- Matthew Smith shares his thoughts on the importance of bone health in the prostate cancer patient population. Osteoporotic or fragility fractures are common due to the age of the patient and long-term androgen deprivation therapy. Fractures have a great impact on patient mortality, mobility, independence, and overall quality of life. Dr. Smith addresses questions regarding bone density measurement...

- Neal Shore joins Alicia Morgans in a discussion on the optimal timing to use radium-223 (Xofigo®) in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Together they discuss the window of opportunity for administering radium-223 and what we have learned from the ALSYMPCA and ERA-223 trials. Dr. Shore recaps how radium-223 is being used prior to docetaxel and how it is being layered with an a...

- Neal Shore and Bertrand Tombal discuss the importance of bone health agents, particularly in patients receiving castrate-resistant prostate cancer agents. Highlights of their conversation include the use of antiresorptive therapy to reduce the risk of skeletal-related events in men with bone mCRPC and decreased fracture rate by mandating bone-protecting agents in the EORTC 1333/PEACE III trial. Bi...
