SLFN5 regulates LAT1-mediated mTOR activation in castration-resistant prostate cancer

Single Orbital Metastasis in Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Introduction: Orbital metastasis of prostate cancer (PC) is very rare and even more unique in castration-resistant PC (CRPC). In this scenario, choline positron emission tomography/computed tomography (choline PET/CT) is the gold-standard restaging method of choice available in our setting, and new anti-androgens treatments show improvement in overall survival. Case presentation: We report the...

Castration-resistant Prostate CanCer

• Objective: To review therapeutics for castrationresistant prostate cancer (CRPC). • Methods: Literature review. • Results: Targeting of androgen-dependent pathways in CRPC post-chemotherapy has been shown to improve survival with the lyase inhibitor abiraterone and lead to PSA and objective responses with an androgen receptor antagonist (MDV3100). However, the addition of bevacizumab to docet...

Nonmetastatic Castration-Resistant Prostate Cancer

After the introduction of prostate cancer screening with the prostate-specific antigen (PSA) test, we have witnessed a dramatic stage migration. As a result, an increasing number of patients are diagnosed at earlier stages and receive local treatments including surgery or radiation. When these local treatments fail by the definition of increasing PSA levels, patients are usually treated with an...
