the prognostic value of achieving a PSA nadir below 0.2. She discusses data from various trials, such as SWOG 9346, CH...

- Alicia Morgans interviews Sandy Srinivas about her presentation on treating the primary tumor in synchronous high-volume metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Dr. Srinivas reviews key trials such as HORRAD and STAMPEDE, which indicate that radiating the primary tumor may benefit low-volume patients but not those with high-volume disease. She highlights the PEACE-1 trial, which found no sur...

- Alicia Morgans speaks with Matthew Smith about prognostic and predictive factors in treating metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). Dr. Smith explains the importance of clinical, imaging, and molecular factors in patient selection for treatment intensification. He highlights that factors like disease volume, manner of presentation, and specific genomic alterations (e.g., PTEN, P53)...

- Alicia Morgans interviews Ian Davis to discuss the challenges of sequencing treatments for patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) that have progressed to metastatic castrate-resistant disease (mCRPC). Dr. Davis emphasizes that there is no ideal sequence of treatments but identifies several less-than-ideal approaches. He highlights the importance of achieving maximum ben...

- Maria De Santis discusses managing frail patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Dr. De Santis explains the importance of defining frailty, which involves five key factors: unintended weight loss, weakness, low physical activity, difficulty lifting objects, and mobility issues. She highlights the necessity of evaluating frailty using tools like the G8 screening and emphasizes t...

- Michael Morris discusses optimal imaging standards for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. He explains that conventional imaging methods like PSA tracking are insufficient for monitoring disease progression in the era of advanced androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSIs). Dr. Morris emphasizes the need for regular imaging, recommending scans every six to twelve months to detect radi...

- Zach Klaassen discusses the EvoPAR-Prostate 01 trial with Neeraj Agarwal. The trial examines a new PARP inhibitor combined with ARPI in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, both in biomarker-positive and -negative populations. Dr. Agarwal explains the rationale based on preclinical data and previous trials like PROpel and TALAPRO-2, showing efficacy in HRR mutation-positive patients and p...
