Webinar: Common Dilemmas in Prostate Cancer Detection and Management (2020)

August 26, 2020

Course Director: Gerald R. Andriole, Jr. MD

Course participants will:

Optimally use PSA and other biomarkers to minimize unnecessary testing and biopsy when screening men who are at average risk for prostate cancer.

Understand the principles of “risk-adapted” screening for men at elevated risk for prostate cancer based on race, family history, early in life PSA, polygenic risk scores, and specific genetic mutations (eg BRCA1/2).

Understand the roles of MRI, high frequency ultrasound and novel transperineal approaches to improve prostate biopsy.

Understand the role of PET imaging in men with prostate cancer, especially those with biochemical recurrence and the rationale for metastasis-directed therapy in these men.

Learn to treat men with locally advanced prostate cancer with multimodal approaches.

Learn how to choose and sequence hormonal, chemotherapeutic, immunologic and/or targeted approaches (eg, PARP inhibitors) in men with metastatic and castrate resistant prostate cancer.
