Nascent Prostate Cancer Heterogeneity Drives Evolution and Resistance to Intense Hormonal Therapy

Nascent Prostate Cancer Heterogeneity Drives Evolution and Resistance to Intense Hormonal Therapy Patients diagnosed with high risk localized prostate cancer have variable outcomes following surgery. Trials of intense neoadjuvant androgen deprivation therapy (NADT) have shown lower rates of recurrence among patients with minimal residual disease after treatment. The molecular features that distinguish exceptional responders from […]

Rezvilutamide Bests Bicalutamide in Metastatic Prostate Cancer

Rezvilutamide Bests Bicalutamide in Metastatic Prostate Cancer In combination with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), the novel androgen-receptor inhibitor rezvilutamide significantly improved radiographic progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) compared with bicalutamide (Casodex) in patients with high-volume, metastatic, hormone-sensitive prostate cancer, the phase III CHART trial showed. Among 654 mostly Asian patients, median radiographic PFS […]

When Is ADT Right for Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer?

When Is ADT Right for Biochemically Recurrent Prostate Cancer? Men with prostate cancer and biochemical recurrence (BCR) who delayed androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) still experienced long survival outcomes, researchers reported. In a retrospective study, men with a prostate-specific antigen doubling time (PSADT) of less than 10 months saw a median metastases-free survival (MFS) of 192 […]
