Article Abstract

Primary prostatic adenocarcinoma (pPC) undergoes genomic evolution secondary to therapy-related selection pressures as it transitions to metastatic noncastrate (mNC-PC) and castrate resistant (mCR-PC) disease. Next generation sequencing results were evaluated for pPC (n = 97), locally advanced disease (involving urinary bladder/rectum, n = 12), mNC-PC (n = 21), and mCR-PC (n = 54). We identified enrichment of TP53 alterations in high-grade pPC, TP53/RB1 alterations in HGNE disease, and AR alterations in metastatic and castrate resistant disease. Actionable alterations (MSI-H phenotype and HRR genes) were identified in approximately a fifth of all cases. These results help elucidate the landscape of genomic alterations across the clinical spectrum of 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.

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.

A 60-year-old man with idiopathic portal hypertension and ascites presented with fever, abdominal pain, and right scrotal swelling. He was diagnosed with spontaneous bacterial peritonitis (SBP) and a communicating right hydrocele, and antibiotic treatment was initiated. Despite treatment, his fever and elevated inflammatory markers persisted, accompanied by progressive genital pain.
