Among prostate cancer patients, those without obesity are more likely to experience earlier recovery in urinary function after radical prostatectomy and have better sexual function both before and after the procedure, as reported in a study.

In patients with metastatic castration-sensitive prostate cancer, triplet therapy may be ideal for fit patients with synchronous (de novo) high-volume disease while the androgen pathway inhibitor (API) doublet combinations may be preferred for those with metachronous (recurrent) low-volume disease, according to the results of a meta-analysis.

Triplet therapy with darolutamide, androgen-deprivation therapy (ADT) and docetaxel improves overall survival (OS) by approximately 30 percent vs ADT plus docetaxel in most disease volume and risk subgroups of patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC), a post hoc analysis of the phase III ARASENS trial has shown.

Two researchers from the Philippines have discovered a gene the connects breast cancer development to stress and body clock disruption.
