Objective: This study aimed to develop an explainable radiomics model for stratifying prostate cancer (PCa) patients with high-risk disease via investigation of the association between cell density (CD) in the PCa region on histopathological images and multiparametric MR (mpMR) radiomics features. Materials and methods: 137,970 radiomic features were calculated from mpMR images (101 PCa regions of 44 patients), and joint histograms (JHs) were derived from dynamic contrast-enhanced (DCE) images for each PCa region. The association between CD on histopathological images and its corresponding mpMR radiomic features in PCa regions for various grade groups and the three risk groups was evaluated using Spearman’s correlation coefficient. To validate the potential of the radiomic-feature-CD association, we developed the radiomics model for stratifying patients into low/intermediate-risk and high-risk groups. Results: There were moderate correlations of the CD with a DCE-based texture feature (WV_HH_1st_GLSZM_ZP) (ρ = 0.609, p = 0.024) and DCE-JH feature (JH_WV_HL_1st versus 5th‐1st_Hist_STD) (ρ = 0.609, p = 0.024) in the high-risk group. The radiomics model had an accuracy of 0.920 for stratifying the patients of a test dataset into the low/intermediate-risk and high-risk groups. Conclusion: The association between CD and mpMR features can be leveraged to develop the explainable radiomics for the high-risk stratification of patients with PCa.

BACKGROUND: Proton pump inhibitors (PPIs) are widely used due to their affordability and minimal severe side effects. However, their influence on the efficacy of cancer treatments, particularly androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSIs), remains unclear. This study investigates the impact of PPI usage on the treatment outcomes in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC). METHODS: A total of 117 mCRPC patients were retrospectively analyzed and divided into two groups based on the concomitant use of PPI at the initiation of ARSI treatment: PPI+ (n = 38) and PPI- (n = 79). Patient characteristics, including age at ARSI treatment administered, prostate-specific antigen (PSA) value at ARSI treatment administered, International Society of Urological Pathology grade group at prostate biopsy, metastatic site at ARSI treatment administered, prior docetaxel (DTX) treatment, and type of ARSI (abiraterone acetate or enzalutamide) were recorded. Progression-free survival (PFS), overall survival (OS), and PSA response rates were compared between the two groups. Patients were further stratified by clinical background to compare PFS and OS between the two groups. RESULTS: The PPI- group exhibited significantly extended PFS and a trend toward improved OS. For PSA response (reduction of 50% or more from baseline), the rates were 62.3% and 45.9% in the PPI- group and the PPI+ group, respectively. For deep PSA response (reductions of 90% or more from baseline), the rates were 36.4% and 24.3% in the PPI- group and the PPI+ group, respectively. The effects were consistent across subgroups divided by prior DTX treatment and type of ARSI administered. CONCLUSIONS: The administration of PPIs appears to diminish the therapeutic efficacy of ARSIs in mCRPC patients. Further prospective studies are needed to confirm these findings and explore the biological mechanisms involved.

BACKGROUND: This study aimed to show the association between tumor location and laterality of positive lymph nodes by evaluating biopsy and magnetic resonance imaging (MRI) findings, and to optimize the extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) side for prostate cancer. METHODS: The study enrolled patients who underwent robot-assisted radical prostatectomy with ePLND. Tumor locations were determined according to International Society of Urological Pathology grade group 4/5 in biopsies and Prostate Imaging-Reporting and Data System category 4/5 in MRI results. The concordance of tumor location lobe and positive lymph node side with the performance of tumor location-guided ePLND for positive lymph node detection was evaluated. RESULTS: For 301 patients who underwent ePLND at Kyushu University Hospital, tumor locations determined by biopsy and MRI findings showed no lesion in 8 (2.7%) patients, unilateral lobe in 223 (74.1%) patients, and bilateral lobe in 70 (23.3%) patients. The accuracies for detection of any and all positive lymph nodes by tumor location-guided unilateral ePLND were 99.6% and 97.3%, respectively. Among the patients at St. Luke's International Hospital, the accuracies for detection of any and all positive lymph nodes by tumor location-guided unilateral ePLND were estimated to be 99.0% and 97.3%, respectively. CONCLUSIONS: This study proposed tumor location-guided ePLND according to biopsy and MRI findings. This novel strategy is expected to reduce the burden of bilateral ePLND at the cost of acceptable risk of failing to detect positive lymph nodes.

Androgen receptor (AR)-targeting therapy induces oxidative stress in prostate cancer. However, the mechanism of oxidative stress induction by AR-targeting therapy remains unclear. This study investigated the mechanism of oxidative stress induction by AR-targeting therapy, with the aim to develop novel therapeutics targeting oxidative stress induced by AR-targeting therapy. Intracellular reactive oxygen species (ROS) was examined by fluorescence microscopy and flow cytometry analysis. The effects of silencing gene expression and small molecule inhibitors on gene expression and cytotoxic effects were examined by quantitative real-time PCR and cell proliferation assay. ROS induced by androgen depletion co-localized with peroxisomes in prostate cancer cells. Among peroxisome-related genes, PPARA was commonly induced by AR inhibition and involved in ROS production via PKC signaling. Inhibition of PPARα by specific siRNA and a small molecule inhibitor suppressed cell proliferation and increased cellular sensitivity to the antiandrogen enzalutamide in prostate cancer cells. This study revealed a novel pathway by which AR inhibition induced intracellular ROS mainly in peroxisomes through PPARα activation in prostate cancer. This pathway is a promising target for the development of novel therapeutics for prostate cancer in combination with AR-targeting therapy such as antiandrogen enzalutamide.

