Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer – Dr Rajeentheran Suntheralingam – DEBATE- Urological Congress 2017
Debate on Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer: The Arguments against Radical Treatment
– Debate Session: Plenary 12 on Controversies in Urology, 26th November 2017, Malaysian Urological Conference 2017; Pullman Hotel, Kuching Sarawak
– Prof Koon Ho Rha (Robotic Surgeon, Yonsei University, South Korea) versus Dr Rajeentheran Suntheralingam (Consultant Urologist, KPJ Damansara Specialist Hospital, Malaysia)
– The Debate against radical treatment of Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer
Arguments posed:
Unclear definition of the Oligometastatic state
Basic science understanding of circulating tumor cells and the number of cells required for detection
Does early detection and treatment slow disease progression and improve survival?
Recent advances in nmCRPC and mHSPC
Recent studies in radical and metastatic-directed therapy in Oligometastatic Prostate Cancer
Questions posed:
- Does such treatment of oligometastatic disease really extend patient survival?
- Does it improve quality of life over time?
- Are there definable subsets of patients who seem to do better (or worse) in response to such treatment?
- Is there a specific form of imaging technique (e.g., gallium-68 PMSA-enhanced PET/CT scanning) that should be seen as the “gold standard” for identification of appropriate metastatic lesions in patients who are the best candidates for such treatment?
Uncertain issues in Oligometastatic disease:
(i) How do we define disease burden?
(ii) Which consolidative/site-directed treatment should we choose?
(iii) What level of disease burden should we treat?
(iv) Which systemic treatments should we choose?
(v) How do we sequence treatments?
(vi) What is the appropriate endpoint to select when treating patients in this context?
