Purpose: Lutetium-177 Prostate-specific membrane antigen (Lu-PSMA) radioligand therapy is EMA-approved for metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) after androgen receptor pathway inhibition (ARPI) and taxan-based chemotherapy. However, its effect in taxan-naïve patients is under current investigation.

Methods: We relied on the FRAMCAP database to elaborate Lu-PSMA therapy outcomes of progression-free (PFS) and overall (OS) in taxan-naïve mCRPC patients after previous ARPI treatment.

Cancer immunotherapies with antibodies blocking immune checkpoint molecules are clinically active across multiple cancer entities and have markedly improved cancer treatment. Yet, response rates are still limited, and tumour progression commonly occurs. Soluble and cell-bound factors in the tumour microenvironment negatively affect cancer immunity.

Purpose: Several tumor gene mutations are known for metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). The individual response to 177-lutetium prostate specific membrane antigen radioligand therapy (Lu-PSMA) is under current investigation regarding the genomic profile of patients with mCRPC.

Materials And Methods: We relied on the FRAMCAP database and compared progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS) rates of patients with mCRPC with breast cancer-related antigen () or tumor suppressor gene mutations (, , ).

Lu-vipivotide tetraxetan prostate-specific membrane antigen (Lu-PSMA) therapy is under current scientific investigation and aims to become established in the treatment of metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). However, real-world evidence in treatment comparison is scant. We relied on the FRAMCAP database and compared cabazitaxel versus Lu-PSMA therapy in mCRPC patients regarding progression-free survival (PFS) and overall survival (OS).

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigated the relationship between lymphovascular invasion (LVI) and perineural invasion (PNI) in prostate cancer patients who underwent radical prostatectomy and their rates of biochemical recurrence (BCR).
  • Results from 822 patients showed that those with LVI had a five-year BCR-free survival rate of 62%, while those with PNI had a rate of 64%, both lower than their counterparts without these invasions.
  • After adjusting for factors like age, PSA levels, and tumor stage, the association between LVI and PNI with BCR became insignificant, indicating that tumor stage and Gleason Grade were more critical predictors of recurrence.