Our objective was to investigate the long-term functional outcomes of robot-assisted partial nephrectomy (RAPN) combined with three-dimensional (3D) imaging. The 3D images, reconstructed using computed tomography, were introduced in RAPN procedures. The demographic, oncological, functional, and volumetric outcomes of 296 patients who underwent RAPN with and without 3D imaging between 2013 and 2021 were analyzed retrospectively. Propensity score matching (1:1) was performed to adjust for potential baseline confounders. After matching, 71 patients were allocated to each group. In the 3D RAPN (3DRPN) group, functional outcomes significantly improved: the number of patients with over 90% estimated glomerular filtration rate (eGFR) preservation rate (40 vs. 43, P = 0.044), eGFR preservation rate (88.0% vs. 91.6%, P = 0.006), the number of patients with chronic kidney disease (CKD) upstaging (26 vs. 13, P = 0.023), and split renal function preservation rate (operated kidney: 84.9% vs. 88.5%, P = 0.015). The 3DRPN group showed superiority in terms of >90% eGFR preservation (P = 0.010), CKD upstaging-free survival rates (P < 0.001), and volumetric outcomes (excess parenchymal volume: 27.9 vs. 17.7 mL, P = 0.030; parenchyma volume preservation rate: 81.6% vs. 88.8%, P = 0.006). Three-dimensional imaging was positively associated with eGFR preservation (P = 0.023, odds ratio: 2.34) and prevention of CKD upstaging (P = 0.013, odds ratio: 2.90). In this study, RAPN combined with 3D imaging underscored the preservation of eGFR > 90% and the prevention of CKD upstaging by improving the preservation rate of renal parenchyma and split renal function.

In the last decade, the standard treatment for advanced renal cell carcinoma (RCC) has evolved, mainly driven by the development and approval of immune checkpoint inhibitors (ICIs). Currently, ICI monotherapy and ICI-based combinations with tyrosine kinase inhibitors and targeted therapies against mammalian target of rapamycin or vascular endothelial growth factor have become new standard treatments for first-line and subsequent-line therapies. ICIs play an important role as an adjuvant postoperative therapy, and this field is the subject of active research. Furthermore, ongoing randomized controlled trials are investigating the clinical value of more intense treatments by combining multiple effective treatments for RCC. Additionally, novel biomarkers for prognosis have been investigated. This study reviews the current evidence on immunotherapy as a treatment for RCC patients, randomized controlled trials, and ongoing studies including RCC patients and recent findings, and discusses future perspectives.

Androgen receptor signaling is crucial for the development of treatment resistance in prostate cancer. Among steroidogenic enzymes, 3β-hydroxysteroid dehydrogenases (3βHSDs) play critical roles in extragonadal androgen synthesis, especially 3βHSD1. Increased expression of 3βHSDs is observed in castration-resistant prostate cancer tumors compared with primary prostate tumors, indicating their involvement in castration resistance. Recent studies link 3βHSD1 to resistance to androgen receptor signaling inhibitors. The regulation of 3βHSD1 expression involves various factors, including transcription factors, microenvironmental influences, and posttranscriptional modifications. Additionally, the clinical significance of HSD3B1 genotypes, particularly the rs1047303 variant, has been extensively studied. The impact of HSD3B1 genotypes on treatment outcomes varies according to the therapy administered, suggesting the potential of HSD3B1 genotyping for personalized medicine. Targeting 3βHSDs may be a promising strategy for prostate cancer management. Overall, understanding the roles of 3βHSDs and their genetic variations may enable the development and optimization of novel treatments for prostate cancer.

Background: Early detection of biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy (RP) is crucial for early treatment and improving survival outcomes. The optimal prostate-specific antigen (PSA) monitoring remains unclear, and several models have been proposed. We aimed to externally validate four models for optimal PSA monitoring after RP and propose modifications to improve them. Methods: We reviewed the clinicopathological data of 896 patients who underwent robot-assisted RP between 2009 and 2022. We examined all PSA values and estimated the PSA value for four monitoring schedules at each time point in the virtual follow-up. We defined the ideal PSA for BCR detection between 0.2 and 0.4 ng/mL. Results: During the median follow-up of 21.4 months, 128 (14.3%) patients presented BCR. The original and modified Keio models, National Cancer Center Hospital model, and American Urological Association/American Society for Radiation Oncology model detected BCR in 14 (10.9%), three (2.3%), 12 (9.4%), and 11 (8.6%) patients with PSA >0.4 ng/mL. Most patients experienced BCR detected with PSA >0.4 ng/mL during the first year postoperative. The modification of interval within 6 months postoperative avoided BCR detection with PSA >0.4 ng/mL within the first year postoperative in 8/9 (88.9%), 1/2 (50.0%), 5/6 (83.3%), and 4/4 (100%) for the original and modified Keio models, National Cancer Center Hospital model, and American Urological Association/American Society for Radiation Oncology model, respectively. Conclusion: We validated four models for PSA monitoring after RP to detect BCR and suggested modifications to avoid detections out of the desired range of PSA. These modifications could help to establish an optimal PSA monitoring schedule after RP.

Abstract

Objective

Comprehensive genomic profiling testing using a hybrid-capture next-generation sequencing is commonly used in clinical practice to employ precision medicine in cancer treatment worldwide. In this study, we aimed to analyze the profiles obtained using comprehensive genomic profiling testing that was performed in Japanese castration-resistant prostate cancer patients and to discuss the genetic findings in a real-world setting.

Methods

A total of 60 cases and 57 castration-resistant prostate cancer patients underwent comprehensive genomic profiling testing between 1 January 2021 and 31 December 2022. Four types of comprehensive genomic profiling testing were selected, and clinically significant cancer-specific gene alterations were identified.

Results

The median age of patients was 74 years, and the median prostate-specific antigen value at the time of submission was 18.6 ng/ml. Fifty-seven (95%) of 60 cases were metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancers, and 3 cases (5%) were non-metastatic. Among all genetic alterations, androgen-receptor alteration was the most frequently detected in 17 cases (28.3%), followed by 15 cases of TP53 (25.0%), 14 cases of CDK12 (23.3%), 10 cases of phosphatase and tensin homolog (16.7%) and 9 cases of ATM (15.0%) mutations. A total of 13 patients (21.7%) received systemic therapy according to the comprehensive genomic profiling testing results. Overall, the survival rate was significantly greater in the group treated through systemic therapy based on comprehensive genomic profiling testing compared with the group without new therapeutic treatment (P = 0.041).

