In this issue of Cancer Cell, Lee and colleagues (2016) define the biologic role of MYCN in promoting prostate tumorigenesis and development of a neuroendocrine phenotype. This has important implications for the clinical management of neuroendocrine prostate cancer as Aurora A kinase inhibitors promoting N-Myc destabilization progress in the clinic.

While radiotherapeutics have demonstrated significant clinical benefit across multiple cancer types including thyroid cancer, neuroendocrine tumors, and prostate cancer, hematological toxicities can be frequent and challenging. It remains unknown to what extent the hematologic toxicity is driven by clonal processes that preexist and are selected for by treatment induced selection pressures. In this review, we discuss the background leading to the adoption of radiotherapeutics in the treatment of solid tumor malignancies, the risk of hematologic toxicities and myeloid neoplasms and the evidence pointing to potential precursor lesions that may predispose patients to hematologic toxicities.

Chronic prostatitis/chronic pelvic pain syndrome (CP/CPPS) represents a prevalent condition within the male genitourinary system. CP/CPPS occurs in men of varying ages, with an increasing recurrence rate associated with advancing age. The pathogenesis of CP/CPPS remains unclear, and clinical treatment typically focuses on symptom management with limited efficacy, resulting in significant economic and psychological burdens for patients.

Androgen-indifferent prostate cancer (AIPC) is increasingly common and particularly lethal. Data describing these tumors are sparse, and AIPC remains a poorly understood malignancy. Utilizing the Oncology Research Information Exchange Network (ORIEN) database, we enriched for tumors with features of AIPC using previously described characteristics.

Background: Metastasis is a leading cause of cancer-related death in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients. Circular RNAs (circRNAs) have emerged as key regulators of the metastasis of various cancers. However, the functional effects and regulatory mechanisms of circRNAs in metastatic CRPC (mCRPC) remain largely unknown.

Patient stratification remains a challenge for optimal treatment of prostate cancer (PCa). This clinical heterogeneity implies intra-tumoural heterogeneity, with different prostate epithelial cell subtypes not all targeted by current treatments. We reported that such cell subtypes are traceable in liquid biopsies through representative transcripts.
