Estrogen‑Based Androgen Suppression Plus ARSI in Prostate Cancer: A Phase 2 Quality‑of‑Life Trial

/in , , /by

A new phase 2 EQUIP trial is comparing two different ways of delivering androgen‑suppressive hormone therapy in men with newly diagnosed or recurrent metastatic hormone‑sensitive prostate cancer, focusing on whether transdermal estrogen patches can improve quality of life compared with standard luteinizing hormone‑releasing hormone (LHRH) analogues. The study is designed around two randomized cohorts, each […]

GLR2037: A First‑in‑Human AR‑Targeted PROTAC Enters Phase 1 Trials in Advanced Prostate Cancer

/in , , /by

A new investigational agent code‑named GLR2037 has entered early clinical development as a first‑in‑human phase 1 study in patients with advanced prostate cancer, representing a significant step in the evolution of androgen receptor–directed therapies. GLR2037 is an androgen receptor (AR)–targeting proteolysis‑targeting chimera (PROTAC), designed not merely to inhibit the AR but to promote its ubiquitin‑proteasome–mediated […]

Durable PSA Control After Testosterone Recovery in High‑Risk Biochemical Recurrent Prostate Cancer

/in /by

A recent post hoc analysis of the phase 3 EMBARK trial in high‑risk biochemical recurrent prostate cancer has generated considerable interest because it suggests that durable, long‑term PSA control can occur even after testosterone has fully recovered to eugonadal levels, challenging the conventional assumption that hormonal suppression must be continuous to maintain remission. The analysis […]

Amino Acid Mix Supercharges Lipid Nanoparticle Delivery for mRNA and CRISPR Therapies

/in , /by

Scientists have discovered that a simple mix of three amino acids can greatly improve how well lipid‑nanoparticle (LNP)–based therapies work in the body. These LNPs are tiny fat‑like packages used to carry mRNA or CRISPR components into cells, and they are already at the heart of new vaccines and gene‑editing treatments. The new finding suggests […]

The ENHANCE Phase 3 Trial Tries to Cuts Hormone Therapy Side Effects

/in , , /by

Hormone therapy has been a cornerstone for treating advanced prostate cancer, starving tumors of the male hormones they crave to grow. But it often brings harsh side effects like crushing fatigue, hot flashes, high blood pressure, and loss of muscle mass that make daily life a struggle for many men. Now, a major new UK […]

HITMAN-PC Phase 1 Results: Hydroxychloroquine + SUBA-Itraconazole Stabilizes Biochemical Prostate Cancer Relapse

/in , , /by

The HITMAN-PC trial represents a targeted metabolic approach to managing biochemical relapse in prostate cancer, combining hydroxychloroquine (HCQ) and SUBA-itraconazole (SI) to disrupt lysosomal function and cholesterol trafficking in hormone-sensitive disease. In this phase 1 dose-escalation study, 11 men (median age 73, baseline PSA 4.4 ng/mL, PSA doubling time 5.3 months) received fixed SI at […]

P‑PSMA‑101 CAR‑T Therapy in Advanced Prostate Cancer: Early Results from a Phase 1 Trial

/in , , /by

P‑PSMA‑101 is an experimental CAR‑T cell therapy being tested in men with metastatic castration‑resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) who have already received multiple standard treatments (up to 10 before enrollment). In the phase 1 trial, 33 men with heavily pretreated mCRPC received P‑PSMA‑101, an autologous PSMA‑targeted CAR‑T product enriched in stem‑cell‑like memory T cells and engineered […]

Complete Response to Pembrolizumab in a Metastatic, Castration‑Resistant Prostate Cancer Survivor

/in /by

A remarkable case published in Annals of Internal Medicine: Clinical Cases highlights a man with metastatic, castration‑resistant prostate cancer who achieved a complete and durable response to pembrolizumab after exhausting multiple standard therapies. The patient had previously received abiraterone‑based treatment followed by chemotherapy, and then olaparib, all of which he had progressed on, leaving him […]

Phase 1/2 PARTHENON Trial: AZD4956 Targets HRD in Advanced Prostate Cancer

/in , , , /by

The PARTHENON trial tests AZD4956, an experimental oral drug that blocks SMARCA2, a protein helping cancer cells rearrange their DNA to keep growing. In tumors already “weak” at fixing DNA damage due to homologous recombination deficiency (HRD), shutting down SMARCA2 creates a double hit: cells can’t remodel chromatin or repair errors, leading to collapse. This […]