Conclusions

Comprehensive genomic profiling testing is recommended in castration-resistant prostate cancer patients identified as resistant to standard therapy as this can provide a new therapeutic option.

Introduction: Recently, many agents and combinations for metastatic and advanced renal cell carcinoma have been approved. This study aims to highlight the comprehensive differences in adverse events (AEs) between cabozantinib (CAB) plus nivolumab (NIVO) and ipilimumab (IPI) plus NIVO based on a real-world big dataset. Material and Methods: We downloaded AE datasets of IPI + NIVO and CAB + NIVO from the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database. We used the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities to treat each AE as a preferred term and grouped it into the System Organ Class (SOC). We performed logistic regression analyses to compare IPI + NIVO and CAB + NIVO. Results: The incidence rates of 7 types of toxicities were higher for CAB + NIVO than for IPI + NIVO. On the other hand, the incidence rates of 3 types of toxicities were higher for IPI + NIVO than for CAB + NIVO. Serious AEs were higher in patients receiving IPI + NIVO. Conclusion: Our findings suggest that both combination therapies presented a disproportionate distribution of toxicities in several SOC. These findings may help clinicians select suitable therapy for the individual and improve the safety profile in patients with advanced renal cell carcinoma receiving NIVO + IPI and NIVO + CAB in a real-world setting.

<p>　腹腔鏡手術あるいはロボット支援手術では, 一般的に炭酸ガスを用いた気腹を行い手術が行われるが, 合併症として炭酸ガス塞栓に注意が必要である. 肺炭酸ガス塞栓をきたしても症候性となるものは稀である一方, 症候性となったものは高い致死率を示すとする報告もある. 術中に呼気終末二酸化炭素分圧 (EtCO₂) の急激な低下, 経皮的動脈血酸素飽和度 (SpO₂) の低下がみられた場合は肺炭酸ガス塞栓を疑う. その場合, 速やかに気腹の中断あるいは減圧を行い, 純酸素を投与し, 同時にガス流入部である血管損傷部を閉鎖することが重要である. 今回, 我々は肺ガス塞栓に続き脳内にガス塞栓をきたした脳ガス塞栓の症例を経験した. 腎の腹腔鏡あるいはロボット支援手術において脳ガス塞栓をきたした症例の報告は我々の知る限りこれまで6例のみであり, うち2例は死亡に至っている. 脳ガス塞栓に対して高圧酸素療法が有効との報告もあるが, 発症すると重篤であるため, まずガス塞栓を発生させないことが重要である. そのため, 気腹圧を上げすぎないこと, 症例によっては腎静脈クランプを併用すること, 脈管はできるだけクリップ等により処理し開放した場合は速やかに縫合を行うことなどが重要と考えられた.</p>

The novel technique of lateral pelvic fascia preservation (LPFP) in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) has been reported to improve urinary continence recovery. We aimed to investigate surgical and oncological outcomes after RARP using the LPFP technique and compare them with conventional RARP. This study included patients who underwent RARP with and without the LPFP technique. Time to urinary continence recovery was compared between the LPFP and non-LPFP groups using univariate, multivariate, and propensity-score matched analysis. Perioperative and postoperative outcomes were compared between the two groups using univariate analysis. We included 139 patients who underwent RARP, 68 in the LPFP group and 71 in the non-LPFP group. The LPFP technique was associated with a shorter time to urinary continence recovery, a shorter operative time and lower estimated blood loss. Surgical and oncological outcomes, including complications, pathological T-stage, surgical margin status, and biochemical recurrence-free survival, were comparable between the two groups. This study demonstrated that the LPFP technique improves urinary continence recovery and operative times without compromising surgical and oncological outcomes. The use of this technique in patients with clinically localized prostate cancer is recommended.

Introduction: Radium-223 (Ra-223) dichloride therapy increases overall survival and delays time to the first symptomatic skeletal event (SSE) in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) and bone metastases. Bone-modifying agents (BMA) reduce SSE in patients with bone metastasis, but there is little information on their use with Ra-223. This study aimed to investigate the effect of BMA on SSE in patients with bone metastatic CRPC treated with Ra-223 in real-world practice. Methods: We included 73 patients treated with Ra-223 from 10 institutions in Japan. Time to the first SSE was estimated using the Kaplan–Meier method and compared between groups using the log-rank test. We used univariate analysis to ascertain the association between variables and SSE. Results: During a median follow-up of 12.7 months (interquartile range, 7–21.7), 12 (16.4%) patients presented SSE. Age and BMA use were different between men with and without SSE. The 1-year SSE-free survival rate from Ra-223 treatment initiation was 82.4% (95% CI, 69.4%–90.2%). BMA use was associated with favorable SSE-free survival (hazard risk, 0.23; 95% confidence interval, 0.061–0.85; p = 0.027). Two (4.7%) and seven (23.3%) patients presented symptomatic pathological bone fracture in groups with and without BMA use, respectively (p = 0.017). Conclusion: This study stresses the importance of BMA use in patients with CRPC and bone metastases in Ra-223 treatment.

