Background: The Androgen Receptor (AR) has emerged as an endocrine therapy target in Breast Cancer, exhibiting up to 80% expression in clinical cases. AR-V7, a constitutively activated splice variant of AR with a truncated ligand-binding domain (LBD), demonstrates ligand-independent transcriptional activity and resistance to nonsteroidal antiandrogens like Bicalutamide or Enzalutamide, targeting the LBD. In metastatic prostate cancer, elevated AR-V7 levels lead to therapeutic resistance and increased metastasis.

Article Synopsis
  • * There is insufficient knowledge on which CECs to monitor and how to evaluate their environmental impact, highlighting the need for improved understanding to inform regulations and guidelines for wastewater reuse.
  • * This review identifies specific CECs hindering wastewater reuse and introduces a comprehensive methodology to assess and prioritize them based on their ecological and health hazards, revealing that several pharmaceuticals pose significant risks.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates the real-world occurrence of adverse events (AEs) in patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer (mCSPC) receiving various treatments, reflecting a gap between current recommendations and actual practice.
  • Data was collected from a large claims review in the U.S. between January 2014 and June 2021, focusing on 10 common AEs that significantly affect patient outcomes.
  • A total of 4,145 patients were analyzed, with different treatment groups including ADT alone, ADT with nonsteroidal anti-androgens, docetaxel, and androgen receptor pathway inhibitors, enabling a comparison of AEs across these groups.

Prostate cancer (PCa) is the second most common cancer diagnosed in men. While radical prostatectomy and radiotherapy are often successful in treating localised disease, post-treatment recurrence is common. As the androgen receptor (AR) and androgen hormones play an essential role in prostate carcinogenesis and progression, androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) is often used to deprive PCa cells of the pro-proliferative effect of androgens.

Article Synopsis
  • The study investigates how changes in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels at 3 and 7 months of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) relate to overall survival in patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC).
  • Results show that a complete response (CR) in PSA at both 3 and 7 months significantly correlates with improved overall survival compared to no response, with specific statistical measures supporting this association.
  • The findings suggest that monitoring PSA levels can help identify patients at higher risk of death, aiding in treatment decisions and the design of future clinical trials.
