Evidence Behind Prostate Cancer Treatments
PCF Chief Medical Officer Dr. Phillip Koo leads a conversation with urologists Dr. Michael Bivins (Urology Centers of Alabama) and Dr. Benjamin Lowentritt (Chesapeake Urology).
Learn how physicians consider the scientific research – clinical trials and real world evidence – behind every treatment plan, and how they discuss this with their patients. Drs. Bivins and Lowentritt describe how it’s important to first establish trust and understand a patient’s personal goals and expectations for treatment.
They discuss examples of how evidence helps guide common decision points in prostate cancer:
- Choosing between prostatectomy and radiation therapy
- Understanding when focal therapy may be appropriate
- How therapies such as androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) and sipuleucel-T may be used in advanced prostate cancer
PCF thanks Dendreon for their support of this program.