Background/Aim: Testosterone is essential for prostate cancer development and growth. This study aimed to investigate the relationship between testosterone in seminal vesicles and prostate cancer incidence and its malignant phenotype. Patients and Methods: After obtaining institutional review board approval, seminal vesicle fluid samples were collected from patients who underwent prostatectomy or cystectomy. Pathological review demonstrated that 26 patients had benign prostate tissue and 149 had prostate cancer. First, testosterone levels in seminal vesicle fluid from benign prostate and prostate cancer samples were compared. Next, the relationship between pathological stage, International Society of Urological Pathology (ISUP) score, and testosterone concentrations in seminal vesicle fluid in the prostate cancer group were examined. Results: Testosterone in seminal vesicles was significantly higher in the prostate cancer group [median (range), 1.94 (0.17-4.32) ng/ml] than in the benign prostate group (mainly bladder cancer) [1.45 (0.60-2.78) ng/ml] (p=0.001). Testosterone in seminal vesicles showed no difference in relation to pathological stage (pT2 vs. pT3) or ISUP score (12 vs. 345) (p=0.480 and p=0.964, respectively). Neoadjuvant chemotherapy for other cancers (e.g., bladder or rectal cancer) significantly reduced testosterone in seminal vesicles (p=0.013). Multivariate regression analysis revealed that testosterone in seminal vesicles was significantly correlated with prostate cancer, and not with neoadjuvant chemotherapy (p=0.023, p=0.457, respectively). Conclusion: Testosterone in seminal vesicles may contribute to prostate cancer incidence, but has no relationship with pathological grading.

This study investigated cellular mechanisms in steroidogenesis responsible for treatment resistance to the novel antiandrogen agent darolutamide in prostate cancer. HSD3B1 was overexpressed in darolutamide-resistant cells and induced by darolutamide treatment and AR knockdown. Inversely, HSD3B1 knockdown increased cellular sensitivity to darolutamide. Similarly, its upstream regulator NR5A2 was up-regulated in darolutamide-resistant cells and induced by darolutamide treatment and AR knockdown. Inversely, NR5A2 knockdown and NR5A2 inhibitor ML180 decreased expression of various steroidogenic enzymes including HSD3B1, leading to increased cellular sensitivity to darolutamide. The NR5A2/HSD3B1 pathway promoted cellular resistance to darolutamide and targeting NR5A2/HSD3B1 pathway is a promising therapeutic strategy to overcome darolutamide resistance.

Introduction:This study aimed to highlight the comprehensive differences in adverse events between abiraterone and enzalutamide based on a big data data set.Methods:We downloaded adverse event data sets of abiraterone and enzalutamide from the Food and Drug Administration Adverse Event Reporting System database. We used the Medical Dictionary for Regulatory Activities to treat each adverse event as a preferred term and grouped it into the System Organ Class. Logistic regression analyses were performed to compare abiraterone and enzalutamide.Results:In total, we extracted 59,680 data sets. After exclusion by criteria, we included 26,015 reports on enzalutamide and 7,507 on abiraterone. Enzalutamide and abiraterone presented different toxicity profiles in most System Organ Classes. Overall, the reporting odds ratio indicated a higher incidence rate of serious adverse events for abiraterone than enzalutamide.Conclusions:In conclusion, our findings suggest that both drugs present a discrete and nonoverlapping toxicity profile that varies by System Organ Class and patient age. This data set confirms, for the most part, what has been reported in clinical trials as well as true real-world reports.

Objective: The precise diagnosis of prostate cancer (PC) is crucial to avoid underdiagnosis, overdiagnosis, and overtreatment. We aimed to compare clinically significant PC (csPC) detection between MRI/ultrasound fusion-targeted prostate (TBx) compared to systematic biopsy (SBx) in biopsy-naïve Japanese men. Methods: We included patients with suspect PC due to elevated PSA level or abnormal digital rectal examination, or both. csPC was defined as International Society Urological Pathology (ISUP) grade group ≥2 (csPC-A) and ISUP grade group ≥3 (csPC-B). Results: This study included 143 patients. Overall PC detection was 66.4% for SBx and 67.8% for MRI-TBx. MRI-TBx presented a significantly higher rate of csPC detection (csPC-A 67.1% vs. 58.7%, p = 0.04, and csPC-B 49.6% vs. 39.9%, p < 0.001) and significantly lower detection of non-csPC-A (0.6% vs. 6.7%). Importantly, MRI-TBx missed 4.9% (7/143) of csPC-A and only 0.7% (1/143) of csPC-B. On the other hand, SBx alone missed 13.3% (19/143) of csPC-A and 4.2% (6/143) of csPC-B. Conclusion: MRI-TBx significantly outperformed 12-cores SBx for csPC detection and decreased non-csPC detection in biopsy-naive men. Performing MRI-TBx without SBx would have missed some csPC, supporting that MRI-TBx synergizes with SBx to increase csPC detection.

ロボット支援根治的前立腺摘出術(RARP)後早期において拡大骨盤リンパ節郭清(ePLND)が尿失禁(UI)に及ぼす影響について検討した。海綿体神経温存を行わずにRARPを行った349例をePLND施行群186例(中央値66.5歳)とePLND非施行群163例(中央値68歳)に分類した。術後早期における排尿調節率のほか、国際前立腺症状スコア(IPSS)、リンパ節周囲脂肪組織(PLA)中のシナプトフィジンとチロシンヒドロラーゼ(TH)発現を評価した。ePLND施行群、非施行群とも術前にUIの発症はなく、術後1ヵ月における排尿調節率はePLND群が24.1%、非ePLND群が35.1%であり、ePLND群の方が有意に低かった。3、6、12ヵ月後の排尿調節率に有意な群間差はみられなかった。IPSS総スコアは1ヵ月後においてePLND群の方が有意に高く、3、6、12ヵ月後に有意差はなく、IPSS蓄尿スコアはいずれの時点でも有意な群間差はなく、IPSS排尿・排尿後症状スコアは1ヵ月後においてePLND群の方が有意に高値を示していた。多変量ロジスティック回帰分析では、前立腺容積とePLNDの施行がUI発症の独立予測因子として抽出された。ePLND群ではPLAにおいてシナプトフィジンとTH陽性神経線維が検出され、ePLNDの施行による脱神経がUI発症と関連することが示唆された。

A 67-year-old man with metastatic prostate cancer was treated with leuprorelin and enzalutamide, but presented radiographic progression after 1 year. Although docetaxel chemotherapy was initiated, liver metastasis appeared with elevation of nerve-specific enolase in serum. Pathological findings of needle biopsy of lymph node metastasis in the right inguinal region showed neuroendocrine carcinoma. FoundationOne CDx® using a biopsy sample of the prostate at initial diagnosis detected the BRCA1 mutation (deletion of intron 3-7), but BRACAnalysis® test revealed no BRCA mutation in germline. Then, olaparib treatment was initiated, resulting in remarkable remission of tumors, but comorbidity with interstitial pneumonia. This case suggested that olaparib could be effective for neuroendocrine prostate cancer with BRCA1 gene mutation, but may cause interstitial pneumonia.

