New trial tests strategies to protect heart health during prostate cancer therapy

City of Hope, one of the largest and most advanced cancer research and treatment organizations in the United States with its National Medical Center ranked among the nation's top cancer centers by U.S. News & World Report, has opened a phase 2 clinical trial comparing three different strategies for protecting heart health in prostate cancer patients who receive androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), a potentially lifesaving hormone therapy.

Metabolic reprogramming drives prostate cancer progression and treatment resistance

Prostate cancer (PCa) is one of the most common malignant tumors among men worldwide. Following androgen deprivation therapy (ADT), the disease often progresses to castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC).

Pre-surgical medication use grows for pancreatic, gynecologic, and abdominal lining cancers

The second annual report from the National Cancer Database (NCDB) of the American College of Surgeons (ACS) documents a substantial rise in medication treatments, such as chemotherapy, immunotherapy, and hormone therapy, used before surgery to treat many cancers, often allowing less invasive surgery and helping clinicians assess how a patient's cancer responds to medication to guide the most effective treatment options.

Study tests combined targeted radiopharmaceuticals and precision radiation for recurrent prostate cancer

Investigators at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center have opened a clinical trial that will look at whether combining precision radiation with a targeted radioactive therapy drug can help patients with recurrent prostate cancer delay progression, while delaying or avoiding the side effects of long-term hormone therapy.

Advanced AI provides accurate guidance for prostate cancer patients

Mayo Clinic researchers have developed and evaluated MedEduChat, an electronic health record (EHR) that works with a large language model to provide accurate, patient-specific prostate cancer education.

Dietary exposure to food preservatives associated with higher cancer incidence

Higher intake of food preservatives, widely used in industrially processed foods and beverages to extend shelf-life, is associated with a modestly increased risk of cancer, finds a study from France published by The BMJ today.

Breakthrough treatment for advanced prostate cancer could eliminate severe side effects

Researchers at Case Western Reserve University have developed a treatment for advanced prostate cancer that could eliminate a side effect so debilitating that patients often refuse the life-saving therapy.

AI model can predict a person's disease risk using sleep data

A poor night's sleep portends a bleary-eyed next day, but it could also hint at diseases that will strike years down the road.

New trial aims to improve both survival and quality of life for men with advanced prostate cancer

The Alliance for Clinical Trials in Oncology has launched a randomized phase III clinical trial called RECIPROCAL (Alliance A032304) to explore whether doctors can optimize the timing of targeted radiation therapy to minimize side effects while preserving efficacy in men with advanced prostate cancer.

Triaptosis could be a promising strategy in the fight against cancer

Cancer remains one of the most critical global public health challenges, exerting profound social, economic, and clinical burdens while limiting gains in human life expectancy.

Generative AI aids discovery of ISM3830's novel scaffold

Casitas B-lineage lymphoma-b (CBLB) is an E3 ubiquitin–protein ligase that functions as an intracellular checkpoint and master negative regulator of T‑cell and natural killer (NK) cell activation, playing a central role in modulating T-cell activation and immune tolerance, and its inhibition enhances T cells and NK cells function, also provides a strategy for the function restoration of exhausted T cells.

Shorter hormone therapy may be enough for many men with prostate cancer

A study co-led by investigators at the UCLA Health Jonsson Comprehensive Cancer Center found that most of the benefits of androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for prostate cancer occur within the first 9 to 12 months.

Genetic signals reveal why erectile dysfunction develops and who is most at risk

This multi-ancestry genomic study identifies key genetic loci underlying erectile dysfunction and shows that ED risk is shaped by both cardiometabolic and substance use–related genetic pathways. Using EHR-linked data, the researchers uncover SIM1-related mechanisms, modest PRS performance, and bidirectional genetic links with obesity, diabetes, and addiction traits.
