Orgovyx is the first oral drug to treat patients with advanced prostate cancer, who were previously treated with intravenous drugs that required clinic visits.

While the current field of prostate cancer research is experiencing an era of “warp speed developments,” perhaps the most exciting option on the horizon is theranostics, according to Dr. Phillip J. Koo.

The radioactive diagnostic agent, Gallium 68 PSMA-11, can detect suspected prostate cancer metastasis or recurrence, providing another imaging option for these patients.

The field of theranostics is growing, and its impact could change the future of prostate cancer treatment. CURE® discusses this potential with a theranostics expert.

The FDA approved this liquid biopsy to check blood for prostate-tumor DNA that indicates the presence of genetic mutations or rearrangements. The test was also recently approved for use in patients with ovarian, non-small cell lung or breast tumors.

In an interview with CURE®, Dr. Phillip J. Koo defines what theranostics is, discusses the treatment’s potential and answers questions patients may have regarding its safety.

From a Canadian man shaving his moustache for the first time in nearly 50 years to participate in Movember to HGTV’s “Flip or Flop” host Tarek El Moussa discussing his journey with testicular and thyroid cancer, here’s what’s happening in the cancer landscape this week.

In a candid announcement on Friday, November 6th, famed Today Show host Al Roker announced his recent prostate cancer diagnosis and prognosis.

Treatment with a novel immuno-oncology therapy demonstrated a manageable safety profile with preliminary efficacy in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

As the wife of a prostate cancer survivor, I’m eternally grateful for Colorado’s early blood draw program that helped my husband get lifesaving treatment early.

The novel coronavirus that led to the COVID-19 pandemic has been a constant fixture, not dissimilar to how cancer hangs over our lives as well.

Men may experience erectile dysfunction and incontinence after receiving treatment for prostate cancer. However, there are devices — like a penile prosthetic and artificial urinary sphincter — that can help control those side effects associated with treatment.

Prostate cancer treatment can be detrimental to bone and muscle health, but an exercise regimen and healthy eating habits can help.

Some patients are better suited for surgery than others. In general, patients with widespread metastatic disease are also not good candidates for surgery, particularly if their cancer has spread beyond the prostate to areas like the liver, lungs, and bones.

Active surveillance can be used for many patients with prostate cancer; however, when localized, radiation therapy is an option.

Finding balance to detect and treat prostate cancer without overtreatment is important for patients.

PARP inhibitors are not only expanding the field of prostate cancer but they're giving men another option for life after cancer.

After a recommendation against routine prostate cancer screening, rates of early disease declined while the incidence of advanced disease rose. The trend highlights the difficult balance between screening and potential overtreatment.

Primed to knock out cells vulnerable due to DNA-repair problems, PARP inhibitors are ushering in a targeted-drug era in prostate cancer treatment.

VERU Inc. announced it has completed enrollment of 40 men with metastatic prostate cancer who have become resistant to at least one androgen receptor targeting agent for its phase 2 study of VERU-111.

A growing number of treatments are available to men whose prostate cancer has spread and become resistant to hormonal therapy.

Forward Momentum, a coalition launched by a biopharmaceutical company and three partners, focuses on the health disparities faced by Black men with prostate cancer.