Objectives: To investigate the impact of extended pelvic lymph node dissection (ePLND) on urinary incontinence (UI) at early post-surgery robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP). Methods: Patients who underwent RARP without cavernous nerve sparing were included between 2014 and 2019. Patient data were obtained prospectively. The associations between ePLND and postoperative urinary continence were defined as a maximum of one daily pad use. International prostate symptom score (IPSS) was examined. Expression of synaptophysin and tyrosine hydroxylase (TH) in perilymph node adipose tissue (PLA) was evaluated by immunohistochemistry. Results: In total, 186 and 163 patients underwent RARP with and without ePLND. Urinary continence rate at 1 month postoperatively among patients with ePLND was lower than those without ePLND (24.1% vs. 35.1%, p < 0.05), however, not significantly different at 3, 6, and 12 months after RARP (57.4 vs. 62.6%, 73.1 vs. 74.2%, and 83.0 vs. 81.2%, respectively). Total and voiding plus postvoiding IPSS scores at 1 month were higher in patients with ePLND than in those without ePLND (14.5 ± 0.5 vs. 13.6 ± 0.6, 7.0 ± 0.3 vs. 6.2 ± 0.4, respectively, p < 0.05). In univariate and multivariate analyses, larger prostate volume and ePLND were factors associated with an increased UI rate. Among patients who underwent ePLND, synaptophysin and TH-positive nerve fibers were detected in PLA. Conclusions: Detection of synaptophysin and TH-immunopositive nerves suggested denervation of sympathetic and peripheral nerves caused by ePLND might be associated with a higher UI rate and poor urinary symptoms at an early stage after RARP.

Objective: Radium-223 (Ra-223) dichloride is the bone-targeted radioligand therapy that prolongs overall survival (OS) in patients with bone-metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC). We aimed to evaluate the safety and effectiveness of this treatment in real-world practice. Methods: We included Japanese men treated with Ra-223 for bone-metastatic CRPC from 10 institutions, retrospectively. Primary endpoint was OS. Secondary endpoint was maximum decline of alkaline phosphatase (ALP), lactate dehydrogenase, and prostate-specific antigen values, the rate of adverse events, and time to pathological fracture after Ra-223 treatment. Exploratory endpoint was the associations between clinical parameters and OS. Results: In total, 73 men with bone metastatic CRPC treated with Ra-223 were enrolled. The median OS was 20.9 months. ALP levels decreased significantly from pre-treatment (p = 0.03). Anemia occurred in three (4.1%) patients. Grade ≥ 3 non-pathological fractures occurred in four (5.5%) men. Nine (12.3%) patients presented pathological fracture; 7/30 (23.3%) were in men without concomitant use of a bone-modifying agent (BMA) while 2/43 (4.7%) were in patients with concomitant BMA (p = 0.03). The median OS in patients with ≥3 cycles treatment (27.2 months, p < 0.001) or hemoglobin ≥12 g/dl (27.2 months, p = 0.001) or absence of bone pain (36.3 months, p = 0.004) was significantly longer compared to those who with ≤2 cycles or hemoglobin<12 g/dl or presence of bone paint, respectively. Conclusions: This study has shown the outcomes of Ra-223 treatment in real-world practice, where the number of treatment cycles, baseline anemia and bone pain may be useful to predict OS in Ra-223 treatment.

Purpose: Conditional survival represents the probability of subsequent survival given that patients have already survived a certain length of time. Several models predict biochemical recurrence (BCR) after radical prostatectomy. However, none of them include postoperative prostate-specific antigen (PSA). We aimed to analyze BCR-free survival evolution over time and develop a nomogram incorporating the postoperative PSA value to predict BCR-free survival. Material and Methods: We included patients treated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy (RARP) for prostate cancer between 2009 and 2021 and calculated conditional survival. Cox proportional hazard regression analysis was used to assess the predictive variables of BCR. We developed a nomogram predicting BCR-free survival three and five years after RARP. We used c-index and decision curve analyses to compare the nomogram with the Cancer of the Prostate Risk Assessment post-Surgical (CAPRA-S) score. Results: We included 718 patients. The overall 3- and 5-year BCR-free survival rates were 85.1% and 75.7%, respectively. The 5-year BCR-free survival rates increased to 78.9%, 82.9%, 85.2%, and 84.7% for patients surviving 1, 2, 3, and 4 years without BCR, respectively. We developed a nomogram including the pathological Gleason score and T stage, positive surgical margin, PSA ≥ 0.05 ng/mL at one year, and lymph node involvement to predict BCR at 3 and 5 years postoperatively. Our nomogram presented a higher c-index (0.89) than the CAPRA-S score (0.78; p = 0.001) and a positive net benefit at 3 and 5 years postoperatively in the decision curve analyses. Conclusion: The 5-year conditional BCR-free survival increased with survival without BCR. The developed nomogram significantly improved the accuracy in predicting BCR-free survival after RARP.

