Actinium‑225 NTSR1‑Targeted Radiopharmaceutical SKL35501

SKL35501 is an emerging radiopharmaceutical therapy that embodies much of what “next‑generation oncology” is supposed to mean: precise targeting, potent cell kill, and a built‑in companion diagnostic strategy. In January 2026, the US FDA cleared SKL35501 and its imaging partner SKL35502 for a phase 1 Investigational New Drug (IND). SKL35501 originated as FL‑091, a small‑molecule […]

Newsletter 4/2026

LAST WEEK TODAY! A summary of what was published on ProstateWarriors.com during the past week Hi fellow warriors! Here I am again! This week I had little time to post in the community, but there are still some interesting updates on the website! Stay strong and fight on! As usual, we also have a podcast if you […]

Recent Discovery on tRNA Halves in Prostate Cancer

Tiny pieces of genetic material called tRNA halves play a surprising role in fueling prostate cancer growth, according to new research published in PLOS Biology. These molecules form when normal tRNA, short strands of RNA that help build proteins, get split in half inside cells, especially those driven by male hormones like in prostate cancer. […]

ARREST Trial: Precision Radiation Boosts to Fix 177Lu-PSMA’s 50% Failure Rate

ARREST trial could change mCRPC treatment by solving 177Lu-PSMA’s biggest limitation: up to 50% of patients get little benefit despite FDA approval and proven survival gains. The simple idea? Add targeted external beam radiation boosts to the tumors that radioligand therapy misses, creating a hybrid approach that could cut skeletal complications dramatically. Current 177Lu-PSMA therapy […]

Docetaxel Rechallenge vs Cabazitaxel in mCRPC: VA Cohort Study

A retrospective cohort study published January 2, 2026, in JAMA Network Open compared docetaxel rechallenge to cabazitaxel in 669 patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer treated in the Veterans Affairs healthcare system from 2010 to 2023. All patients had received at least three cycles of initial docetaxel without disease progression and then one intervening systemic […]

Phase 3 Trial For Opevesostat A CYP11A1 Inhibitor in mCRPC

Opevesostat, a first-in-class CYP11A1 inhibitor, blocks the first step of steroid hormone production, eliminating all ligands that activate mutant androgen receptors in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The Phase 3 MK-5684-004 trial tests it against standard next-generation hormonal agents (NHAs, like abiraterone, enzalutamide, …) switching in 1,500 patients progressed on one prior NHA, with rPFS […]

A-CAR032: a STEAP2-Targeted Armored CAR-T Enters First-in-Human Trial for Advanced Prostate Cancer

A new Phase 1 clinical trial is testing A-CAR032, a CAR-T cell therapy, in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, or mCRPC. This first-in-human study targets STEAP2, a protein found on nearly all prostate cancer cells, including those that have spread to bones and lymph nodes. Prostate cancer creates a tough environment for immune cells […]
