A Step Toward Treating Chemotherapy-Resistant Prostate Cancer

Prostate cancer is a leading cause of death among American men, and it's resistant to one of the most powerful chemotherapy medications -- cisplatin. Now, researchers have developed the first therapy of its kind that disrupts prostate cancer cells' metabolism and releases cisplatin into the ...

A New Combination Therapy Regimen Shows Promising Results for Prostate Cancer

The combination of two oral medications has shown positive results in people with prostate cancer, whose disease has spread to other parts of the body. Compared with XTANDI plus placebo, the investigatory combination of TALZENNA and XTANDI ...

Mediterranean Diet the Best Prevention Against Prostate Cancer

New research shows that men who stick to a predominantly Mediterranean diet are less likely to be diagnosed with prostate cancer. This diet also improves their chances of recovery if they have PC and are undergoing radiation ...

The New Prostate Cancer Blood Test With 94 Per Cent Accuracy

Researchers have helped develop a new blood test to detect prostate cancer with greater accuracy than current methods. New research shows that the Prostate Screening EpiSwitch (PSE) blood test is 94 per cent accurate -- beating the currently used prostate-specific antigen (PSA) blood test. The ...