Hormonal therapies including androgen deprivation therapy and androgen receptor (AR) pathway inhibitors such as abiraterone and enzalutamide have been widely used to treat advanced prostate cancer. However, treatment resistance emerges after hormonal manipulation in most prostate cancers, and it is attributable to a number of mechanisms, including AR amplification and overexpression, AR mutations, the expression of constitutively active AR variants, intra-tumor androgen synthesis, and promiscuous AR activation by other factors. Although various AR mutations have been reported in prostate cancer, specific AR mutations (L702H, W742L/C, H875Y, F877L, and T878A/S) were frequently identified after treatment resistance emerged. Intriguingly, these hot spot mutations were also revealed to change the binding affinity of ligands including steroids and antiandrogens and potentially result in altered responses to AR pathway inhibitors. Currently, precision medicine utilizing genetic and genomic data to choose suitable treatment for the patient is becoming to play an increasingly important role in clinical practice for prostate cancer management. Since clinical data between AR mutations and the efficacy of AR pathway inhibitors are accumulating, monitoring the AR mutation status is a promising approach for providing precision medicine in prostate cancer, which would be implemented through the development of clinically available testing modalities for AR mutations using liquid biopsy. However, there are few reviews on clinical significance of AR hot spot mutations in prostate cancer. Then, this review summarized the clinical landscape of AR mutations and discussed their potential implication for clinical utilization.

本邦でも2019年にがんゲノムプロファイル検査が保険承認され,がんゲノム医療が臨床実装されるに至った。九州大学病院もがんゲノム医療中核拠点病院としてがんゲノム医療において中心的な役割を担っている。そこで,がんゲノムプロファイル検査およびその結果に基づく受療機会の提供についての我々の経験について報告する。対象は2019年6月から2021年10月までに九州大学病院泌尿器・前立腺・腎臓・副腎外科においてがんゲノムプロファイル検査を施行した症例を対象とし,患者背景,臨床情報,がんゲノムプロファイル検査結果を電子カルテから収集した。その結果,腎癌4症例,尿路上皮癌9症例,前立腺癌9症例でがんゲノムプロファイル検査が施行されていた。がんゲノムプロファイル検査の結果,5症例で遺伝子異常に基づく治療が推奨されたが,受療機会の創出に結びついたのは2症例のみであった。本邦におけるがんゲノム医療は徐々に普及しているが,受療機会の提供につながる症例は少なく,がんゲノム医療の課題と考えられる。保険診療での治療に加え,治験や臨床試験での受療機会の拡大を通じて,治療につながるような継続的な取り組みが求められている。(著者抄録)

ロボット支援根治的前立腺全摘除術(RARP)での神経温存により切除断端陽性率や生化学的再発リスクが高まるかを検討した。2009～2021年に限局性前立腺癌の一次治療としてRARPを受けた患者を対象とした。ロジスティック回帰分析とCox比例ハザードモデルを用いた。患者814例(年齢中央値66歳)を解析した。片側神経温存は152例(18.6%)、両側神経温存は118例(14.5%)で行われた。術前因子を調整した多変量解析では、非神経温存と比較して、神経温存および両側神経温存が切除断端陽性のリスク増加と関連していた。切除断端陽性(部位を問わない)は生化学的再発リスク増加の独立危険因子であった。片側神経温存では、神経温存側の手術断端陽性が生化学的再発のリスク増加と関連したが、非神経温存側では関連がなかった。以上から、RARPでの神経温存では手術断端陽性に関連する生化学的再発リスクがあり、外科医は神経温存に適した患者を選択する必要があると考えられた。

Objectives: Nerve sparing may increase positive surgical margin rate during radical prostatectomy. Our objective was to analyze the positive surgical margin rate and location as well as its impact on biochemical recurrence according to nerve sparing procedure in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy. Methods: We included 814 patients treated with robot-assisted radical prostatectomy between 2009 and 2021, and evaluated the impact of nerve sparing on positive surgical margin and biochemical recurrence using logistic regression and Cox models. Results: Unilateral nerve sparing and bilateral nerve sparing were performed in 152 (18.6%) cases and 118 (14.5%) cases, respectively. On multivariable analysis, in addition to nerve sparing, bilateral nerve sparing, but not unilateral nerve sparing was associated with an increased risk of positive surgical margin compared with non-nerve sparing. Positive surgical margin at any location increased the risk of biochemical recurrence. During unilateral nerve sparing, positive surgical margin in nerve sparing side, but not in non-nerve sparing side was associated with increased risk of biochemical recurrence on multivariate analysis. Conclusions: Taken together, surgeons need to notice an increased risk of biochemical recurrence associated with positive surgical margin when performing nerve sparing in robot-assisted radical prostatectomy, and then need to choose the patients suitable for nerve sparing.

Chemotherapy is a standard therapy for muscle-invasive bladder cancer (MIBC). However, genomic alterations associated with chemotherapy sensitivity in MIBC have not been fully explored. This study aimed to investigate the genomic landscape of MIBC in association with the response to chemotherapy and to explore the biological role of genomic alterations. Genomic alterations in MIBC were sequenced by targeted exome sequencing of 409 genes. Gene expression in MIBC tissues was analyzed by western blotting, immunohistochemistry, and RNA microarray. Cellular sensitivity to gemcitabine and gemcitabine metabolite was examined in bladder cancer cells after modulation of candidate gene. Targeted exome sequencing in 20 cases with MIBC revealed various genomic alterations including pathogenic missense mutation of DPYD gene encoding dihydropyrimidine dehydrogenase (DPD). Conversely, high DPYD and DPD expression were associated with poor response to gemcitabine-containing chemotherapy among patients with MIBC, as well as gemcitabine resistance in bladder cancer cells. DPD suppression rendered cells sensitive to gemcitabine, while DPD overexpression made cells gemcitabine-resistant through reduced activity of the cytotoxic gemcitabine metabolite difluorodeoxycytidine diphosphate. This study revealed the novel role of DPD in gemcitabine metabolism. It has been suggested that DPYD genomic alterations and DPD expression are potential predictive biomarkers in gemcitabine treatment.

