Prostate Cancer

Androgen receptor splice variants drive castration-resistant prostate cancer metastasis by activating distinct transcriptional programs.

One critical mechanism through which prostate cancer (PCa) adapts to treatments targeting androgen receptor (AR) signaling is the emergence of ligand-binding domain-truncated and constitutively active AR splice variants, particularly AR-V7.

Genetic Testing in Men With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer.

This cross-sectional study assesses homologous recombination repair mutation genetic testing and associated characteristics among men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Prevalence of DNA-Repair Gene Mutations in Mexican Men with Prostate Cancer.

Mexico reported 26,742 new cases of prostate cancer in 2020. Different risk factors have been identified in the pathogenesis of prostate cancer. Among them, genetic factors and alterations or mutations in specific genes have been described in different ethnic groups worldwide.

Combination of Abiraterone Acetate, Prostate Bed Radiotherapy, and Luteinizing Hormone-releasing Hormone Agonists in Biochemically Relapsing Patients After Prostatectomy (CARLHA): A Phase 2 Clinical Trial.

The relevance of next-generation hormone therapies and circulating tumor cells (CTCs) are not elucidated in biochemical recurrence after prostatectomy.

To evaluate the combination of abiraterone acetate plus prednisone (AAP), prostate bed radiotherapy (PBRT), and goserelin in biochemically relapsing men after prostatectomy, and to investigate the utility of CTCs.

A bicentric retrospective study of the correlation of EAU BCR risk groups with 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT detection in prostate cancer biochemical recurrence.

The European Association of Urology (EAU) has proposed a risk stratification for patients harboring biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy: ISUP < 4 and PSA doubling time (PSAdt) > 12 months for low risk, and ISUP ≥ 4 or PSAdt ≤ 12 months for high risk.

Targeted microwave ablation for prostate cancer (FOSTINE1b): a prospective 'ablate-and-resect' study.

To assess histopathological outcomes, as well as feasibility and safety of targeted microwave ablation (TMA) via the Trinity® system (KOELIS, La Tronche, France).

Prospective, single-institution, interventional Phase IIa study with an 'ablate-and-resect' design.

Biochemical Response of <0.1 ng/ml Predicts Therapy-free Survival of Prostate Cancer Patients following Prostate-specific Membrane Antigen-targeted Salvage Surgery.

In a subset of patients with oligorecurrent prostate cancer (PCa), salvage surgery with prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) radioguided surgery (PSMA-RGS) seems to be of value.

To evaluate whether a lower level of postoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA; <0.

Determinants of receipt of prostate cancer screening among men living with HIV enrolled in an urban HIV Clinic in the United States over the period of 2000-2020.

Prostate cancer is projected to account for the greatest proportion of cancer-related burden among men with HIV. However, incidence is reportedly lower than in men without HIV, potentially due to differences in screening.

Morphologic patterns observed in prostate biopsy cases with discrepant grade group and molecular risk classification.

Molecular-based risk classifier tests are increasingly being utilized by urologists and radiation oncologists to guide clinical decision making. The Decipher prostate biopsy test is a 22-gene RNA biomarker assay designed to predict likelihood of high-grade disease at radical prostatectomy and risk of metastasis and mortality.

Robot-Assisted Radical Prostatectomy Performed with the Novel Hugo™ RAS System: A Systematic Review and Pooled Analysis of Surgical, Oncological, and Functional Outcomes.

Background/Objectives: to assess surgical, oncological, and functional outcomes of robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) performed using the novel Hugo™ RAS system. Methods: A systematic review was conducted following the PRISMA guidelines, using PubMed, Web of Science, Scopus, and Embase databases.
