Phase 1/2 JASPER Trial: Ruxolitinib Plus Enzalutamide for mCRPC

The JASPER trial is a phase 1/2 study launching from the University of Michigan, takes a fundamentally different approach to castration-resistant prostate cancer by targeting the molecular machinery driving cancer plasticity from the start: the JAK/STAT inflammatory signaling axis. Understanding why this strategy makes biological sense requires stepping into what we now know about how […]

Phase 1 Trial for DCC-2812 in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

DCC-2812 is a new oral drug designed to fight advanced cancers, especially in the urinary and reproductive systems like kidney, bladder, and prostate cancers. It works by turning on a special stress response inside cancer cells that pushes them past their breaking point, leading to cell death. Cancer cells live in harsh environments with low […]

Preliminary Data From a Phase 1/2 Trial of PDS01ADC Plus Docetaxel in mCRPC

Preliminary results from an ongoing phase 1/2 trial combining docetaxel with the tumor-targeting IL-12 immunocytokine PDS01ADC  (aka M9241) indicate promising early activity in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The single-arm study, presented at the American Association for Cancer Research special conference on prostate cancer research, enrolled 16 patients with progressive mCRPC, most of […]

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 […]

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 […]

SL-28 Phase 1/2 Trial: A Potential Breakthrough for Advanced Solid Tumors

SL-28 is a new type of donor cell therapy called Leukocyte-Tells. These cells come from healthy donors and get prepared outside the body to better fight cancer. They make more cancer-killing compounds, eat tumor cells, release enzymes, produce helpful signals, and move well toward tumors. Unlike other cell therapies, SL-28 does not need to match […]

Phase 1 Trial: STEAP1 CAR‑T Plus Enzalutamide A New Immune Approach for mCRPC

STEAP1 is a protein that sits on the surface of many prostate cancer cells, especially in advanced metastatic disease. Because it is abundant on cancer cells and much less present in normal tissues, STEAP1 looks like a promising “flag” that engineered immune cells can use to distinguish tumor from healthy organs. ​ The treatment being […]

ANDROMEDA: Phase 1/2 Trial of AZD9750 AR Degrader in Metastatic Prostate Cancer

The ANDROMEDA trial, a first-in-human Phase 1/2 study, is evaluating AZD9750, a novel androgen receptor (AR) PROTAC, in men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). PROTACs represent a paradigm shift in targeted therapy: unlike traditional AR inhibitors that merely block the receptor’s activity, AZD9750 recruits cellular machinery to completely degrade the AR protein, potentially overcoming […]

GSK5471713: An Investigational AR Degrader Targeting Late-Stage Prostate Cancer Resistance

Note: This article treats GSK5471713 as an androgen receptor (AR) degrader based on GSK’s official clinical trial registry classification and inclusion/exclusion criteria. While confident in the AR degrader designation from the sponsor’s documentation, the specific degradation mechanism (PROTAC, SARD, or other platform) remains undisclosed in publicly available sources at the moment. GSK5471713 is an investigational […]

BrUOG360 Phase Ib/II Trial: Copanlisib Plus Rucaparib for mCRPC With HRD

Copanlisib combined with rucaparib demonstrates tolerability and early signals of activity in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), according to results from the BrUOG360 phase Ib/II trial published in late 2025. ​Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer with homologous recombination deficiency (HRD) responds to PARP inhibitors like rucaparib, but many patients develop resistance through alternative DNA repair pathways.
