"We recognize that an 11% increase in success may not seem that clinically significant, but I think every little bit helps," says Kate H. Kraft, MD, MHPE, FACS, FAAP.

"I'm all for this great effort by ImmunityBio to provide us with an alternative option,” says Suzanne B. Merrill, MD, FACS.

“I think we now have really robust data showing that earlier treatment intensification with combination regimens does lead to improved survival for patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer," says Dr Louise Kostos.

"For other health care professionals aiming to advocate for equitable changes within their system, it's really important to just start conversations about what you're noticing," says Hailey Frye.

"In a practice like mine, where approximately 30% of the practice is low testosterone, it'll have actually very little negative effect," says John P. Mulhall, MD.

“What's really cool about overactive bladder is that, it's not like high blood pressure. They do not have to leave this office with a pill in hand," says Anna Myers, CNP.

“One important aspect to get across…is that access to this EAP is pretty easy," says Suzanne B. Merrill, MD, FACS.

“High risk, non–muscle invasive bladder cancer carries a significant risk of recurrence and progression. This emphasizes the need for careful patient selection, especially when we are considering bladder-sparing approaches," says Neeraja Tillu, MD.

"This now clarifies and substantiates the fact that there are not increased risks from a cardiovascular standpoint with [testosterone] therapy, at least at the doses studied," says Landon Trost, MD.

"A lot of times…decreased desire is affected by everything else: pain with sex, orgasm, arousal. Because if none of that is good, then desire isn't going to be good either," says Anna Myers, CNP.

“The impact on bone health is really significant with long-term androgen suppression," says Dr Louise Kostos.

“I think we can really use AI in several different facets of endourology," says Perry Xu, MD.

"I hope that these new guidelines and the removal of the black box warning on testosterone therapy will help more physicians feel comfortable providing testosterone therapy to men," says Helen L. Bernie, DO, MPH.

"When we compared the 2 groups, those that received tamsulosin and those that did not, we did find a significant difference with regard to success rates," says Kate H. Kraft, MD, MHPE, FACS, FAAP. .

“In 5200 men, very clearly, definitively, irrefutably, it has been shown that testosterone therapy is not associated with MACE over the course of the 12 to 24 months after commencement of testosterone therapy," says John P. Mulhall, MD.

"We found that female patients, Black patients, and patients with non-private insurance had a decreased odds of receiving opioids,” says Hailey Frye.

"Personally, I think monitoring and analyzing PSA kinetics is a great one because it's cheap and it's readily available,” says Dr Louise Kostos.

"4 years following radiation therapy, there is a 25% lower hazard of bowel disorders and a 46% lower hazard of related procedures [in patients who received a spacer],” says Michael R. Folkert, MD, PhD.

“Identification of significant predictors [of upstaging] has improved our pre-op counseling," says Neeraja Tillu, MD.

"I think that testosterone is really a medication that can be life changing for so many men, says Helen L. Bernie, DO, MPH.

“The main challenge at the moment is patients are being diagnosed with metastatic disease far earlier than they would have been otherwise, and therefore [are being] considered for combination systemic therapy potentially years earlier than they would have been if we just looked at conventional imaging," says Dr Louise Kostos.

"We need to be aware that patients have options for treatment of high-risk biochemical recurrence, and in order to identify that they have high-risk biochemical recurrence...we need to calculate PSA doubling time,” says Alicia Morgans, MD, MPH.

"I'm so excited about them finally removing this boxed warning," says Helen L. Bernie, DO, MPH.

“For someone that might be looking at getting into sacral neuromodulation, and has had some reluctance in the past, this does simplify the procedure somewhat," says Colin Goudelocke, MD.

"In terms of how I select patients, I really look at the timing of metastatic disease, so whether it's metachronous or synchronous and the volume, and I think at this stage, the data are most robust for the synchronous and high-volume patients," says Dr Louise Kostos.

"I would also like us to be able to reliably use even smaller scopes, but keep them efficient," says Amy E. Krambeck, MD.

"It is important for us to ask patients whether they want to intensify or not, and not make assumptions," says Alicia Morgans, MD, MPH.

"[The lack of] a battery makes it ultra small. That's really important," says Colin Goudelocke, MD.

"It was a really interesting paper to develop and write, because over the past decade, there's been such a paradigm shift in the treatment of prostate cancer," says Dr Louise Kostos.

"[Urologists] really need to understand how big the prostate is and how big of a surgery that they're looking at," says Amy E. Krambeck, MD.
