Tanya B. Dorff, MD, a medical oncologist at the City of Hope Cancer Center, discusses the reasoning behind using PSCA-targeted chimeric antigen receptor T-cell therapy and the design of this early study in an interview with Targeted Oncology.

Neeraj Agarwal, MD, discusses the possible adverse events of the randomized phase 3 CONTACT-02 trial of cabozantinib plus atezolizumab versus a second novel hormonal therapy in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

An increase in metastatic prostate cancer cases were reported in the United States and investigators are suggesting that this may be due, in part, to reductions in prostate-specific antigen, according to epidemiologic data from a study presented during the 2021 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.

A molecular signature has been identified that can characterize long-term responders from treatment with apalutamide and androgen deprivation therapy in patients with nonmetastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, according to findings, presented at the 2021 Genitourinary Cancers Symposium.

Localized metastatic lesions were detected with a high correct localization rate (CLR) and positive predictive value (PPV) with the investigational prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)–targeted PET imaging agent 18F-DCFPyL.
