- Silke Gillessen joins Neeraj Agarwal to discuss the results of the STAMPEDE trial's metformin arm. The phase 3 trial evaluates the addition of metformin to androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. While the primary endpoint of overall survival is not met, the study reveals significant improvements in metabolic parameters, including reduced w...

- Andrea Miyahira hosts Steven Kregel to discuss a published paper on humanized mouse models for metastatic prostate cancer. Dr. Kregel discusses the challenges of modeling prostate cancer in mice and introduces humanized mouse models that better recapitulate human immune responses. He explains how these models, developed using human hematopoietic stem cells, allow for the study of cancer therapies...

- Phillip Koo and Zachary Klaassen discuss the UpFrontPSMA study, a Phase 2 trial published in Lancet Oncology. The study evaluates lutetium-177 PSMA-617 followed by docetaxel versus docetaxel alone in patients with de novo high-volume metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. They highlight the trial design, which uses PSMA and FDG PET for patient selection, and discuss key results. The primary...

- Zachary Klaassen hosts Sarah Howlett and Mahaz Kayani about the STAMPEDE2 platform trial, focusing on Arm N, which tests niraparib-abiraterone in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer patients with specific homologous recombination repair gene alterations. They discuss the trial's design, which randomizes patients to receive either a dual-action tablet of niraparib-abiraterone or standard A...

- Bram De Laere discusses the ProBio trial, a platform study for metastatic prostate cancer. Dr. De Laere explains the trial's unique design, which uses circulating tumor DNA analysis to guide treatment decisions and evaluate multiple biomarker-therapy combinations simultaneously. The study demonstrates that AR pathway inhibitors generally outperform taxane-based chemotherapy in mCRPC patients, with...

- Rashid Sayyid and Zach Klaassen discuss the ARANOTE trial, a phase III study evaluating darolutamide plus ADT in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. They highlight the trial's design, which randomized 669 patients to darolutamide plus ADT or placebo plus ADT. The study meets its primary endpoint, showing significant improvement in radiographic progression-free survival for the darolutami...

- While most patients with prostate cancer are diagnosed with localized disease, a subset will develop metastatic disease, and subsequently castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), which remains incurable. Additionally, an increasing number of patients will present with de novo metastatic prostate cancer, known as metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC), and may progress to mCRP...

- Fred Saad and Neal Shore discuss the ARANOTE trial with Zach Klaassen, exploring the use of darolutamide plus ADT in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. They highlight the trial's diverse patient population and impressive results, including a 46% reduction in radiographic progression-free survival risk. The conversation covers the efficacy of this doublet therapy in various subgroups, pa...

- Neeraj Agarwal interviews Niven Mehra about the INSPIRE trial. The study examines the efficacy of nivolumab and ipilimumab combination therapy in molecularly selected patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Dr. Mehra discusses the trial's design, which focuses on four subgroups: mismatch repair deficiency, high tumor mutational burden, CDK12 inactivation, and BRCA2 m...

- Oliver Sartor interviews William Kevin Kelly about findings on AMG 509 (Xaluritamig), a STEAP1-targeted T-cell engager for advanced prostate cancer. Dr. Kelly discusses the drug's mechanism, dosing optimization, and efficacy in heavily pretreated patients. He highlights the manageable cytokine release syndrome and the need to address musculoskeletal side effects. The conversation covers impressive...
