The 2021 ZERO Prostate Cancer Summit is Virtual

ZERO Prostate Cancer Summit

Every year, the prostate cancer community looks forward to the annual ZERO Prostate Cancer Summit to learn and make a difference for men and families.

Virtual ZERO Prostate Cancer Summit Logo

Due to COVID-19, we won't be gathering in person, but are instead taking the same Summit experience you know and love online! In this new, virtual setting, you'll be able to connect with others, chat with experts, attend sessions as your schedule allows (before, during or after the Summit), and more! And, best of all, registration is free!

If you want to know the newest disease developments, come together with peers, and feel empowered by knowledge, you won't want to miss the most impactful gathering in our community! Stay tuned as more sessions and speakers are announced, but head to the Summit website to meet already-announced speakers, such as sexual health expert Dr. Rachel Rubin, and keynote speaker, Dr. Mark Moyad, an expert on cancer nutrition and wellness.

PROVENGE: Effective at Extending Lives

Did you know that PROVENGE (Sipuleucel-T) is the only FDA-approved immunotherapy vaccine treatment for prostate cancer? PROVENGE is used in men with metastatic castrate-resistant, asymptomatic prostate cancer (mCRPC).

Provenge

As a personalized immunotherapy that activates the immune system to help fight advanced prostate cancer, PROVENGE has shown it can help men live longer. Immunotherapy uses the patient's own immune system to fight cancer.

A several-year-long study (called PROCEED), with thousands of patients, evaluated the real-world use of PROVENGE in men with asymptomatic or minimally symptomatic mCRPC, found that PROVENGE extends life in men with mCRPC and underscores its added effectiveness in African American men.

The data from PROCEED suggests that African American men exhibit survival differences compared with Caucasian men when treated with PROVENGE, especially at lower PSA values. No other prostate cancer treatment has shown this level of added benefit in African American men with mCRPC.

Learn more about the PROCEED study and PROVENGE and whether it's right for you.

Prostate Cancer Research Study

Prostate cancer research study

Have you been diagnosed with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer? Have you been told you have DNA Damage Repair (DDR) deficiencies? You may be eligible to take part in a clinical trial studying a potential treatment for men with this type of cancer. The TALAPRO-2 study is evaluating the safety of the study drug when taken with enzalutamide, an existing, approved treatment for metastatic prostate cancer. It will look at whether this drug combination can help keep tumors under control for longer than enzalutamide alone.
