|
| The authors investigated the application of the RNA in situ hybridization assay for prostate cancer detection in a cohort of 98 patients suspected of harboring prostate cancer. [Journal of Urology] |

|
|
| Combination treatment with NLG207, a nanoparticle-drug conjugate of camptothecin and inhibitor of HIF-1α, and enzalutamide were evaluated in preclinical prostate cancer models of enzalutamide resistance. [Molecular Cancer Therapeutics] |
|
|
|
| Investigators sensitized androgen-independent and TNF-related apoptosis inducing ligand (TRAIL)-resistant prostate cancer cells to TRAIL-mediated apoptosis via taxane therapy and examined the mechanism of sensitization. [Molecular Cancer Therapeutics] |
|
|
|
| Inhibition of glucocorticoid receptor‐mediated glucose transporter 4 suppressed cell proliferation in enzalutamide (Enz)‐resistant prostate cancer cells, which recovered from Enz resistance and cross‐resistance without changes in glucocorticoid receptor expression. [Cancer Science] |
|
|
|
| Given that both androgen receptor (AR) antagonists and histone deacetylase 6 (HDAC6) inhibitors modulate AR signaling, a novel AR/HDAC6 dual inhibitor was investigated for its anticancer effects in castration-resistant prostate cancer. [Aging] |
|
|
|
| Researchers investigated a role for opiorphin genes in prostate cancer (PrCa). Databases and PrCa tissue arrays were screened for opiorphin expression. [Future Oncology] |

|
| Tools for prostate cancer diagnosis have the potential to further improve the identification of men with low-risk disease who can be appropriately managed using active surveillance. [Nature Reviews Urology] |

|
|
| Evaluation of research and clinical trials in gene therapy reveals a concentration of activity in prostate cancer research and practice. [Nature Reviews Urology] |

| ESSA Pharma, Inc. announced that the company has entered into a clinical collaboration and supply agreement with Astellas Pharma, Inc. to evaluate ESSA’s lead product candidate, EPI-7386, in combination with Astellas and Pfizer Inc.’s androgen receptor inhibitor, enzalutamide, in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer.

|
|
| Centre for Probe Development and Commercialization (CPDC) announced that the first patient has been dosed and imaged in a Phase III trial for [18F]Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA)-1007. This diagnostic imaging product is a positron-emitting tomography agent that targets PSMA, a protein that is overexpressed in prostate cancer. [Centre for Probe Development and Commercialization] |
