MRT-2359 is a daily pill that destroys certain cancer-driving proteins, including the androgen receptor (AR), MYC, and Cyclin D1, by blocking a key step in how cells read genetic instructions. This approach targets metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), where AR mutations in the ligand-binding domain (LBD) allow tumors to grow despite hormone-blocking drugs like enzalutamide. […]
²²⁵Ac‑PSMA‑Trillium (BAY3563254) is an experimental treatment that delivers targeted alpha radiation to prostate cancer cells. It combines a highly selective PSMA‑binding molecule with an albumin‑binding domain that helps it stay in the bloodstream longer and reach tumors more effectively. The radioactive component, actinium‑225, is attached using a stable Macropa chelator to increase safety and stability. […]
The BRCAAway trial brings strong new data on treating metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, or mCRPC, in patients with specific DNA repair defects known as homologous recombination repair mutations, or HRRm. This phase 2 study tested abiraterone alone, olaparib alone, or the two drugs together as first-line therapy. It focused on patients with germline or somatic […]
Since October 2025, when the pre|CISION platform first demonstrated its potential to deliver dual payloads like MMAE and exatecan from a single molecule in prostate cancer models, significant new data has emerged that strengthens its case as a next-generation targeted therapy. The platform’s ability to exploit fibroblast activation protein (FAP) in the tumor microenvironment for […]
A striking new update from the ongoing SECuRE trial has revealed yet another participant achieving undetectable PSA levels alongside a completely negative PSMA PET scan, underscoring the potential of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in advanced prostate cancer treatment. This 76-year-old patient, facing progressive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) 15 years after initial diagnosis, started with a baseline PSA […]
Researchers at Trinity College Dublin and Moffitt Cancer Center have uncovered a promising prostate cancer breakthrough: radiation-resistant tumor cells become unexpectedly vulnerable to attack by natural killer (NK) immune cells, presenting a strategic “evolutionary double-bind” that could transform treatment approaches. This discovery challenges traditional views of therapy resistance, showing that when prostate cancer cells adapt […]
Recent clinical data from a Phase 1 dose-escalation trial highlight VIR-5500 as a highly promising therapeutic candidate for patients with heavily pre-treated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). VIR-5500 is a dual-masked, bispecific T-cell engager designed to selectively target the prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) while minimizing systemic toxicity. The therapy employs a specialized PRO-XTEN masking technology […]
LAST WEEK TODAY! A summary of what was published on ProstateWarriors.com during the past week Hi fellow warriors! We’re right on track! This week there’s a lot to talk about…and ASCO GU 2026 hasn’t even started yet. Stay strong and fight on! As usual, we also have a podcast if you prefer to listen to the newsletter, you […]
In November 2025, Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota installed the first magnetic nanoparticle hyperthermia system in the United States for cancer research. The first patient was treated in December 2025, marking a major step toward bringing a long‑overlooked concept into the modern, heavily pretreated cancer landscape. Hyperthermia, the therapeutic use of heat, has been studied […]
Genomic alterations like TP53, PTEN, and RB1 mutations are prevalent in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), yet their impact on response to 177Lu-PSMA-617 (LuPSMA, Pluvicto) radioligand therapy remains underexplored. A recent retrospective study published in the Journal of Nuclear Medicine analyzed 72 mCRPC patients treated with at least one cycle of LuPSMA between October 2022 […]
