Metastatic Hormone Sensitive Prostate Cancer: Expert Guidance for Urologists Webcast (2021)

In just the last decade, the FDA has approved several new therapies for the treatment of prostate cancer. It is critical for urologists to understand the sequencing of agents for the treatment of mHSPC because of the overlapping toxicities and the increasing role for treating mHSPC patients. For each new agent, urologists should be able to identify the active agents and their mechanism of action, analyze the breakthrough treatments in the management of advanced and mHSPC, and describe the indications and combinations for treatment with approved agents in the management of mHSPC. In 2020, the Advanced Prostate Cancer: AUA/ASTRO/SUO Guideline was released and will provide critical guidance as the management of advanced prostate cancer patients continues to expand.

To increase urologists understanding of how to translate the latest scientific advances and the Advanced Prostate Cancer: AUA/ASTRO/SUO Guideline into their clinical practice, the featured 60-minute panel discussion includes a thorough discussion of new trials and approval of agents directed at the androgen axis for treatment of mHSPC. Faculty will highlight the management of patients with advanced prostate cancer and how therapeutic options have been incorporated into evidence-based guidelines.
