Physician Reasons for or Against Treatment Intensification in Patients With Metastatic Prostate Cancer.

Importance: Clarifying the underutilization of treatment intensification (TI) for metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) may improve implementation of evidence-based medicine and survival outcomes.

Objective: To investigate physicians' beliefs about TI in mCSPC to understand the gap between evidence-based guidelines and clinical practice.

Design, Setting, And Participants: This survey study analyzed data from the Adelphi Real World retrospective survey, which comprised physician surveys that were linked to medical record reviews of US adult patients treated for mCSPC between July 2018 and January 2022.

Real-world data in lupus nephritis: results from a European survey on renal function testing and burden of disease progression.

Objective: Patients with lupus nephritis (LN), a severe renal manifestation of systemic lupus erythematosus, should be monitored for progression of chronic kidney disease to end-stage renal disease but data on renal function testing in LN patients are limited. This real-world analysis aimed to evaluate nephrologists' use of renal function tests to support LN diagnosis and monitoring and to examine the impact of disease progression in LN patients in Europe.

Methods: Data were drawn from the Adelphi Lupus Disease Specific Programme, a cross-sectional survey of nephrologists and their next five consulting patients with LN in France, Germany, Italy, Spain, and the United Kingdom in 2021.

Bowel Urgency in Patients with Ulcerative Colitis and Crohn's Disease: A Cross-Sectional Real-World Survey in Japan.

Introduction: Bowel urgency (BU) is among the most disruptive of inflammatory bowel disease (IBD) symptoms. However, data on its prevalence and association with disease activity are limited. This real-world study of Japanese patients with IBD evaluated BU prevalence and compared clinical outcomes and health-related quality of life (HRQoL) between patients with and without BU.

Clinical Unmet Needs and Treatment Patterns of Paediatric Psoriasis Patients: A Real-World Evidence Study in Spain.

Background And Objective: Real-world evidence of paediatric psoriasis (PsO) is lacking in Spain. The purpose of this study was to identify physician-reported disease burden and current treatment patterns in a real-world paediatric PsO patient cohort in Spain. This will enhance our understanding of the disease and contribute to the development of regional guidelines.

Impact of next-generation hormonal agents on treatment patterns among patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer: a real-world study from the United States, five European countries and Japan.

Background: Until five years ago, the metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) treatment landscape was dominated by the use of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) alone. However, novel hormonal agents (NHAs) and chemotherapy are now approved for male patients with mHSPC. This study aimed to understand the impact NHA approvals had on mHSPC real-world treatment patterns and to identify the key factors associated with NHA or chemotherapy (± ADT) usage vs ADT alone.
