Mashup Score: 0
Background: Little is known about the impact of Asian race on the long-term survival outcomes of males with de novo metastatic prostate cancer (PCa). Understanding racial disparities in survival is critical for accurate prognostic risk stratification and for informing the design of multiregional clinical trials. Methods: This multiple-cohort study included individual patient-level data for males with de novo metastatic PCa from the following 3 cohorts: LATITUDE clinical trial data (n=1,199), the SEER program (n=15,476), and the National Cancer Database (NCDB; n=10,366). Primary outcomes were overall survival (OS) in LATITUDE and NCDB and OS and cancer-specific survival in SEER. Results: Across all 3 cohorts, Asian patients diagnosed with de novo metastatic PCa had better survival than white patients. In LATITUDE, median OS was significantly longer in Asian versus white patients in the androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) + abiraterone + prednisone group (not reached vs 43.8 months; hazar

Mashup Score: 2Epidemiology and genomics of prostate cancer in Asian men - 4 year(s) ago
Asia is traditionally considered to have a low incidence of prostate cancer, but the incidence and mortality of prostate cancer have rapidly increased across the continent. Taking into account this intracontinental and intercontinental heterogeneity, translational studies are required in order to develop ethnicity-specific treatment strategies.

Mashup Score: 0Identification of a methylation panel aid in risk stratification in node‐positive penile squamous cell carcinoma - 4 year(s) ago
Patients with node‐positive penile cancer are not a homogeneous group, and new prognostic markers other than the pN stage are urgently needed. Here, the authors developed and validated a methylation …
