Phase 3 PROTEUS: perioperative apalutamide plus ADT met both dual primary endpoints in high-risk localized prostate cancer, raising pCR/MRD rates to 8.9% vs 1.0% and cutting metastasis or death risk by 20%.

Real-world analyses of Novartis' Pluvicto show a median PFS of 13.5 months in taxane-naive mCRPC patients, with better outcomes when used after one ARPI. Additional data indicate subsequent therapies remain effective after Pluvicto, while a separate analysis found gaps in guideline-adherent treatment for mHSPC.

A large clinical trial found that adding apalutamide to hormone therapy before and after prostate cancer surgery improves outcomes for high-risk patients. NHS England will roll out SABR radiotherapy requiring only five sessions, and new ctDNA and robotic biopsy technologies are advancing prostate cancer care.

The FDA has approved three new targeted therapies for different stages of advanced prostate cancer: Truqap for PTEN-deficient tumors, rucaparib for BRCA-mutated castration-resistant disease, and Akeega for BRCA2-mutated castration-sensitive cancer.

European guidelines now recommend lutetium-177 PSMA-617 for advanced prostate cancer, while a machine-learning model predicts treatment radiation dose. A study finds DOACs safe with modern prostate cancer drugs.
May 18, 2026
Novartis reported Phase III PSMAddition data showing Pluvicto plus standard of care cut the risk of PSA progression by 58% in PSMA-positive metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. Regulatory decisions in the United States, China and Japan are expected in the second half of 2026.
Mar 22, 2026
Meta-analysis of seven phase 2 trials shows metastasis-directed therapy plus standard care significantly improves progression-free survival and other endpoints in oligometastatic prostate cancer patients, with a near-significant trend toward improved overall survival.
Mar 21, 2026
Ten-year survival data show salvage focal therapy using heat or cold ablation is as effective as radical prostatectomy for treating localized prostate cancer recurrence after radiotherapy, with significantly fewer complications and better quality of life.
Mar 05, 2026
Medicus Pharma reported Phase 2 SKNJCT-003 topline data showing 73% clinical clearance and 40% histological clearance at Day 57 in the 200μg cohort. Separately, the FDA cleared the company to begin a Phase 2b dose optimization study for Teverelix in advanced prostate cancer.

New research demonstrates that physical activity after cancer diagnosis reduces mortality risk in less common cancers and enhances circadian clock function in tumor tissue, supporting exercise as a therapeutic intervention.
Feb 28, 2026
Pluvicto (lutetium-177 vipivotide tetraxetan) received MHRA authorization for earlier use in metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer, while pooled trial data demonstrates improved progression-free survival without increased toxicity.
Feb 27, 2026
A multi-institutional study found that pairing an investigational immunotherapy with hormone therapy before surgery reduced regulatory T cells in prostate tumors and improved cancer-free outcomes in high-risk patients.
Feb 23, 2026
Another participant with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer achieved undetectable PSA and negative PSMA PET after treatment with 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA in the SECuRE trial. This marks the fifth patient to achieve undetectable disease by radiographic assessment in Clarity Pharmaceuticals' program.
Feb 19, 2026
A randomized trial found that men with prostate cancer treated with the GnRH agonist leuprolide experienced significantly more coronary artery plaque progression than those receiving the GnRH antagonist relugolix, suggesting a biological mechanism for cardiovascular risk differences between ADT drug pathways.
Feb 13, 2026
A matched analysis of 923 men found salvage focal therapy and radical prostatectomy achieved comparable 10-year cancer-specific survival for prostate cancer recurring after radiotherapy, though surgery carried significantly higher complication rates.
