Objective: To evaluate the impact of biphosphonate administration on subsequent (153)Samarium-ethylene-diamine-tetramethyl-phosphonate (EDTMP) uptake in bone metastases of patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer.
Patients And Methods: The bone uptake of (153)Sm-EDTMP was assessed in 40 consecutive patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer and multiple painful bone metastases and no prior bisphosphonate therapy. (153)Sm-EDTMP was repeated after 3 months in the presence of bisphosphonates (zoledronic acid every 4 weeks, first administration 1 week after (153)Sm-EDTMP administration). The retained activity in bone was evaluated 20 h after application using whole-body scintigraphy (acquisition 15 cm/min).
Results: Mean patient age was 69 ± 4.8 years (range 57-77 years). Mean PSA level at study entry was 18.2 ± 21.0 ng/ml. (153)Sm-EDTMP uptake ranged from 36.3 to 75.3% (mean 55.1 ± 10.9%) before bisphosphonate administration and 35.6 to 73.3% (mean 55.2 ± 10.4%) after bisphosphonate administration. No significant intra-individual difference with or without bisphosphonate treatment was observed (P = 0.647).
Conclusions: Bisphosphonate treatment does not affect (153)Sm-EDTMP bone uptake in patients with castration-resistant metastatic prostate cancer. Thus, bisphosphonate treatment can be continued safely during samarium therapy.

Background: Most patients with prostate cancer inevitably progress to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC), at which stage chemotherapeutics like docetaxel become the first-line treatment. However, chemotherapy resistance typically develops after an initial period of therapeutic efficacy. Increasing evidence indicates that cancer stem cells confer chemotherapy resistance via exosomes.

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.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second leading cause of cancer-related deaths among American men. The development of metastatic castration resistant PCa (mCRPC) is the current clinical challenge. Antiandrogens such as Enzalutamide (ENZ) are commonly used for CRPC treatment.

Androgen receptor (AR) signaling is a target in prostate cancer therapy and can be treated with non-steroidal anti-androgens (NSAA) including enzalutamide, and apalutamide for patients with advanced disease. Metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCPRC) develop resistance becomes refractory to therapy limiting patient overall survival. Darolutamide is a novel next-generation androgen receptor-signaling inhibitor that is FDA approved for non-metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer (nmCRPC).

The recent evidences provided in metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (nmHSPC) and in nonmetastatic castration resistant (nmCRPC) introduced the possibility to adopt Androgen Receptor Signaling inhibitor (ARSi) alone (both settings) or with chemotherapy (in mHSPC). In daily clinical practice there are some opening questions regarding the inclusion of next generation imaging, mainly PSMA-PET, how integrate local treatment as radiotherapy, how to select patients or drugs in a multiple-choice scenario, and how to manage patients with comorbidities and polypharmacy. These issues led the Italian Society for Uro-Oncology (SIUrO) to develop a consensus project involving all of the most important Italian scientific societies engaged in the multidisciplinary and multiprofessional management of the disease.