リボソームS6キナーゼを標的とするファーストインクラス低分子阻害剤であるPMD-026のYボックス結合タンパク質1(YB-1)/アンドロゲン受容体(AR)シグナルに対する作用と前立腺癌に対する抗腫瘍効果について検討した。in vitro試験において、PMD-026は、高レベルのAR変異体を発現する去勢抵抗性前立腺癌由来の22Rv1細胞におけるYB-1リン酸化、AR V7 mRNAおよびAR変異体の発現を低下させた。前立腺癌由来のAR陰性PC-3細胞やDU145細胞および完全長ARのみを発現するLNCaP細胞に対するPMD-026の細胞毒性は、22Rv1細胞に対する細胞毒性と比較して顕著ではなかった。PMD-026は、単独および第2世代抗アンドロゲン薬であるエンザルタミドやダロルタミドとの併用により、細胞のアポトーシスとG2/M停止を誘導することで細胞増殖を抑制した。22Rv1細胞を免疫不全マウスへ移植したマウス異種移植モデルにおいて、PMD-026とエンザルタミドの併用は、PMD-026単独投与よりも顕著に腫瘍増殖を抑制した。以上より、去勢抵抗性前立腺癌に対する新規リボソームS6キナーゼ阻害剤PMD-026の優れた抗腫瘍効果および抗アンドロゲン薬エンザルタミドとの併用効果が示された。

Ribosomal S6 kinase has been shown to play a key role in cellular resistance to endocrine therapy in prostate cancer through its regulation of YB-1/androgen receptor (AR) signaling. PMD-026, an oral first-in-class small molecule kinase inhibitor, is the first identified ribosomal S6 kinase inhibitor. This study investigated the effect of PMD-026 on YB-1/AR signaling and its antitumor effect in prostate cancer in vitro and in vivo. Castration-resistant prostate cancer 22Rv1 cells that express high-level AR variants were used in this study. The effect of PMD-026 on YB-1/AR signaling was investigated by quantitative real-time PCR and western blot analysis. The effects of PMD-026 on prostate cancer cells were investigated by cytotoxicity analysis, apoptosis assay, and cell cycle assay in vitro and a mouse castration model in vivo. PMD-026 decreased YB-1 phosphorylation as well as AR V7 mRNA and AR variant expressions in 22Rv1 cells. PMD-026 suppressed cell proliferation alone and in combination with the second-generation antiandrogens enzalutamide and darolutamide by inducing cellular apoptosis and G2/M arrest. In a mouse xenograft model, PMD-026 suppressed tumor growth, and the combination of PMD-026 and enzalutamide inhibited tumor growth more prominently than single treatments. Our results demonstrate an excellent antitumor effect of the novel ribosomal S6 kinase inhibitor PMD-026 and the combination effect with the antiandrogen enzalutamide in castration-resistant prostate cancer. These findings warrant a clinical trial of PMD-026 in prostate cancer patients.

This study aimed to investigate the significance of HSD3B1 gene status including germline polymorphism and somatic alterations in prostate cancer. Patients with prostate cancer treated with androgen-deprivation therapy, as well as tissues from metastatic prostate cancer, were included. Genomic DNA was extracted from cancer tissues and whole blood samples, and HSD3B1 (rs1047303, 1245C) was genotyped by Sanger sequencing. The association of HSD3B1 genotype with progression-free survival according to metastatic volume was examined. Copy number alteration and gene expression of HSD3B1 were examined in prostate cancer cells and public datasets. Among 194 patients, 121 and 73 patients were categorized into low- and high-volume diseases respectively. In multivariate analysis, the adrenal-permissive genotype (AC/CC) was significantly associated with increased risk of progression compared with the adrenal-restrictive genotype (AA) in low volume, but not high-volume diseases. Somatic mutation in HSD3B1 was detected at least in two cases of castration-resistant prostate cancer tissues. HSD3B1 amplification and overexpression were detected in castration-resistant prostate cancer cells and tissues. The current findings suggest that both germline and somatic alterations of HSD3B1 may cooperatively promote castration resistance in prostate cancer and HSD3B1 as a promising biomarker for precision medicine, warranting further investigations.

<p><b>Introduction:</b> Studies on the effect of androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPI), docetaxel (DTX), and radium-223 (Ra-223) after first-line treatment with ARPI in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) are scarce. This study compared the efficacy of treatment after ARPI for CRPC.</p><p><b>Methods:</b> Patients with CRPC who received ARPI as first-line treatment and different second-line treatments were retrospectively reviewed. Clinicopathological backgrounds and treatment outcomes, including maximum prostate-specific antigen (PSA) decrease, progression-free survival (PFS), and overall survival (OS), were compared between second-line treatments.</p><p><b>Results:</b> In total, 88 patients were enrolled. Forty-one (46.6%), 37 (42.0%), and 10 (11.4%) patients were treated with ARPI, DTX, and Ra-223, respectively. Patients whose PSA levels were not adequately reduced by first-line treatment with ARPI were eventually enrolled in the DTX treatment (P = 0.030). PSA decrease was not significantly different when comparing treatments. PFS in the DTX group was significantly better than in the other two groups (P = 0.023). In multivariate analysis, DTX was an independent prognostic factor for better PFS compared to ARPI (hazard ratio, 95% confidence interval; 0.44, 0.25-0.79, P = 0.006). Subgroup analysis showed a favorable impact of DTX on PFS in patients with Gleason score >8 (interaction P = 0.027) and a PSA decline >50% (interaction P = 0.019) during first-line treatment with ARPI. However, no significant difference in OS was observed between groups of different second-line treatments.</p><p><b>Conclusions:</b> This study suggests that in patients with CRPC, second-line treatment with DTX following progression in patients who received ARPI as first-line treatment is more beneficial compared with second-line treatment with ARPI or Ra-233.</p>

