BRCAAway OS Update: Abiraterone + Olaparib Extends Survival by 5 Years in HRRm mCRPC

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 […]

UPDATE: SECuRE Trial, Another Complete Responder

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 […]

UPDATE: VIR-5500 Results From Phase 1 Trial Look Very Promising

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 […]

A New Frontier: Magnetic Nanoparticle Hyperthermia for Solid Tumors

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 […]

SHR-4394: Phase 1/2 Trial Explores PSMA-Targeted ADC Combination Therapies in Prostate Cancer

A Phase 1/2 clinical trial (NCT07407283) is investigating SHR-4394, a novel PSMA-targeted antibody-drug conjugate (ADC), in combination with other anticancer treatments for patients with advanced prostate cancer. SHR-4394 is designed to recognize prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA), a protein commonly expressed on prostate cancer cells, and deliver a cytotoxic payload directly to the tumor. Unlike PSMA-targeted […]

BG-C0979: Pioneering Phase 1 Trial Targets ADAM9 in Advanced Solid Tumors, Including CRPC

A first-in-human Phase 1 clinical trial is underway to evaluate BG-C0979, a novel antibody-drug conjugate (ADC) designed for adults with advanced solid tumors. This open-label study focuses on assessing the drug’s safety, tolerability, pharmacokinetics, and early signs of antitumor activity through dose escalation and potential expansion phases. BG-C0979 targets ADAM9, a disintegrin and metalloproteinase enzyme […]

Phase 1/2 ACRES Trial: Pioneering 225Ac-rhPSMA-10.1 for Post-Lutetium mCRPC

The ACRES (ACT-RESoLUTE) trial represents a promising step forward in targeted alpha therapy for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), focusing on Actinium-225-labeled radiohybrid PSMA-10.1 (225Ac-rhPSMA-10.1) in patients who have largely progressed after Lutetium-177 PSMA therapy. This multi-site, open-label Phase 1/2 study addresses an urgent need in advanced prostate cancer, where effective post-Lu-PSMA options remain limited […]

EBNK-001: Pioneering Off-the-Shelf NK Cell Therapy for Solid Tumors

EBNK-001 represents a promising advancement in cancer immunotherapy as an “off-the-shelf” allogeneic natural killer (NK) cell product designed for multi-dose administration in patients with advanced solid tumors. Unlike autologous therapies that require individual patient cell harvesting and processing, EBNK-001 leverages healthy donor-derived NK cells, enabling immediate availability without lengthy manufacturing delays. This off-the-shelf approach addresses […]

EvoPAR-PR01: Saruparib (AZD5305) Phase III Trial in Metastatic Castration-Sensitive Prostate Cancer

Saruparib (AZD5305), a next-generation PARP1-selective inhibitor, represents a promising evolution in prostate cancer therapy, particularly for metastatic castration-sensitive disease (mCSPC), through the ongoing phase III EvoPAR-PR01 trial. Unlike first-generation PARP inhibitors (PARPi) such as olaparib that target both PARP1 and PARP2, saruparib specifically inhibits and traps PARP1 on DNA damage sites, sparing PARP2 to potentially […]

FDA Clears Phase 2b Trial of Teverelix in Advanced Prostate Cancer Patients at High Cardiovascular Risk

A new phase 2b clinical trial has received FDA “study may proceed” clearance for teverelix, a long‑acting GnRH antagonist being evaluated in men with advanced prostate cancer who are at high cardiovascular risk. The trial is designed to test a dose‑optimization regimen of teverelix over a 22‑week treatment period, with the primary goal of confirming […]
