The aim of this study was to evaluate hormonal recovery after cessation androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in a group elderly prostate cancer patients.Forty patients with locally advanced or metastatic cancer, mean age 71.5 years [95% confidence interval (CI) 69.1-73.9], were treated ADT for duration 74.6 months (95% CI 59.7-89.5 months). Mean follow-up time 36.5 30.6-42.3 Serum testosterone and luteinizing hormone (LH) determined at 6 month intervals cessation.After 18 follow-up, all had...

The correct identification of extracapsular extension (ECE) prostate cancer (PCa) on multiparametric magnetic resonance imaging (mpMRI) is crucial for surgeons in order to plan the nerve-sparing approach radical prostatectomy. Nerve-sparing strategies allow better outcomes preserving erectile function and urinary continence, notwithstanding this can be penalized with worse oncologic results. aim study was assess ability preoperative mpMRI predict ECE final prostatic specimen (PS) identify...

TPS209 Background: Multiple lines of evidence suggest a crosstalk between androgen receptor (AR) signaling and DNA damage repair (DDR) in prostate cancer. Co-targeting both pathways mHNPC can result clinically relevant synergistic effect. ZZFIRST trial is evaluating the combination TALA –a poly(ADP-ribose) polymerase inhibitor– EZ –an AR patients. Methods: This multicenter, open-label, randomized, investigator-initiated phase 2 clinical trial. Men aged ≥18 years with histologically confirmed...

Abstract Purpose Metastatic prostate cancer (mPC) is enriched for homologous recombination repair (HRR) gene alterations; these biomarkers have prognostic and predictive value. Next-generation sequencing (NGS) allows patient stratification based on biomarkers, but widespread clinical implementation still limited. Moreover, not all mutations in HRR genes result functional loss the tumor. We investigated correlation between genomic of HRR, using NGS an optimized RAD51 immunofluorescence...

Pelvic lymph node dissection (PLND) is the most accurate procedure for (LN) staging in prostate cancer (PCa) patients. LN sectioning and hematoxylin eosin (H&E) staining of at least one slice remains gold standard evaluation, potentially leading to misdetection small metastatic focus. Entire analysis possible with One-Step Nucleic Acid Amplification (OSNA) by detecting cytokeratin 19 (CK19) mRNA as a surrogate invasion. This study aimed compare postoperative performance OSNA pooling...
