Prostate Cancer

Dawn Hershman, MD, Associate Professor Medicine at Columbia University Medical Center, discusses the late-effects of intermittent androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) to continuous ADT in prostate cancer.

Nagi B. Kumar, PhD, Professor/Director, Cancer Chemoprevention, Moffitt Cancer Center, discusses the potential of green tea catechins for the prevention of prostate cancer.

Howard Sandler, MD, MS, FASTRO, chair, Radiation Oncology, Ronald H. Bloom Family Chair in Cancer Therapeutics, discusses results from a phase III study on docetaxel with hormonal and radiation therapy in prostate cancer.

Treatment with an adjuvant combination of docetaxel, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), and radiation therapy (RT) improved 4-year overall survival rates in patients with high-risk localized prostate cancer, when compared with ADT plus RT alone.

A. Karim Kader, MD, PhD, Minimally Invasive Surgery, Urology, Department of Surgery, University of California San Diego School of Medicine, discusses how prostate genetic score (PGS) stratifies baseline risk of prostate cancer and improves prostate-specific antigen (PSA) performance in the Prostate, Lung, Colorectal and Ovarian (PLCO) Cancer Screening trial.

Mathew Hall, MD, radiation oncologist, City of Hope National Medical Center, discusses the impact of prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening recommendations.

Prior treatment with abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide did not alter the survival benefit seen with radium-223 in men with advanced castration-resistant prostate cancer.

Neal D. Shore, MD, FACS, medical director, Carolina Urologic Research Center, managing partner, Atlantic Urology Clinics, discusses the results of the TERRAIN trial.
