DarolutamidE + Consolidation Radiotherapy in Advanced prostate cancer detected by PSMA

In the era of PET imaging, many sites of disease that are not visible on conventional imaging will be found on PSMA (prostate specific membrane antigen) PET. For men with castration-resistant prostate cancer with no evidence of metastases on conventional imaging but detectable disease on Prostate Specific Membrane Antigen (PSMA)-PET/CT scan, DECREASE will compare the treatment outcomes of men taking Darolutamide with or without treating the small metastasis seen on the PSMA PET scan with radiation therapy. Lead by A/Profs Shankar Siva and Arun Azad, DECREASE aims to determine that the combination (Darolutamide + RT) is better than Darolutamide alone at controlling PSA levels and further spread of prostate cancer.
