DUBLIN–(BUSINESS WIRE)–The “Prostate Cancer: Update Bulletin” newsletter has been added to ResearchAndMarkets.com’s offering.

This report presents key opinion leader (KOL) views on recent developments in the prostate cancer market.

Topics covered include: Pfizer and Astellas’ announcement in September 2017 that the Phase III PROSPER study evaluating Xtandi (enzalutamide) plus androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) in patients with non-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) met its primary endpoint of improved metastasis-free survival (MFS); the European Commission’s extended approval for Johnson & Johnson’s (J&J’s) Zytiga (abiraterone acetate) to include treatment of patients with newly diagnosed, high-risk, metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC); Bavarian Nordic’s announcement that it was discontinuing the Phase III PROSPECT study of the PSA-targeted immunotherapy candidate PROSTVAC (rilimogene galvacirepvec) in patients with metastatic CRPC (mCRPC); Bayer’s announcement in December 2017 that it will unblind early the ERA223 Phase III study that is investigating Xofigo (radium-223 dichloride) in combination with J&J’s Zytiga in patients with prostate cancer as a result of an imbalance of more fractures and deaths in patients receiving the combination.
