Prostate Cancer Training

This program is designed to enlighten the Prostate cancer care team about the importance of PSMA Imaging and its impact on patient management and care. This multidisciplinary panel discussion provides clinical perspectives on the utility and the implications of using PSMA PET/CT as a theranostic approach and identifies best practices through the shared clinical experiences of Urologists and Medical Oncologists.

Combination Therapy Improves Efficacy in Widespread Prostate Metastatic Disease

A 69-year-old man presented with a persistent rising prostate specific antigen (PSA) of 15.8 ng/mL in September 2019. The patient’s previous PSA readings were 11.4 ng/mL in November 2018 and 12.9 ng/mL in May 2019.

The patient had a known history of prostate cancer and was treated initially with Radical Retropubic Prostatectomy (RRP) for Gleason 3 + 4 = 7. The patient subsequently experienced biochemical recurrences and was treated with salvage external beam radiation therapy, intermittent hormone therapy with leuprolide, and 3 cycles of Provenge.
