Prostate Cancer has a multitude of presentations, but when metastatic, it usually spreads directly to the lymph nodes or the bones. This episode focuses on the contentious definition of "M0 Castrate Resistant Prostate Cancer (CRPC)", also known as Nonmetastatic CRPC. Does this definition exist, and what role will PSMA PET have in this cohort of patients? The second trial, TITAN looks at apalutamide, another ARPI/ARSI and how it compares to it's cousins who are fighting for the top spot in the prostate cancer world.

Studies discussed in the episode:

ARAMIS

TITAN

This week, we interview Dr. Cristofanilli, a globally recognised expert in inflammatory breast cancer research and precision medicine. With decades of clinical experience and groundbreaking contributions to translational research, he has transformed the way we approach metastatic breast cancer, leading advances in liquid biopsy, molecular profiling, and targeted therapies.

Dr Cristofanilli serves as the Director of Bresat Medical Oncology, Associated Director of Precision Oncology at the Meyer Cancer Centre and the co-leader of the MCC Breast Cancer Disease Management team, along with the Scientific Director of the Englander Institute of Precision Medicine.

Today, we discuss the role of triplet therapy (ie, chemotherapy and androgen receptor signalling inhibitor and ADT) in high-volume metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer and whether darolutamide is equivalent to the other androgen receptor signalling inhibitors in the castrate-sensitive space. Two good trials, and as always, some interesting discussion points.

ARASENS

The rise and rise of Androgen Receptor Pathway (or Signalling) Inhibitors has changed the world of metastatic prostate cancer forever. What was once a cancer with a finite number of treatment options has flourished into a chasm of therapies, many more effective and less toxic than their therapeutic grandparents.

Our final breast cancer episode is here! Today, we are talking about the role of Gene Expression Assays in early hormone receptor-positive breast cancer management. The specific questions we asked included when we can de-escalate and for which cohort of patients these assays can be used. There's lots more to this episode, but we explore the role of Oncotype Dx!

This week, we prematurely dive into prostate cancer (one breast episode remaining - whoops!), where we explore the early pivotal trials, including the role of abiraterone in metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer and the use of docetaxel in high and low-volume prostate cancer.

As our breast cancer journey comes close to finishing, it was always the destiny of your cohost's on Oncology for the Inquisitive Mind to talk about HER2-positive breast cancer. This week, we target both antibody-drug conjugate therapy and targeted therapy (trastuzumab deruxtecan and pertuzumab). While HER2-positive cancer's survival is one of the best for metastatic disease, this was not always the case.

Studies discussed in the episode:

DESTINY 03

Metastatic Triple Negative Breast Cancer is one of the most challenging breast cancer subtypes to treat. Recurrence rates can be as high as 40%. This episode covers the role of immunotherapy and antibody-drug conjugates in the advanced space. Once again, targetable receptors are lacking but research is underway!
