- Martin Sjöström discusses his groundbreaking research on liquid biopsy biomarkers in prostate cancer. Dr. Sjöström’s team is developing a platform that uses the epigenetic modification, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), found in cell-free DNA circulating in the blood, to predict a patient's response to therapy and detect treatment resistance earlier. The novel approach provides broader and more comp...

- Rahul Aggarwal speaks with Alicia Morgans about the completed phase III trial AFT-19 for high-risk biochemically relapsed prostate cancer patients. The trial explored three arms: ADT alone, ADT plus apalutamide, and a triplet of ADT, apalutamide, and abiraterone, with a primary endpoint of PSA progression-free survival. Results showed significant prolongation of PSA progression-free survival in bo...

- In this discussion, Susan Slovin and Alicia Morgans discuss the incorporation of PSMA PET imaging and emerging treatments like lutetium-177-PSMA in genitourinary oncology. Referencing ASCO 2022 talks and clinical trials, particularly Dr. Mike Hofman's study comparing lutetium-PSMA and cabazitaxel post-docetaxel, they review three-year data showing no significant difference in overall survival betw...

- Alicia Morgans speaks with Oliver Sartor about the SPLASH trial and advances in radioligand therapy. The SPLASH trial involves PSMA I&T Lutetium-177 (renamed PNT2002) for pre-chemo, metastatic CRPC patients, with some differences in dose and schedule compared to PSMA 617. In the lead-in study involving 27 PSMA PET-selected patients, the initial PSA 50 response rate was 40%, and the radiographic re...
