Article Abstract
We report a 49-year-old male with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) with oligometastasis diagnosed by C-choline positron emission tomography-computed tomography (PET/CT) and treated with target radiotherapy. In the diagnosis of CRPC (serum prostate-specific antigen [PSA] level of 6.53 ng/mL after maximum androgen blockade (MAB) therapy, high-dose brachytherapy, and external beam radiotherapy), C-choline PET/CT detected one tiny obturator lymph node metastasis which fluorodeoxyglucose PET/CT could not detect. He underwent intensity-modulated radiation therapy and MAB was restarted. The PSA value decreased and reached nadir (0.091 ng/mL) after 6 months. The time to PSA progression was 10 months. The choline PET/CT finding and the corresponding local treatment could play an important role in the management sequence of oligoprogressive CRPC.

Development of a novel risk model to predict CRPC progression following IMRT: Implications for tailoring treatment intensity.

Objectives: To develop a novel risk score (RS) model to predict the probability of progression to castration-resistant prostate cancer (PCa) (CRPC) after intensity-modulated radiation therapy (IMRT) for patients with high- and very high-risk PCa according to the National Comprehensive Cancer Network (NCCN) risk classification, since accurate prediction of the clinical outcome of definitive radiation therapy for patients with high- and very high-risk PCa remains challenging due to its heterogeneity.
Materials And Methods: We conducted a retrospective review of 600 patients with high- and very high-risk PCa treated with IMRT at our institution. They were randomly divided into discovery (n = 300) and validation (n = 300) cohorts.
A Phase 1 study of abemaciclib plus abiraterone in Japanese patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

The aim of this Phase 1, multicentre, open-label study was to evaluate the safety, tolerability and pharmacokinetics (PK) of abemaciclib administered at global recommended Phase 2 dose (RP2D) of 200 mg twice daily, combined with standard doses of abiraterone and prednisolone, in Japanese patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). Dose-limiting toxicities (DLTs) were assessed for 28 days post-first dose. Six patients were treated, and all experienced at least one treatment-emergent adverse event (TEAE), mostly low grade; no Grade 4 or 5 TEAEs occurred.

Background: Prostate cancer is one of the principal malignancies threatening human health, and the development of castration resistance often constitutes a major cause of treatment failure in its management.
Methods: To elucidate the potential association between programmed death-ligand 1 (PD-L1) and castration resistance in prostate cancer, we analyzed the expression levels of PD-L1 in both primary prostate cancer tissues and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) specimens as well as in corresponding cell lines by using western blots and immunohistochemistry. Then, we explored the specific mechanisms through transcriptomic sequencing technology.
Deriving Optimal Treatment Timing for Adaptive Therapy: Matching the Model to the Tumor Dynamics.

Adaptive therapy (AT) protocols have been introduced to combat drug resistance in cancer, and are characterized by breaks from maximum tolerated dose treatment (the current standard of care in most clinical settings). These breaks are scheduled to maintain tolerably high levels of tumor burden, employing competitive suppression of treatment-resistant sub-populations by treatment-sensitive sub-populations. AT has been integrated into several ongoing or planned clinical trials, including treatment of metastatic castrate-resistant prostate cancer, ovarian cancer, and BRAF-mutant melanoma, with initial clinical results suggesting that it can offer significant extensions in the time to progression over the standard of care.

Introduction: Prostate cancer (PC), the most common male genitourinary malignancy and second leading cause of global cancer deaths in men, frequently progresses to lethal castration-resistant PC (CRPC). Ginsenoside Rh2 (GRh2), a ginseng-derived bioactive compound, exhibits antitumor potential, but its efficacy and mechanisms in PC remain unclear.
Methods: PC3 cells were treated with GRh2 to assess proliferation (IC50 calculation), migration, and invasion.
