The MOMENT Trial: Mevrometostat Plus Enzalutamide in Post‑ARPI, Pre‑Abiraterone mCRPC

/in , , /by

Mevrometostat is an oral EZH2 inhibitor being developed to overcome resistance to androgen‑receptor–targeted therapy in prostate cancer. In tumors, EZH2 helps switch off tumor‑suppressor genes and supports androgen‑independent growth and lineage plasticity, changes that are strongly linked to progression on drugs like enzalutamide. Adding an EZH2 inhibitor to continued AR blockade is meant to “re‑discipline” […]

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

/in , , /by

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 1/2 Trial: Epigenetic KAT6 Inhibitor Plus Darolutamide in mCRPC

/in , , , /by

A Phase 1b/2 trial is planned to test the investigational KAT6 inhibitor OP-3136 combined with darolutamide in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). About 36 patients will be enrolled, with the study expected to start in the second half of 2026. The focus is on safety, tolerability, and early signs of anti-tumor activity. OP-3136 blocks KAT6A/B, […]

Emerging Real-World Evidence Suggests Differential Outcomes Between Abiraterone and Darolutamide in Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer

/in /by

Agents such as abiraterone and darolutamide have demonstrated significant survival benefits in randomized clinical trials, yet direct comparative evidence between these therapies, particularly in the pre-chemotherapy setting, remains notably absent. A recent retrospective cohort analysis leveraging the TriNetX database attempts to address this gap by comparing real-world outcomes in patients treated with ADT plus either […]

Darolutamide Linked to Cognitive Benefit Over Enzalutamide in Prostate Cancer

/in , , , , /by

Darolutamide (Nubeqa) caused significantly less cognitive decline than enzalutamide (Xtandi) over 24 weeks in men with advanced prostate cancer, according to results from the phase 2 ARACOG trial, which are scheduled to be presented at the 2026 ASCO Annual Meeting. The findings represent the first randomized, prospective head-to-head comparison of the cognitive effects of two […]

ARASEC Trial Validates Darolutamide Plus ADT in Metastatic Hormone-Sensitive Prostate Cancer

/in , , /by

The ARASEC trial, offers compelling evidence for darolutamide combined with androgen deprivation therapy as a treatment option for men with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. This Phase 2 study tackled a challenging ethical dilemma in modern clinical trial design: how to evaluate a new treatment when randomizing patients to receive only standard ADT would be considered […]

Darolutamide Monotherapy in ARAMON Trial: 52-Week Results in Non-Metastatic or Oligometastatic CSPC

/in , , , , /by

A new study called ARAMON shows promising results for using darolutamide alone to treat non-metastatic or oligometastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (CSPC), as known as androgen pathway modulator sensitive (APMS), in men who have biochemical recurrence after surgery or radiation. This phase 2 trial enrolled 23 evaluable patients with PSA ≥0.2 ng/mL post-prostatectomy or ≥2 ng/mL […]

Darolutamide Linked to Better Real‑World Outcomes than Enzalutamide or Apalutamide in nmCRPC

/in , /by

A large real‑world study in nonmetastatic castration‑resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC) called DEAR‑EXT, published on Nature, has added new detail to how the three androgen receptor inhibitors (darolutamide, enzalutamide, and apalutamide) behave outside of randomized trials, using data from over 1,300 men treated in US urology practices between 2019 and 2023. The analysis builds on an […]

Phase 1/2 Trial: Valemetostat Plus Darolutamide in mCRPC

/in , , , /by

A phase 1/2 clinical trial investigating valemetostat (DS-3201b), a dual EZH1/2 inhibitor, combined with darolutamide in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) is going to start to recruit participants. This study aims to evaluate the safety, tolerability, and preliminary efficacy of the combination in men whose disease has progressed despite prior androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs). […]

Phase 1/2 Trial to Evaluate Gedatolisib Plus Darolutamide Combo in mCRPC

/in , , , /by

Gedatolisib, an inhibitor targeting the PI3K/AKT/mTOR pathway, in combination with darolutamide, an androgen receptor antagonist, is being evaluated as a treatment option for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). In a phase 1/2 clinical trial, patients who had progressed on prior androgen receptor signaling inhibitors received once-weekly intravenous gedatolisib in doses of 120 mg or 180 […]
