The approval is supported by positive data from the phase 3 PSMAfore trial.

“Our results show that by using NeuroSAFE, nearly twice as many men don’t have to face potentially life-changing loss of erectile function after prostate surgery,” says Professor Greg L. Shaw.

“These findings reinforce isodose MHFRT as the standard of care, offering the same cancer control as conventional treatment but with fewer side effects than dose-escalated MHFRT,” says Amar U. Kishan, MD.

“Our study identifies that men who were invited for screening, but do not attend screening appointments are at significantly higher risk of dying from prostate cancer compared to men who were not offered screening or accepted an invitation for screening,” says Renée Leenen MD.

Pocenbrodib is an oral, small molecule designed to inhibit the proteins CREBBP/EP300, which activate genes that promote cancer cell growth and proliferation.

“The study suggests that exercise would be an effective intervention for men with prostate cancer who express concern about sexual dysfunction, and that exercise medicine should be considered a key part of their treatment,” says Daniel Galvão, PhD.

"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.

The mean absorbed radiation dose to tumors was 8.9 Gy/GBq, compared with 0.27 Gy/GBq in the kidneys and 0.13 Gy/GBq in the salivary glands.

The goal of the trial is to improve quality of life by identifying patients who can safely reduce or avoid treatment with hormone therapy.

"Considering that almost all patients in the combined treatment group achieved testosterone recovery at 1 year, the results support that this short term (intermittent) combined approach is an optimal option in selected patients with metachronous oligorecurrent hormone-sensitive prostate cancer," the authors wrote.

The safety review committee recommended that the phase 2 portion proceed with the 8 GBq dose.

The median OS was 34 months with 177Lu-PSMA-617 plus enzalutamide compared with 26 months with enzalutamide alone.

A recap of the FDA submissions and regulatory decisions in urology from February 2025.

Data from the VAPOR 2 trial are intended to support a submission to the FDA for 510(k) clearance of the device.

Myriad is planning to launch its first AI-driven prostate cancer clinical test later this year.

The trial plans to enroll up to 80 adult patients with mCRPC who have progressed on prior systemic therapies.

Median PFS was 35 months in the MDT plus SOC group vs 21 months in the SOC alone group.

A total of 37 studies included real-world OS as an outcome; in these studies, median real-world OS ranged from 9 months to 23.5 months.

"Efficacy outcomes with darolutamide plus ADT were improved vs placebo plus ADT regardless of disease volume," said Fred Saad, MD, FRCS.

The median number of re-injections was 6 (range, 1-12).

"Patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer benefited from treatment with darolutamide plus ADT and docetaxel regardless of age," said Joan Carles, MD, PhD.

In both racial cohorts, median MFS was not reached in the darolutamide group.

“Looking at our overall results, not surprisingly, we can show a clear benefit of ARPIs on overall survival," says David Fisher, MSc, MA.

The investigators reported an HR for OS of 0.796 (95% CI, 0.661-0.958; 2-sided P = .0155) for talazoparib/enzalutamide vs enzalutamide/placebo.

The software generates heatmaps to help identify prostatic tumors that may have been missed on initial reads.

"The management of advanced prostate cancer has evolved significantly, driven in part by the integration of diverse biomarkers that guide treatment decisions from diagnosis through progression," says Nedim Ruhotina, MD.

The primary end point is 12-month radiographic progression-free survival.

The data also showed that mortality plateaued in recent years despite declining in years prior.
