Advanced Prostate Cancer Update: Breaking Barriers

Advanced prostate cancer treatments continue to evolve with new treatments in the M0CRPC, such as daralutamide and apalutamide, precision treatments based on genetic testing including PARP inhibitors and PD1 immunotherapy. Genetic testing is helping to guide treatment and identify high risk familial genetic traits to help identify appropriate screening for family members. This presentation covers these topics and new breakthroughs.
