@jimhumd @seanmmcbride Some additional thoughts: most patients’ data classified as outcome failure are low vol GG2 (MR- invisible) in the opposite hemigland (not dx on initial bx); & patients have option to resume AS. We are preparing 5-yr tx failure data to provide more counseling info for physicians

@seanmmcbride I counsel using this evidence. FT incontinence and ED better than RP. Some opt for FT for functional outcomes over cancer control. Of note, our 43% 2-yr focal therapy treatment failure is similar to @BehfarEhdaieMD 40% for in bore HIFU, which had more restrictive entry criteria pic.twitter.com/XBwn4roXjw

Come join us for hopefully an engaging and balanced AUA Course reviewing the role of focal therapy in prostate cancer & translating the outcomes of clinical trials in clinical practice. Agnostic of technology but esteemed faculty discussing experience with all FT devices. #AUA24

@ProtonStorey @DrSpratticus And, do these “reclassified” cancers detected with adv bx techniques impact oncologic outcomes. As you mentioned, rad onc prospective trials are reassuring. And, 10yr+ registry data in focal therapy also reporting >95% metastases free and >98% survival data @LondonProstate1

@ProtonStorey @DrSpratticus Fair points Mark. We should continue to push and improve outcomes in this emerging treatment modality. Thought provoking: we observed 25% misclassification on initial bx (high vol, MR/Bx) -how many patients referred to radiation onc are undertreated based on biopsy tx planning?

One of many sessions showing #AUA24 endorsing this non EBM treatment to the point they discuss focal as something to add to your armamentarium rather than get evidence to support its use, FDA approval, payer and guideline support, and most importantly, patient benefit. Come on AUA. One thing to remain silent (which was unfortunate), another to build out dozens of sessions/days on this. Awesome for women to gather, just wish it was for something to help patients (cystectomy, nephrectomy, RPLND, etc).

@DrSpratticus Can we improve- absolutely. 1. Better techniques in systematic and targeted biopsy 2. Reduce heterogeneity of MRI across hospitals 3. Compare treatment modalities / focus on increasing treatment area and energy 4. Incorporate/study tissue (urine? serum?) biomarkers 5. Trials

@DrSpratticus I am not sure what data you are conflating but if speaking about our multi-center Phase 2 study: 12% >=GG2 PCa recurrence in treated lesion and ~25% GG2 detected in the untreated region (eg opposite hemigland) on “2” year biopsy. No stress urinary incontinence. 10% ED IIEF <24.

@RTendulkarMD @m_e_nielsen In my experience, the correction is minor and helpful in cases in which PSA is 0.05 -> 0.1. Perhaps, lab error could have contributed to this case- a more common clinical situation.

Ever had a case of spurious postop PSA elevation that didn’t make sense? Hint: recheck the PSA with human anti-mouse antibody (HAMA) treatment. Here’s a case where a patient was spared from unnecessary salvage therapy.
