- Zachary Klaassen and Neal Shore discuss treatment options for high-risk biochemical recurrence following prostatectomy and salvage radiation, using a case presentation of a 67-year-old active patient with rapidly rising PSA. Dr. Shore reviews the EMBARK trial design, which randomized patients to enzalutamide plus leuprolide, enzalutamide monotherapy, or leuprolide alone, with treatment interruptio...

- Zachary Klassen speaks with Ugo Falagario about identifying high-risk biochemical recurrence (BCR) after prostate cancer treatment. Dr. Falagario discusses findings from an analysis of the Stockholm-0 database comparing EAU high-risk and EMBARK criteria definitions. The study reveals significant differences in the cumulative incidence of high-risk BCR depending on the definition used. After radica...

- Zachary Klaassen interviews Stephen Freedland about a subanalysis from the EMBARK trial, which transformed treatment for high-risk biochemical recurrence in prostate cancer. Dr. Freedland describes how EMBARK demonstrated that enzalutamide, either as monotherapy or combined with ADT, significantly improved metastasis-free survival in patients with conventional imaging-negative disease and PSA doub...

- Zach Klaassen interviews Neal Shore about the EMBARK trial's post hoc analysis by age. The study examines the efficacy of enzalutamide alone or combined with leuprolide for high-risk biochemical recurrence in prostate cancer patients. Dr. Shore discusses the trial design, key results, and the implications of age stratification ( 70 years) on treatment outcomes and adverse events. The analysis show...

- Matthew Cooperberg is joined by Steve Freedland, Neal Shore, and Rana McKay to discuss the findings from the EMBARK trial, a landmark study examining treatments for prostate cancer patients experiencing biochemical recurrence. The EMBARK trial compares traditional androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) using leuprolide alone, with the addition of enzalutamide, and enzalutamide alone. Drs. Freedland an...

- Alicia Morgans speaks with Neal Shore about managing biochemical recurrence (BCR) in high-risk patients, particularly following radiotherapy (RT) and radical prostatectomy (RP). Discussing findings from the EMBARK trial, Dr. Shore emphasizes that combining enzalutamide with LHRH, or using enzalutamide alone, significantly improves metastasis-free survival compared to leuprolide monotherapy. He foc...

- Zach Klaassen and Neal Shore discuss the outcomes of the EMBARK trial, focusing on treatment strategies for high-risk biochemically recurrent prostate cancer. In this detailed conversation, Dr. Shore explains the trial’s structure, which tested the efficacy of enzalutamide combined with leuprolide acetate or as monotherapy. Trial findings reveal a significant improvement in metastasis-free surviva...

- Daniel George and Stephen Freedland delve into the EMBARK study, a trial on Enzalutamide for high-risk non-metastatic biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer. They explore the approach of using Enzalutamide, both in combination with Leuprolide and as monotherapy, highlighting its significant impact on metastasis-free survival. The study reveals that combination therapy substantially reduces the...
