Confirmed Efficacy of Rucaparib in BRCA-Mutated mCRPC

Rucaparib continues to strengthen its position in BRCA-mutated metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), an advanced form of prostate cancer that progresses despite hormonal therapy, with TRITON3 trial confirming not only its efficacy but also a predictable and manageable safety profile. In this phase 3 study of chemotherapy-naïve patients progressing after one prior androgen receptor pathway […]

VECTRA-01 Phase 3 Trial Tests Alpha-Emitting AZD2265 in PSMA-Positive mCRPC

A pivotal Phase 3 trial called VECTRA-01 has launched to evaluate AZD2265 (²²⁵Ac-PSMA-I&T), an alpha-emitting radioligand therapy targeting PSMA-positive metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer. The study began in May 2026, enrolling approximately 670 participants across 90 global sites, with recruitment currently active at select locations. The trial’s primary objective is to demonstrate superiority over standard of […]

Phase 3 CaBRA Trial: Adding Carboplatin for mHSPC With BRCA Mutations or Neuroendocrine Phenotype

In the phase 3 CaBRA trial, carboplatin is added to the docetaxel-based chemotherapy backbone used with lifelong ADT (androgen deprivation therapy) and darolutamide,  creating a quadruple-intensification  therapy for a small but very high-risk subgroup of metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer. The trial focuses on tumors with either BRCA alterations or neuroendocrine differentiation, two features that are […]

Phase 3 PSMAddition Trial Reports Positive Outcomes for mHSPC

Results from the PSMAddition trial were published in a phase 3 setting and showed several clear numbers worth noting. The trial compared standard double hormone-based treatment alone (ADT + ARPI) versus the same treatment plus a PSMA-targeted radioligand therapy (Pluvicto), in men with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer.The biggest headline was a 58% lower risk of […]

Deutenzalutamide in mCRPC: Meaningful Benefit in the HC‑1119‑04 Trial

Nature reports the results of the HC‑1119‑04 trial, a randomized, multicenter, double‑blind, placebo‑controlled phase 3 study of deutenzalutamide (HC‑1119) in metastatic castration‑resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) after treatment with abiraterone and docetaxel. The trial was conducted in China and enrolled 417 patients, with 276 randomized to deutenzalutamide 80 mg once daily and 141 to placebo. All […]

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

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 […]

Capivasertib + Abiraterone in CAPItello-281: Promising rPFS in PTEN-Deficient mHSPC

The phase 3 trial CAPItello-281, has delivered compelling evidence that capivasertib combined with abiraterone could transform treatment for PTEN-deficient metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), a subtype affecting a substantial portion of advanced cases. In this double-blind study, 1012 patients with PTEN deficiency (defined rigorously as 90% or more viable malignant cells showing no cytoplasmic staining […]

Final PEACE-3 Trial Data: Radium-223 + Enzalutamide Extends Survival by 5.6 Months in Bone mCRPC.

Radium-223 plus enzalutamide significantly boosts survival for men with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) and bone metastases, according to final results from the Phase 3 PEACE-3 trial  presented at ASCO GU 2026. In this study of 446 patients with at least two bone metastases who were asymptomatic or only mildly symptomatic, adding six infusions of […]

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 […]

New Phase 3 Trial For BNT324 in Metastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

BNT324 (DB-1311) is rapidly emerging as one of the most promising new agents in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC), with a data package that is unusually strong for a first-in-class B7-H3–targeting antibody–drug conjugate and now compelling enough to justify a head‑to‑head Phase 3 trial against docetaxel. The reason it has attracted so much attention is […]
