T-Cell Engagers in Prostate Cancer Treatment - Neeraj Agarwal

Details
Alicia Morgans interviews Neeraj Agarwal about his presentation on T-cell engaging treatments for prostate cancer. Dr. Agarwal discusses the rationale behind T-cell engagers, their potential to bypass the limitations of prostate cancer's cold tumor microenvironment, and the various tumor-associated antigens being targeted. He reviews several bispecific and trispecific T-cell engagers currently in...

SPLASH Trial Highlights Radiopharmaceutical Lutetium-177’s Role in Advanced Prostate Cancer Treatment - Oliver Sartor

Details
Oliver Sartor discusses the SPLASH trial results, evaluating Lutetium-177-PNT2002 in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients who progressed on ARPI therapy. The study shows significant improvement in radiographic progression-free survival for Lutetium-177-PNT2002 compared to alternate ARPI therapy, with a hazard ratio of 0.71. Dr. Sartor highlights the favorable safety profile and...

STORM Trial Examines Elective Nodal Radiotherapy in Treating Prostate Cancer Recurrence - Piet Ost

Details
Piet Ost discusses the STORM trial, a randomized study comparing stereotactic body radiotherapy (SBRT) with elective nodal radiotherapy (ENRT) in oligometastatic prostate cancer patients. The trial, involving 80% PSMA-PET scanned patients, includes six months of androgen deprivation therapy in both arms. Results show significant benefits for ENRT in biochemical recurrence-free survival and locoreg...

Overcoming Hormone Resistance: ARV-766 in Advanced Prostate Cancer - Daniel Petrylak

Details
David Crawford discusses with Daniel Petrylak a new approach to treating advanced prostate cancer using a PROTAC agent called ARV-766. Dr. Petrylak explains that PROTACs accelerate the body's natural protein disposal process, targeting the androgen receptor. The phase I/II study of ARV-766 shows promising results in patients with ligand-binding domain mutations, which occur in about 25% of cases....

2024 NCCN Guidelines: Managing Bone Health in Prostate Cancer Patients - Rashid Sayyid & Zachary Klaassen

Details
Rashid Sayyid and Zach Klaassen review the 2024 NCCN prostate cancer guideline updates focusing on treatment-related bone loss in patients on androgen deprivation therapy (ADT). They emphasize the importance of addressing bone health due to increased fracture risk associated with ADT. The speakers outline a comprehensive approach to bone health management, including risk assessment using the FRAX...

2024 NCCN Guidelines: Preventing Skeletal Events in Prostate Cancer - Rashid Sayyid & Zachary Klaassen

Details
Rashid Sayyid and Zach Klaassen review the NCCN prostate cancer guideline updates regarding the prevention of symptomatic skeletal-related events in bone metastatic CRPC patients. They discuss the efficacy and safety profiles of denosumab and zoledronic acid, highlighting key clinical trials that have shaped current recommendations. The speakers emphasize the importance of considering dosing frequ...

Cell Surface Targets in mCRPC: Expression Landscape and Therapeutic Potential - Michael Haffner

Details
Andrea Miyahira interviews Michael Haffner about his group's study on the expression of TROP2, CEACAM5, and DLL3 in metastatic prostate cancer, published in NEJM Evidence. Dr. Haffner discusses their analysis of over 750 samples from 52 patients in a rapid autopsy cohort, examining protein expression across different molecular subtypes of castration-resistant prostate cancer. The study reveals dis...

PSMAfore Trial: Lutetium PSMA's Impact on mCRPC Quality of Life - Karim Fizazi

Details
Alicia Morgans interviews Karim Fizazi about the updated survival and quality of life data from the PSMAfore trial. The study compares lutetium PSMA to second-line AR pathway inhibitors in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer patients who have progressed after one AR pathway inhibitor. Dr. Fizazi discusses the trial's findings, highlighting a significant improvement in radiographic prog...

ctDNA Fraction Predicts Response to Lutetium PSMA in TheraP Trial for mCRPC - Edmond Kwan

Details
Edmond Kwan discusses his latest research on circulating tumor DNA (ctDNA) as a predictive marker for response to Lutetium PSMA-617 versus cabazitaxel. The Phase II TheraP trial compared these treatments in patients with advanced metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, utilizing dual imaging selection. Dr. Kwan highlights that ctDNA fraction, the proportion of tumor-derived DNA in circula...

ARV-766: Efficacy and Safety of a Second-Generation AR Degrader in Prostate Cancer - Daniel Petrylak

Details
Alicia Morgans speaks with Dan Petrylak about his phase 1 study on a new androgen receptor (AR) degrader, ARV-766. This study explores the potential of AR degraders to effectively target and dismantle androgen receptors in prostate cancer cells, particularly those resistant to conventional therapies. Dr. Petrylak highlights the journey of ARV-766, a second-generation PROTAC drug designed to degrad...
