Dual FOXA1/FOXA2 Targeting to Shut Down Lineage-Plastic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Targeting FOXA1 and FOXA2 in castration-resistant prostate cancer represents a new way of attacking the disease at the level of its lineage “identity” rather than only at the androgen receptor. FOXA1 and FOXA2 belong to a family of pioneer transcription factors. These pioneer transcription factors unlock tightly packed DNA, creating access for other proteins that […]

Newsletter 1/2026

LAST WEEK TODAY! A summary of what was published on ProstateWarriors.com during the past week Hi fellow warriors! Here I am again! The first newsletter of 2026. It’s particularly rich in preclinical research, just to get a sense of where we’re heading in the near future. Stay strong and fight on! As usual, we also have a podcast […]

KAIST In Situ CAR-Macrophage Therapy

The KAIST team has introduced a highly innovative form of cancer immunotherapy that turns the body’s own macrophages into potent, targeted cancer killers directly inside solid tumours. Instead of the classic, laborious route of extracting immune cells from a patient, engineering them in a lab, expanding them, and reinfusing them, this approach reprograms macrophages already […]

From T Cells to B Cells: The Next Generation of Personalized Cancer Vaccines

A research team at the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology (KAIST) has developed a new artificial intelligence model that could change how personalized cancer vaccines are designed. For decades, most cancer vaccine strategies have focused on training the immune system’s T cells to attack tumors quickly and directly, which can shrink tumors but […]

HRS-4357, a Novel PSMA-targeted Radiologand Therapy Phase 3 Trial

HRS-4357, a novel PSMA-targeted radiopharmaceutical, is poised to enter a landmark Phase III clinical trial targeting metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The trial, received approval from China’s National Medical Products Administration on December 23, 2025, and plans to enroll 370 patients across multiple centers in China. This randomized, open-label, controlled study will directly compare HRS-4357 […]

Dapagliflozin and Next-Generation Hormonal Agents: Targeting Metabolic Resistance in Metastatic Castrate-Resistant Prostate Cancer

A new phase 2 clinical trial is now underway to test whether adding dapagliflozin, a sodium-glucose cotransporter-2 inhibitor, to next-generation hormonal agents (darolutamide, abiraterone, apalutamide, enzalutamide) can extend survival in metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer. The rationale rests on a fundamental paradox in prostate cancer biology: while early tumors rely on oxidative metabolism and androgen signaling, […]

CRISPR Epigenetic Editing: Safely Reactivating Genes for Sickle Cell and Cancer’s Future

A new form of CRISPR technology developed by researchers at the University of New South Wales (UNSW Sydney) and St Jude Children’s Research Hospital promises a safer path for treating genetic diseases by controlling genes without cutting DNA strands. Published in Nature Communications, the study demonstrates epigenetic editing that removes methyl groups (small chemical clusters […]
