Optimizing care and improving outcomes in hormone-sensitive prostate cancer

How can we optimize care for patients with non-metastatic (nm) or metastatic (m) hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC) in practice? Joined by expert guests, podcast series host Bertrand Tombal (Université catholique de Louvain and Cliniques universitaires, Brussels, Belgium) explores a range of topics, including:

  • Barriers and benefits to collaboration across multidisciplinary teams (MDTs)
  • Improving patient outcomes in high-risk biochemical recurrence (BCR)
  • Available approaches and emerging evidence in mHSPC

Access the EMA Summary of Product Characteristics (SmPC) and FDA Prescribing Information (PI) for enzalutamide. Adverse event reporting can be found at the bottom of the page.

How much do you know about optimizing care for people with non-metastatic (nm) or metastatic (m) hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (HSPC)? 
Take this quiz to find out. We’ll ask you the questions again after you’ve watched the HSPC Unlocked podcast series to see what you recall.

1. What is a key challenge in implementing multidisciplinary teams (MDTs) across nations?
2. Which of the following treatments is now recommended by guidelines for patients with high-risk biochemically recurrent (BCR) non-metastatic hormone-sensitive (nmHSPC) prostate cancer who are unsuitable for salvage radiation?
3. Which emerging target is under clinical investigation for metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC)?

Unveiling HSPC care: Collaboration is key1-13

 

It is a multidisciplinary collaboration that really helps to keep the patient whole, even as they go through all of these therapies.
