Neal Shore, Chief Medical Officer of Urology and Surgical Oncology for Genesis Care, US and PROpel trial investigator, said: “Today’s recommendation by the ODAC is disappointing news for clinicians and prostate cancer patients alike. Preventing or delaying radiographic progression is an important clinical endpoint in assessing oncologic treatment and is very relevant to patients, their caregivers and their families. It is essential that physicians and patients have an opportunity to choose treatment with the goal of optimising cancer care outcomes.”
