The NCCN Guidelines for Prostate Cancer include recommendations regarding diagnosis, risk stratification and workup, treatment options localized disease, management of recurrent advanced disease clinicians who treat patients with prostate cancer. portions the guidelines included herein focus on roles germline somatic genetic testing, nomograms tumor multigene molecular androgen deprivation therapy, secondary hormonal chemotherapy, immunotherapy in
In the late 1980s and early 1990s, number of newly diagnosed prostate cancers in United States increased dramatically, surpassing lung cancer as most common men. 1 Experts generally believe that these changes resulted from prostate-specific antigen (PSA) screening detected many earlystage cancers.For example, percentage patients with low-risk disease has (45.3% 1999-2001 vs. 29.8% 1989-1992; P < .0001). 2 The incidence 2.0% annually 1995 to 2001 since declined.In 2009, an estimated 192,280...

Prostate cancer has surpassed lung as the most common in men United States. The NCCN Guidelines for Cancer provide multidisciplinary recommendations on clinical management of patients with prostate based evidence and expert consensus. Panel guidance treatment decisions localized disease is represented this version. Significant updates early include distinction between active surveillance observation, a new section principles imaging, revisions to radiation recommendations. full version these...
The NCCN Guidelines for Prostate Cancer provide a framework on which to base decisions regarding the workup of patients with prostate cancer, risk stratification and management localized disease, post-treatment monitoring, treatment recurrence advanced disease. sections included in this article focus metastatic castration-sensitive nonmetastatic castration-resistant cancer (CRPC), CRPC (mCRPC). Androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) intensification is strongly recommended cancer. For CRPC, ADT...
The NCCN Clinical Practice Guidelines in Oncology (NCCN Guidelines) for Prostate Cancer provide multidisciplinary recommendations the clinical management of patients with prostate cancer. These Insights highlight notable recent updates. Abiraterone acetate is a first-in-class hormonal agent that represents new standard care metastatic castration-recurrent cancer who have previously received docetaxel (category 1 recommendation). also category 2B prechemotherapy setting asymptomatic or...

Neoadjuvant chemotherapy (NAC) followed by radical cystectomy improves survival compared with alone for patients bladder cancer. Although gemcitabine cisplatin has become a standard NAC regimen, dose-dense combination of methotrexate, vinblastine, doxorubicin, and (ddMVAC) is being adopted at some institutions.To assess the association neoadjuvant ddMVAC vs regimens downstaging overall among treated cancer.Cross-sectional analysis data extracted from medical records consecutive sample, after...
Abstract Preclinical, epidemiologic, and prior clinical trial data suggest that green tea catechins (GTC) may reduce prostate cancer risk. We conducted a placebo-controlled, randomized of Polyphenon E (PolyE), proprietary mixture GTCs, containing 400 mg (−)-epigallocatechin-3-gallate (EGCG) per day, in 97 men with high-grade prostatic intraepithelial neoplasia (HGPIN) and/or atypical small acinar proliferation (ASAP). The primary study endpoint was comparison the cumulative one-year rates on...
The authors conclude that the overall rate of documentation is low and results show disparities among specific groups. While greater numbers discussions may be occurring, there need to create interventions improve documentation.

Abstract BACKGROUND Patients diagnosed with localized prostate carcinoma need to interpret complicated medical information make an informed treatment selection from among treatments that have comparable efficacy but differing side effects. The authors reported initial results for decision‐making strategies men receiving definitive carcinoma. METHODS One hundred nineteen treated radical prostatectomy (44%) or brachytherapy (56%) consented participate. Guided by a cognitive‐affective theoretic...
BACKGROUND Several investigators have tried to apply salvage focal prostate cryoablation small numbers of patients with biopsy-proven unilateral recurrent cancer (PCa) after radiotherapy the aim decreasing complications cryoablation. We report contemporary outcomes for locally PCa within Cryo On-Line Data (COLD) Registry. METHODS queried COLD Registry identify diagnosed as and treated Patients hormone ablation cryotherapy were excluded. The biochemical disease-free survival morbidities...
To assess the potential complications associated with inguinal lymph node dissection (ILND) across international tertiary care referral centres, and to determine prognostic factors that best predict development of these complications.A retrospective chart review was conducted four cancer centres. The study population 327 patients underwent diagnostic/therapeutic ILND. endpoint overall incidence their respective severity (major/minor). Clavien-Dindo classification system used standardize...
The refinement in the localization of prostate cancer tumor foci through transperineal template-mapping biopsies and MRI has led to an increased interest lesion-directed focal prostatic cryoablation. Data are lacking, however, that compare outcomes whole-gland (WG) ablation therapy (FT). aim our study was assess both oncologic functional between WG FT cryoablation after having matched patients for preoperative characteristics.We with a 1:1 ratio 317 men who underwent treatment Cryo Online...
A reason that the immune system may fail to reject tumors is T cells encounter tumor antigen derived peptides on surface of in a tolerizing rather than activating context since do not express cell co-stimulatory molecules such as B7-1 (CD80). In preclinical models over expression has been shown activate which kill cells. We conducted phase I clinical trial testing this approach patients with metastatic renal carcinoma.Resected from 15 were disaggregated and adapted tissue culture, transduced...
