- Fred Saad joins Alicia Morgans to discuss the quality of life data from the ARAMIS trial. The data suggest that adding darolutamide (systemic therapy) to ADT compared to ADT alone improves quality fo life in the patients, and these include bowel and urinary symptom benefit along with the skeletal outcomes and quality-of-life measures. The ARAMIS study suggests that androgen receptor antagonist dar...

- Karim Fizazi and Alicia Morgans discuss a follow-up on the quality of life parameters evaluated in the ARAMIS trial. Darolutamide was also associated with benefits with regard to all secondary end points, including overall survival, time to pain progression, time to cytotoxic chemotherapy, and time to a symptomatic skeletal-related event. The incidence of adverse events that occurred or worsened d...

- Petros Grivas discussed Neeraj Agarwal's insights about the latest prostate cancer study results that will impact patient care as presented at ASCO GU 2019. The ARAMIS trial evaluated the efficacy of darolutamide for delaying metastasis and death in men with nonmetastatic, castration-resistant prostate cancer. Darolutamide is a structurally unique androgen-receptor antagonist that is under develop...

- (Length of Discussion: 20 min) Alicia Morgans and Charles Ryan have a dialogue on the study design, results and conclusions from the IMAAGEN trial in the non-metastatic prostate cancer space. The IMAAGEN trial evaluated the use of abiraterone acetate (1,000 mg) plus prednisone (5 mg) in patients with high risk, nonmetastatic, castration resistant prostate cancer. Biographies: Charles J. Ryan, MD A...
