    Key Recommendations Key Recommendation 1: Gao Xu, Sun Yinghao, Shanghai Changhai Hospital: Genetic changes and epigenetic profile of prostate cancer in Asian population.
    Sun Yinghao, Shanghai Changhai Hospital, published a study in European Journal of Cancer: Preclinical profile and phase I clinical trial of a novel androgen receptor antagonist GT0918 in castration-resistant prostate cancer.
    Key Recommendation 1: Shanghai Changhai Hospital Gao Xu and Sun Yinghao: Asian Human prostate cancer genetic changes and epigenetic map.
    Sun Yinghao, Shanghai Changhai Hospital, published a study in European Journal of Cancer: Preclinical profile and phase I clinical trial of a novel androgen receptor antagonist GT0918 in castration-resistant prostate cancer.
    Key recommendation1: Shanghai Changhai Hospital Gao Xu and Sun Yinghao: Asian Human prostate cancer genetic changes and epigenetic map. The team of Professor Gao Xu and Sun Yinghao from Changhai Hospital drew and analyzed the whole genome, whole transcriptome and DNA methylation data of 208 pairs of tumor tissue samples, and matched the healthy control tissues of Chinese patients with primary prostate cancer.
    The genetic and epigenetic profile of prostate cancer in the ethnic population.

    The study found that the characteristics of genomic changes in Chinese patients are significantly different from those in western patients.
    In particular, it should be pointed out that FOXA1 is highly expressed in the Chinese population (41%), and 18% of tumors ZNF292 and CHD1 are missing.

    This research provides a certain reference basis for future drug development and tumor heterogeneity.

    Key recommendation 2: 4 articles related to the pathogenesis of prostate cancer published by Chinese scholars in 2020.
    The 4 blockbuster studies on the pathogenesis and origin of prostate cancer have all been highly recognized internationally, with a score of 20-30 in journals.

    Key recommendation 3: Research on the drug resistance mechanism of potent androgen receptor blockers.
    In the research published by clinicians, the focus is mainly on the treatment of new drugs, the drug resistance mechanism and the corresponding targeted therapies for related mechanisms, all of which have been obtained domestically Highly recognized by peers.

    These studies provide a new perspective on the mechanism of AR blocker resistance.

    Key recommendation 4: Clinical research The West China Hospital team, led by Professor Wei Qiang and Professor Zeng Hao, has been engaged in a series of studies on prostate intraductal carcinoma for a long time.

    A series of articles have been published.
    Last year’s research results were published in JEU.
    This year, the researchers further revealed through a prospective cohort study that for patients undergoing radical prostatectomy, the pathology of preoperative prostate puncture has intraductal cancer and the final surgical pathology Gleason score.
    8-10.
    Seminal vesicle involvement, pathological stage T3a and other high-risk and highly aggressive characteristics of prostate cancer are related, which can be used to predict the time for high-risk patients without biochemical recurrence after surgery.

    Robot-assisted radical prostatectomy has been widely carried out in recent years, but reports of long-term postoperative urinary incontinence are still rare.

    Professor Zhang Xu from the General Hospital of the People’s Liberation Army and Professor Liao Limin from the China Rehabilitation Center announced the urinary incontinence of patients 4 years after the robot-assisted radical prostatectomy.

    This study is the largest urinary control data on radical treatment of prostate cancer in China so far.
    More than 600 patients were included and the follow-up time was close to 4 years.

    The results showed that the one-month urinary control rate was 40%, and the three-month urinary control rate reached 60%.
    Patients with early postoperative urinary incontinence can gradually recover within one year.

    Data show that pelvic lymph node dissection is a risk factor for early postoperative urinary incontinence, advanced age is a risk factor for long-term postoperative urinary incontinence, and intrafascial nerve preservation surgery is still the most important means to improve urinary control.

    Key recommendation 5: Clinical research In clinical research, there are two studies in Fudan University Affiliated Cancer Hospital that are worthy of attention: Professor Zhu Yao’s team has carried out the use of 68Ga-PSMA and 18F-FDG PET/CT dual imaging agents in prostate cancer to observe tumors Heterogeneity research.

    Professor Ye Dingwei and Professor Dai Bo announced on ESMO the “randomized controlled open-label phase 2 clinical study of newly diagnosed oligometastatic prostate cancer receiving local treatment of the primary tumor”.

    This study is the first prospective randomized controlled study to explore the clinical value of radical prostatectomy in patients with newly diagnosed oligometastatic prostate cancer.

    A total of 200 patients were enrolled in the study, and they were randomly assigned to the endocrine therapy group (ADT group) and the endocrine therapy combined with the radical treatment group (ADT+RLT group) at 1:1.

    The results showed that at a median follow-up of 28 months, 33 patients in the ADT group developed imaging disease progression, 19 patients in the ADT+RLT group developed imaging disease progression, and the median rPFS of the ADT group was 50 months.
    The median rPFS of the ADT+RLT group was not reached, and the treatment of the primary tumor of oligometastatic prostate cancer significantly reduced the risk of imaging disease progression in patients (HR=0.
    50, P=0.
    015).

    At present, relevant clinical research in the field of prostate cancer is being extensively carried out in China, including the relevant research of the new androgen receptor antagonist proclutamide, Hc-1119 and PARP inhibitors.
    It is believed that the basic and clinical research in the field of prostate will achieve better results in the future.
    As a result, a higher level is reached.
