🚨 177Lu-PSMA-617 to ADT + ARPI improves rPFS (PSMAddition) 🚨 @TheLancet 👥 1144 pts w/ PSMA+ metastatic APMN/S #ProstateCancer (50% de novo, 68% high-volume) 📊 Phase 3 RCT, 1:1, open-label, 169 sites, crossover allowed at progression 💊 177Lu-PSMA-617 (7.4 GBq q6w x6) + ADT/ARPI vs ADT/ARPI ⏱️ Median f/u 19.6 mo for rPFS ✅ rPFS HR 0.72 (95% CI 0.58-0.90), p=0.0021; median not reached in either arm BUT👇 ⚠️ G3+ AEs 51% vs 43%; dry mouth 46% vs 4% (all G1-2); more cytopenias and GI events ⚠️ QoL trended worse w/ RLT: time to FACT-P worsening 11.3 vs 17.1 mo (HR 1.14, CI crosses 1); gap seen mainly during treatment cycles, similar arms after week 36 🎯 RLT moves into earlier stage PCa. But we need to keep an eye on QoL @AmerUrological @UroOnc @SUO_YUO @PCFnews @urotoday @UrologyTimes @PCF_Science 🔗shorturl.at/yGNAS

ReRT planning is hard. So we built a free EQD2-based D0.1cc calculator to help estimate remaining OAR reserve across prior RT courses, with both no-forgiveness and time-forgiveness options. Decision support only. Use judgment. Verify independently. #RadOnc #OncTwitter

Will be big moment for Rx of high-risk prostate cancer. Look forward to Dr Taplin reading it out @DanaFarber_GU @gu_onc – at Melbourne, Victoria

What do we want! Diet Coke for everyone!

I hope this messaging sinks in. We are wrong more than we are right, and those who truly care about patients should want to know they are helping more than harming them. Easy to destroy cancer. Much harder to help improve the way a patient experiences life. #AUA26 needs to be a voice to stop all the endorsement of anecdotal medicine and embrace evidence based medicine.
My favorite slide from exciting #AUA26 crossfire discussion so far by @TylerSbrt on M1a PCA. Beware of indirect evidence. We have been burnt before.

ASCO abstracts just released: Super exciting to see that the phase 3 PROTEUS trial will finally being presented in the #ASCO2026 plenary! Perioperative apalutamide + ADT in high-risk localized/locally advanced prostate cancer could mark a true paradigm shift in this space. 🚀 @urotoday @OncoAlert @JNJNews @weoncologists @DrChoueiri @Markuseckstein3 @ProfHadaschik @ViktorGruenwald @imedverse @ASCO @ASCOPost

I wrote this in a moment I never would have chosen. A sudden pause that made me see my life clearly. The meaning of our work is profound. This experience simply helped me see more clearly what matters most. “Time is Finite” JAMA jamanetwork.com/journals/jam…

[177Lu]-PSMA-617-PSMA-617 in oligometastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (BULLSEYE): an open-label, randomised, phase 2 study thelancet.com/journals/lanon… The BULLSEYE phase 2 trial evaluated 177Lu-PSMA-617 in patients with PSMA-expressing oligometastatic hormone-sensitive #ProstateCancer . Compared with deferred ADT💊, treatment significantly reduced early disease progression (7% vs 93%) and📈improved median progression-free survival (25 vs 5 months). Therapy was well tolerated, with mostly low-grade adverse events and no treatment-related deaths. These findings suggest 177Lu-PSMA-617 is a promising option to delay progression in this setting. @dokter_no @NivenMehra @OncoAlert 🚨 @Silke_Gillessen @AOmlin @weoncologists

🧵 Just published in @TheLancet: TORPEdO – the first phase 3 RCT designed specifically to test whether IMPT (proton beam) improves late function & QoL vs modern IMRT in oropharyngeal SCC. Short answer: It doesn’t. Long answer (with the numbers that matter) 👇
