Course Description: Incorporating the most updated AUA/ASTRO/SUO APC Guidelines, this course will be comprehensive in the approach to the diagnosis, management and outcomes of men with advanced, metastatic hormone sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC) and castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). The course will include germline testing, PSMA positron emission tomography imaging, and the use of androgen deprivation therapy in combination with novel androgen axis therapy and chemotherapy in men with newly diagnosed metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer. The role of treatment intensification in mHSPC will be discussed. The course will also cover nonmetastatic CRPC and treatment for metastatic CRPC. The use of sequencing, combination therapy, germline and somatic testing, precision medicine with PARP inhibitors and theranostics will also be discussed. The course will also cover emerging salvage therapies for CRPC.