There are multiple reports on the value of complete blood count (CBC)-related parameters on prognosis in docetaxel-treated castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) patients before the emergence of androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs). We investigated the prognostic significance of CBC-related parameters in docetaxel-treated CRPC patients. Patients treated with docetaxel chemotherapy for CRPC between 2008 and 2018 were included. We analyzed the relevance of CBC-related parameters to oncological prognosis in docetaxel chemotherapy, associated with prior use of novel ARPIs. Among 144 Japanese men treated with docetaxel, 49 men (34.0%) had already received ARPI therapy. A high neutrophil-lymphocyte ratio (NLR) was a prognostic factor for poor progression-free survival and overall survival (OS) in both univariate and multivariate analyses. In addition, a low hemoglobin (Hb) level and a high systemic immune-inflammation index (SII) were prognostic factors of poor OS in univariate analysis. Hb level was a prognostic factor of OS in both ARPI-naive and ARPI-treated patients. However, a high NLR and SII were only associated with a poor prognosis in ARPI-naive but not in ARPI-treated patients. Hb, NLR, and SII have been suggested to be prognosticators in docetaxel-treated CRPC patients. The differential prognostic value of NLR and SII between ARPI-naive and ARPI-treated patients may require caution when using these markers in docetaxel-treated CRPC patients.

転移性去勢抵抗性前立腺癌(CRPC)の第一選択治療としてアンドロゲン受容体経路阻害剤(ARPI)やドセタキセルの臨床転帰に関する予測マーカーを検討した。2008年から2018年までにARPIまたはドセタキセルによる治療を受けた転移性CRPCの日本人患者254例(年齢中央値73歳)を対象とした。転移性CRPC患者254例のうち、119例と135例がそれぞれARPIとドセタキセルを受けた。多変量解析の結果、ARPIは、ドセタキセルと比較して、無増悪生存期間(PFS)(ハザード比0.62、95%CI 0.42～0.92、p=0.016)および全生存期間(OS)(ハザード比0.61、95%CI 0.41～0.93、p=0.021のより良い独立した予後因子であった。治療前の前立腺特異抗原レベルとCRPCになるまでの期間は、ARPIとドセタキセルでは、PFSやOSと異なる相関が認められた。CRPCを6ヵ月未満で発症した患者のうち、ARPIを受けた患者のPFS(中央値1.1ヵ月、95%CI 0.2～2.8ヵ月)は、ドセタキセルを受けた患者のPFS(中央値5.0ヵ月、95%CI 1.8～6.7ヵ月、p=0.014)よりも短かった。以上より、ARPIによる一次治療は、予後因子を調整した後でも、ドセタキセルと比較してより良い予後と関連していた。

去勢抵抗性前立腺癌患者88例を対象とした後ろ向き研究を実施し、androgen receptor pathway inhibitors(ARPI)による初回治療後の2次治療効果を比較した。2次治療によりARPI群41例(年齢中央値76歳)、ドセタキセル(DTX)群37例(年齢中央値74歳)、Ra-223群10例(年齢中央値73歳)に分けて検討した。評価項目は臨床病理学的特徴、前立腺特異抗原(PSA)の最大低下率、無増悪生存期間(PFS)、全生存期間(OS)などとした。その結果、治療群間でPSA減少に有意差は認められなかった。また、DTX群では他2群と比較してPFSが良好であることが示された。また、多変量解析の結果、ARPIと比較してDTXはPFS改善の独立した予後因子であった(ハザード比0.44、P=0.006)。サブグループ解析の結果、ARPIによる初回治療時、グリソンスコア>8であった患者、PSA低下率>50%の患者において、DTXがPFSへ好影響をもたらすことが示された(交互作用P=0.027、P=0.019)。しかし、二次治療間でOSに有意差は認められなかった。以上のように、ARPIによる初回治療後の二次治療として、DTXはARPIまたはRa-233と比較してより有益であることが示唆された。

Several studies have identified various targetable genomic alterations in prostate cancer, which accumulate during carcinogenesis and cancer progression. Genomic alterations in genes involved in DNA damage repair by homologous recombination repair may predict increased sensitivity to poly-ADP ribose polymerase (PARP) inhibitors. The Phase 3 PROfound trial has shown that treatment with the PARP inhibitor olaparib was associated with an improved radiographic progression-free survival and overall survival among patients with homologous recombination repair-deficient metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer (mCRPC) after the treatment with androgen receptor targeting therapy, especially in men with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. In Japan, olaparib was approved in December 2020 for the treatment of mCRPC with BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation. In addition, genetic tests to detect BRCA1 or BRCA2 mutation to select patients who are likely to benefit from olaparib were also approved. This review summarizes the status of olaparib treatment for mCRPC, focusing on the situation in Japan.

Tumor heterogeneity can be traced back to a small subset of cancer stem cells (CSCs), which can be derived from a single stem cell and show chemoresistance. Recent studies showed that CSCs are sensitive to mitochondrial targeting antibiotics such as doxycycline. However, little is known about how cancer cells undergo sphere formation and how antibiotics inhibit CSC proliferation. Here we show that under sphere-forming assay conditions, prostate cancer cells acquired CSC-like properties: promoted mitochondrial respiratory chain activity, expression of characteristic CSC markers and resistance to anticancer agents. Furthermore, those CSC-like properties could reversibly change depending on the culture conditions, suggesting some kinds of CSCs have plasticity in tumor microenvironments. The sphere-forming cells (i.e. cancer stem-like cells) showed increased contact between mitochondria and mitochondrial associated-endoplasmic reticulum (ER) membranes (MAM). Mitochondrial targeting doxycycline induced activating transcription factor 4 (ATF4) mediated expression of ER stress response and led to p53-upregulated modulator of apoptosis (PUMA)-dependent apoptosis only in the cancer stem-like cells. We also found that doxycycline effectively suppressed the sphere formation in vitro and blocked CD44v9-expressing tumor growth in vivo. In summary, these data provide new molecular findings that monolayer cancer cells acquire CSC-like properties in a reversible manner. These findings provide important insights into CSC biology and a potential new treatment of targeting mitochondria dependency.
