Prostate Cancer: A Journey Through Its History and Recent Developments.

Prostate cancer is one of the most common diseases among men worldwide and continues to pose a serious threat to health. This review shows the history and the new developments in the management of prostate cancer, with an emphasis on a range of therapeutic approaches, such as hormone therapy, radiation therapy, surgery, and innovative targeted therapeutics. The evolution of these treatments is examined in light of clinical outcomes, patient quality of life, and emerging resistance mechanisms, such as the recently shown vitamin D-based strategies. New developments that have the potential to increase survival rates and reduce side effects are also discussed, including PARP inhibitors (PARPis), immunotherapy, and tailored medication. Additionally, the use of biomarkers and sophisticated imaging methods in therapeutic decision-making is explored, with a focus on how these tools might improve patient care. The absolute necessity for a multidisciplinary approach for improving treatment strategies is becoming more and more apparent as our understanding of the biology of prostate cancer deepens. This approach ensures that patients receive customized medicines that fit their unique profiles. Future avenues of investigation will focus on resolving issues dealing with treatment efficacy and resistance to improve treatment results, ultimately leading to disease cure for prostate cancer patients.
