PROGRAM OVERVIEW

Hormone-based intervention with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) has been the cornerstone of treatment for men with advanced prostate cancer (PCa) for decades, since the first gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) agonists was introduced in 1985. This critical advance remained the standard of care until the approval of the first GnRH antagonist in 2008. The GnRH antagonists, degarelix and oral relugolix, have an immediate onset of action with no associated testosterone surge. Additionally, GnRH antagonists have been associated with fewer adverse cardiovascular events, which prompted some genitourinary oncologists to call for a new standard of care for patients with PCa who have or are at high risk for cardiovascular disease. By participating in this activity, clinicians will gain a better understanding of the current landscape of PCa treatment with an emphasis on the most recent clinical data and approvals.
