Rucaparib Monotherapy Improves Radiographic Progression-Free Survival in Patients With Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer: TRITON3 Trial - Alan Bryce

Details
In this conversation, Alicia Morgans and Alan Bryce highlighted the TRITON3 study. TRITON3 is a Phase 3, multicenter, open-label, randomized trial of Rubraca in patients with chemotherapy-naïve metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The study enrolled 405 patients with a mutation in BRCA or ATM who were randomized to Rubraca or the control group, which consisted of the physician’...

Radiographic Progression-Free Survival Correlation with Time-to-Event Endpoints in the VISION Trial - Michael Morris

Details
In this discussion, Michael Morris and Alicia Morgans discuss a post hoc analysis of the VISION Trial aimed at assessing earlier maturing time-to-event endpoints. Earlier time-to-event endpoints than overall survival (OS) will allow more timely regulatory approval and overall accelerated drug development. Morris and colleagues aimed to estimate correlations between time-to-event endpoints such as...

Exploring the Molecular Mechanisms of Tumor Progression in Metastatic Prostate Cancer among Men of African Ancestry (MET-PAAM) - Clayton Yates

Details
Charles Ryan and Clayton Yates delve into the intricate landscape of health disparities and global health equity. Central to the discussion is Dr. Yates's groundbreaking work as principal investigator of MET-PAAM, studying the molecular mechanisms of tumor progression in metastatic prostate cancer among men of African descent. Dr. Yates provides insights into the unique BRCA2 gene variants found i...

Bipolar Androgen Therapy in the Management of Prostate Cancer - Samuel Denmeade

Details
Samuel Denmeade, Co-Director of the Johns Hopkins Prostate Cancer Program joins Alicia Morgans in a discussion on Bipolar Androgen Therapy (BAT) for prostate cancer. ADT slows prostate cancer’s progress by shutting off testosterone. Eventually, cancer adapts to this new environment and PSA levels start to rise. The concept of BAT is for men whose prostate cancer has become resistant to standard ho...

Developing a Blood-Based Biomarker Platform to Predict Treatment Outcomes in Prostate Cancer Patients - Martin Sjöström

Details
Martin Sjöström discusses his groundbreaking research on liquid biopsy biomarkers in prostate cancer. Dr. Sjöström’s team is developing a platform that uses the epigenetic modification, 5-hydroxymethylcytosine (5hmC), found in cell-free DNA circulating in the blood, to predict a patient's response to therapy and detect treatment resistance earlier. The novel approach provides broader and more comp...

Biomarker Analysis to Identify Molecular Signatures Predictive of Response in the COMBAT Study - Emmanuel Antonarakis

Details
Alicia Morgans and Emmanuel Antonarakis discuss an ongoing biomarker analysis aimed at identifying a molecular signature predictive of response in the COMBAT study. The COMBAT study is a multi-center, single-arm, open label Phase 2 study in asymptomatic patients with mCRPC who had soft tissue metastases amenable to biopsy, and who progressed on at least one prior novel AR-targeted therapy (and up...

Exploring the New Landscape of mCRPC: PARP Inhibitors, PSMA Radioligand Therapy, and More - Alicia Morgans

Details
In this discussion, Neal Shore speaks with Alicia Morgans to discuss their experiences and insights on topics ranging from survivorship to new developments in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Dr. Morgans highlights her work in the EAU session on mCRPC, outlining the significance of PARP inhibitors, the PROpel and MAGNITUDE trials, and the potential role of...

Exploring the SPLASH Trial: PSMA I&T Lutetium-177 in Pre-Chemo Metastatic CRPC - Oliver Sartor

Details
Alicia Morgans speaks with Oliver Sartor about the SPLASH trial and advances in radioligand therapy. The SPLASH trial involves PSMA I&T Lutetium-177 (renamed PNT2002) for pre-chemo, metastatic CRPC patients, with some differences in dose and schedule compared to PSMA 617. In the lead-in study involving 27 PSMA PET-selected patients, the initial PSA 50 response rate was 40%, and the radiographic re...

A Urologist's Perspective on PSMA-Radioligand Therapy in the Treatment Setting of mCRPC - Neal Shore

Details
Alicia Morgans speaks with Neal Shore about advancements in treating metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). They discuss the implications of the newly approved PSMA-RLT lutetium-617, a radiopharmaceutical, adding it to a list of existing therapies such as taxane therapy, PARP inhibitors, and immunotherapies like sipuleucel-T. Dr. Shore emphasizes that monotherapy is no longer acc...

ODM-208: A New Hope for Treatment-Resistant Prostate Cancer - Karim Fizazi

Details
Alicia Morgans interviews Karim Fizazi to discuss his presentation on the CYPIDES Phase I-II trial. The trial focuses on ODM-208, a CYP11 inhibitor developed with Orion, aimed at treating men with advanced prostate cancer who have exhausted conventional therapies and exhibit androgen receptor mutations. Dr. Fizazi explains that the compound targets the precursor enzymes for various steroids, there...
