Overexpression of Transmembrane Phosphatase with Tensin homology (TPTE) in prostate cancer is clinically significant, suggesting its potential as a valuable biomarker
CONCLUSION: Our findings indicate that increased TPTE expression is associated with progression of disease. The ability of anti-TPTE-p2 antibody to recognize and target the TPTE protein makes it a potential biomarker to assess and/or target the PCa.PMID:38546751 | PMC:PMC10978697 | DOI:10.1007/s00432-024-05694-6 (Source: Clinical Prostate Cancer)

Mediator kinase inhibition reverses castration resistance of advanced prostate cancer
J Clin Invest. 2024 Mar 28:e176709. doi: 10.1172/JCI176709. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTMediator kinases CDK19 and CDK8, pleiotropic regulators of transcriptional reprogramming, are differentially regulated by androgen signaling but both kinases are upregulated in castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). Genetic or pharmacological inhibition of CDK8 and CDK19 reverses the castration-resistant phenotype and restores the sensitivity of CRPC xenografts to androgen deprivation in vivo. Prolonged CDK8/19 inhibitor treatment combined with castration not only suppresses the growth of CRPC xenografts but also induces tumor r...

Decision regret of cancer patients after radiotherapy: results from a cross-sectional observational study at a large tertiary cancer center in Germany
CONCLUSIONS: The German version of the DRS could be used to assess decision regret in a diverse cohort of cancer patients undergoing radiotherapy. Decision regret was prevalent in a considerable proportion of patients. Further studies are necessary to validate these findings and obtain causal factors associated with decision regret after radiotherapy.PMID:38546873 | PMC:PMC10978708 | DOI:10.1007/s00432-024-05638-0 (Source: Clinical Prostate Cancer)

A phase I trial of enzalutamide plus selective glucocorticoid receptor modulator relacorilant in patients with metastatic castration resistant prostate cancer
CONCLUSIONS: This is the first prospective trial combining an AR antagonist and a non-steroidal selective GR modulator. The combination was safe and well tolerated with PSA response and prolonged disease control observed in a limited subset of patients. Further prospective trials are justified to evaluate efficacy and identify predictive biomarkers of response.PMID:38536082 | DOI:10.1158/1078-0432.CCR-23-3636 (Source: Clinical Prostate Cancer)

An Unexpected Seminal Vesicle Pitfall in PSMA PET
Clin Nucl Med. 2024 Mar 25. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000005183. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 76-year-old man undergoing hormone therapy for prostate cancer was referred for 68Ga-PSMA-11-PET (PSMA PET) due to persistently detectable PSA level. No PSMA-positive tumor lesions were detected, so a delayed phase imaging was performed, which revealed focal PSMA uptake in the right seminal vesicle together with contrast accumulation on excretory phase contrast-enhanced CT. These findings were finally determined to be secondary to urinary reflux as a consequence of a prostatic enucleation he had undergone 5 months earlier followi...

Enchondroma on Bone Scan and PSMA PET/CT in a Patient With Prostate cancer

Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 54-year-old man with Gleason 9 prostate cancer with reported nodal and skeletal metastases was referred to us. Outside hospital reports described abnormal left proximal humerus activity on bone scan concerning for metastasis; however, concurrent PSMA PET/CT did not show activity in this lesion. Further review of the PET/CT images revealed characteristic features of enchondroma in the left humeral lesion.PMID:38537209 | DOI:10.1097/RLU.0000000000005205 (Source: Clinical Prostate Cancer)

Complete Resolution of Locally Advanced Prostate Cancer After Molecular Endoradiotherapy With 177Lu-PSMA
Clin Nucl Med. 2024 Mar 25. doi: 10.1097/RLU.0000000000005163. Online ahead of print.ABSTRACTA 76-year-old man with castration-resistant prostate cancer underwent 68Ga-prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA) PET/CT for restaging. A large PSMA-avid tumor with invasion to adjacent organs was noted causing gross hematuria and symptomatic anemia. Two cycles of 177Lu-PSMA were administered, and the patient showed significant reduction of hematuria as well as declining in PSA levels. 177Lu-PSMA therapy can be a good treatment option in patients with locally invasive tumors.PMID:38537212 | DOI:10.1097/RLU.0000000000005163 (Sour...

Intense PSMA Uptake in Solitary Fibrous Tumor of the Seminal Vesicle
We describe 18F-PSMA-1007 PET/CT findings in a case of prostate adenocarcinoma with a solitary fibrous tumor of the left seminal vesicle. The solitary fibrous tumor showed intense 18F-PSMA-1007 uptake mimicking metastatic prostate adenocarcinoma. This case indicates that solitary fibrous tumor may cause false-positive result when using PSMA PET in staging of prostate cancer.PMID:38537218 | DOI:10.1097/RLU.0000000000005195 (Source: Clinical Prostate Cancer)
