Prostate Cancer

Fred Saad, MD, discussed findings from the phase 3 ARANOTE and ARASENS trials.

67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA is indicated for adult patients with prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Treatment selection includes patient factors, cost, adverse effects, and drug interactions.

The data were presented at the 2025 ASCO Genitourinary Cancers Symposium in San Francisco, California.

Talazoparib in combination with enzalutamide yielded significant improvements in radiographic progression-free survival and overall survival.

Pharmacists play a vital role in cancer prevention and early detection by educating patients on risk factors, counseling on screening guidelines, and promoting adherence to evidence-based recommendations for common cancers, such as breast, cervical, colorectal, lung, prostate, and skin cancer.

The radiation emerging from these isotopes can be used in 2 different ways in cancer trials: imaging (detection of tumors) and therapy (destruction of tumors).

The supplemental new drug application (sNDA) is based on results from a phase 3 trial that enrolled patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC).

White button mushroom can rebuild anti-cancer immune defense while slowing cancer growth.

Apalutamide is a hormone therapy indicated for men with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC).

These companion diagnostics are poised to provide simpler and detailed insights into a patient’s genomic alternations, which could improve outcomes for patients with prostate cancer.

The proposed diagnostic agent has a long half-life, enables imaging the next day, and correlates to a longer shelf life in the pharmacy.

FoundationOne Liquid CDx can be used to identify niraparib and abiraterone acetate eligibility in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

The designation was approved based on interim data from a phase 1 study that assessed SV-102 among males with metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Precision oncology represents an evolution in therapeutic practice.

These combination therapies have demonstrated longer PFS with a tolerable AE profile.

The approval makes enzalutamide the first and only androgen receptor-signaling inhibitor approved for the treatment of nonmetastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer with biochemical recurrence at high risk for metastatic.

With precision medicine, patients undergoing treatment are living longer without disease recurrence or progression and with fewer adverse effects, resulting in preservation of quality of life.

According to investigators, additional research is necessary to further understand how lutetium impacts overall survival in patients with metastatic prostate cancer.

Investigators found an approximately 23% decrease in overall cancer incidence in April 2020, specifically for breast, colon, rectal, head and neck cancers, as well as melanoma and endocrine cancer diagnoses.

AACR has urged Congress to provide billions more in funding for cancer research, prevention efforts, and expedited review of cancer-related medical products.

Precision medicine in pharmacy has the potential to revolutionize patient care by optimizing drug selection, dosing, and monitoring.

Patients with cancer and survivors of cancer that had engaged in administrative tasks to effectively estimate costs or pay for care was associated with an 18% increase in cost-related treatment delays or treatment nonadherence.

Investigators found that artificial intelligence chatbots did not consistently provide recommendations for cancer treatment that correspond with NCCN guidelines.

The research was aided by the Decipher Genomics Resource for Intelligent Discovery, which helped derive the gene signatures used during the analysis.
