New research led by Dr. @AmarUKishan shows combining PSMA-targeted radioligand therapy with SBRT reduces recurrent prostate cancer progression risk by 62%. By targeting visible tumors & microscopic cells, it delays the need for hormone therapy. ucla.in/4iicLnT

A new study led by @AmarUKishan found that while traditional pathological features can identify prostate cancer patients at higher risk of worse outcomes, they do not predict who will benefit more from adding hormone therapy to postoperative radiation. bit.ly/4z8dy1j

Study finds traditional prostate cancer risk factors do not predict hormone therapy benefit

Study highlights the need for molecular biomarkers that can better predict treatment response and personalize treatment based on tumor biology.

#LungCancer screening saves lives — but current criteria miss nearly half of future cases. Dr. Drew Moghanaki explains why change is needed. More from @nytimes: nyti.ms/487lYco

America’s Deadliest Cancer Has Abysmal Screening Rates

If everyone eligible had a lung cancer screening, 62,000 lives would be saved over five years, a new study shows.

A new @JAMAOnc study co-led by @AmarUKishan suggests shorter courses of androgen deprivation therapy may reduce risks while maintaining effective cancer control. bit.ly/487Aelm

Study suggests many men may not need long-term hormone therapy for prostate cancer

Shorter courses of hormone therapy may be sufficient for many patients, reducing side effects while maintaining effectiveness.
