Homologous Recombination Repair (HRR) Testing and Targeted Therapy in Prostate Cancer

In this episode, Colin C. Pritchard, MD, PhD, a pathologist, and Heather H. Cheng, MD, PhD, a medical oncologist, discuss optimal biomarker testing to guide treatment decisions in advanced prostate cancer, with topics including: Rationale for targeting PARP in prostate cancer with ARI combinationsStudy design nuances and findings from key randomized phase III clinical trials evaluating combination therapy with a PARP inhibitor and ARI, including PROpel, MAGNITUDE, and TALAPRO-2FDA approvals of combination therapy with a PARP inhibitor and ARI, including a comparison of populations based on mutations Optimal biomarker testing for gene mutations in homologous recombination and mismatch repair pathwaysTips for optimal coordination between pathology and medical oncologyPresenters: Heather H.
