- Noel Clarke presented on the optimization of the treatment of newly diagnosed metastatic prostate cancer at the 2019 Advanced Prostate Cancer Consensus Conference (APCCC). Among the topics he covers in this presentation include the STAMPEDE biomedical imaging group (BIG) and STAMPEDE biomedical research group (BRG) which have incorporated 5,000 CT and bone scans with a target of more than 10,000,...

- Howard Scher presents an overview of treatment options for non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, (nmCRPC), those patients who never had detectable metastases on “conventional/standard” imaging, which includes a radionuclide bone scan and CT abdomen/pelvis +/- and MRI. These patients are generally asymptomatic from cancer itself with some symptoms from prior therapies. Importantly, t...

- Maha Hussain presents during the Management of Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC) debate at the Advanced Prostate Cancer Consensus Conference (APCCC) 2019. Dr. Hussain focuses on the "pros" of treating men with non-metastatic CRPC while revisiting the transformation of the field back to 2011 where stood an area of unmet need. The past 18 months have seen the reporting and FDA approval of...

- Fred Saad joins Alicia Morgans to discuss the quality of life data from the ARAMIS trial. The data suggest that adding darolutamide (systemic therapy) to ADT compared to ADT alone improves quality of life in the patients, and these include bowel and urinary symptom benefits along with the skeletal outcomes and quality-of-life measures. The ARAMIS study suggests that androgen receptor antagonist da...

- Karim Fizazi and Alicia Morgans discuss a follow-up on the quality of life parameters evaluated in the ARAMIS trial. Darolutamide was also associated with benefits with regard to all secondary end points, including overall survival, time to pain progression, time to cytotoxic chemotherapy, and time to a symptomatic skeletal-related event. The incidence of adverse events that occurred or worsened d...

- Petros Grivas discussed Neeraj Agarwal's insights about the latest prostate cancer study results that will impact patient care as presented at ASCO GU 2019. The ARAMIS trial evaluated the efficacy of darolutamide for delaying metastasis and death in men with nonmetastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer. Darolutamide is a structurally unique androgen-receptor antagonist that is under develop...

- Karim Fizazi discusses the efficacy and safety of darolutamide with Alicia Morgans. The ARAMIS trial evaluated the efficacy of darolutamide for delaying metastasis and death in men with nonmetastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC). Darolutamide is a structurally unique androgen-receptor antagonist that is under development for the treatment of prostate cancer. In total, 1509 patien...

- In this interview, Fred Saad reviews current and new agents showing benefit in the nonmetastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) space and where the treatment paradigm stands in 2019 since data release in 2018. In addition, Fred makes the case for earlier treatment in nmCRPC patients and how targeting the androgen receptor is extremely effective which leads to better survival rates and...
