Prostate Cancer

Updated safety findings may support the ARASAFE regimen as a potential standard of care in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.

The novel PET imaging agent detected significantly more PSMA-positive prostate cancer lesions vs SOC in patients with low PSA levels.

Data from the AMPLITUDE trial may support widespread genomic testing at diagnosis to inform targeted therapy strategies for those with CSPC.

The 10-year biochemical DFS rate was 86% with EBRT plus focal boost vs 71% with standard EBRT in those with intermediate- and high-risk prostate cancer.

Imaging developments have made it possible to detect nodal recurrence at low PSA levels, which could help guide salvage approaches for prostate cancer.

RLT-based combinations, RLTs across genitourinary cancers, and RLTs in earlier lines of therapy are among the considerations for further research.

Grade 2 or higher genitourinary acute toxicity was observed in 27.3% of patients treated with 2 fractions of SBRT vs 29.2% of patients treated with 5 fractions.

SBRT achieved a 5-year DFS rate of 89% vs 92% with moderately hypofractionated IMRT in patients with intermediate-risk prostate cancer.

The addition of 177Lu-PNT2002 did not significantly increase toxicity in patients with oligorecurrent prostate cancer who received SBRT.

Apalutamide plus stereotactic radiotherapy may be effective for certain patients with recurrent prostate cancer following radical prostatectomy.

In an interim safety analysis, no dose-limiting toxicities, unexpected AEs, or grade 3/4 AEs were reported in 10 patients treated for metastatic CRPC.

Results from a phase 3 trial led to the approval of leuprolide mesylate as a 3-month formulation for patients with advanced prostate cancer.

Developers are enrolling those with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer on a phase 1/2 trial to assess the safety and tolerability of HLD-0915.

The new formulation should increase the batch size by approximately 50% and will offer the potential to expand access to patients in new geographic locations.

Developers plan to initiate a phase 2b trial in patients with less severe prostate cancer variants to better assess INKmune’s antitumor effects.

Findings from the phase 3 TALAPRO-2 trial showed that the safety profile of talazoparib was consistent with its known profile in metastatic CRPC.

No dose-limiting toxicities or unexpected adverse effects occurred with carotuximab/apalutamide in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

More detailed overall survival results from the phase 3 EMBARK trial for patients with nmHSPC will be shared at an upcoming medical conference.

Gedatolisib showed promising ORRs when given in combination with darolutamide and trastuzumab biosimilar in mCRPC and mBC, respectively.

225Ac-LNC1011 targeted α therapy elicited an ORR of 50.0% in patients with PSMA-positive prostate cancer in a phase 1 trial.

Results from a retrospective study show that 177Lu-PSMA-617 retreatment led to a median OS of 14.5 months in castration-resistant prostate cancer.

The FDA did not expand the indication to include patients with non–homologous recombination repair gene mutated castration-resistant prostate cancer.

The combination of olaparib and radium-223 improved rPFS in castration-resistant prostate cancer without prior docetaxel treatment or with fewer than 20 bone metastases.

Results from the phase 3 ARANOTE trial demonstrated a statistically meaningful improvement to rPFS with darolutamide vs placebo.

The addition of CAN-2409 to a prodrug and radiation therapy in intermediate-to-high-risk prostate cancer significantly improved cancer-specific outcomes.

Niraparib plus abiraterone acetate and prednisone significantly reduced the risk of symptomatic progression in patients with BRCA-mutated metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer.

SBRT did not significantly impact response when added to nivolumab/ipilimumab for patients with mCRPC.

Full results from the phase 3 trial supporting CAN-2409 plus valacyclovir and radiation therapy in this indication will be presented at the 2025 ASCO Annual Meeting.

Decipher Prostate, Oncotype DX, and Prolaris are 3 gene expression testing options for patients with prostate cancers. Read as experts discuss them.
