Prostate Cancer Biochemical Recurrence Risk Stratification Falls Short
As currently defined, biochemical recurrence after surgery or radiation is not a reliable predictor of the risk of death from prostate cancer, investigators say.
Diagnosis & Disease Information
Radiotherapy for Prostate Cancer Linked to Higher Risk of Bladder and Lung Cancer
Prostate cancer patients treated with radiotherapy have a higher risk of developing and dying from bladder cancer or lung cancer than patients treated with radical prostatectomy alone, a study suggests.
Ranitidine Does Not Increase the Risk of Cancer, Study Suggests
A meta-analysis suggests that ranitidine does not pose an increased risk of cancer when compared to other histamine-2 receptor antagonists.
Prostate Cancer Outcomes Worse With Higher Periprostatic vs Serum Testosterone
Local testosterone delivery to the prostate bed might be a better marker of post-prostatectomy outcomes than serum testosterone in some men.
BCR Endpoints an Unreliable Surrogate for Survival in Prostate Cancer Trials
Biochemical recurrence endpoints did not reliably predict overall survival in prostate cancer trials.
Prostate Cancer Survival Differs by Site of Visceral Metastases
Patients with prostate cancer who have visceral metastases limited to the lung have the best prognosis, a study suggests.
Real-World Data Confirm Efficacy of 177Lutetium PSMA-617 for mCRPC
A PSA decrease of 30% or more occurred in 77.8% of patients after the third treatment cycle, investigators reported.
Prostate Cancer Screening With MRI Detects Cancers Missed by PSA Test
MRI screening can catch prostate cancers missed by PSA testing, researchers found.
Mask Mandates Have Kept One Cancer Center Free From COVID-19. Others Have Lifted Masking Requirements Despite Patient Concerns
Some cancer centers have lifted mask mandates that were intended to protect patients from COVID-19, despite patient concerns.
Nerve-Sparing Surgery for High-Risk Prostate Cancer Does Not Worsen Outcomes
Study findings support attempting nerve-sparing surgery in patients with confirmed high-risk prostate cancer.
