Dr Heather Payne Consultant Clinical Oncologist, University College Hospital I am a Consultant in Clinical Oncology at University College Hospital, London. I trained at St Mary’s Hospital London and after qualifying spent time working in general medicine both in London and also in Haiti where conventional medicine was mixed with voodoo practices. I returned to London to train as a Clinical Oncologist and during this time developed an interest in urological oncology. I now have a busy practice in a teaching hospital where I work within a multidisciplinary team. I am actively involved in clinical research in all these therapeutic areas and have pioneered a programme of high dose rate brachytherapy for prostate cancer. My current research interests also include hormone therapy, sensitisation of hormones and radiotherapy, predictive indices for bowel toxicity with radiotherapy, chemotherapy and quality of life and decision making for men with prostate cancer. I am Principle Investigator in a number of international multi-centre and local studies. I am a trustee of the Prostate Cancer Research Centre, Prostate UK and the chairman of the British Uro-oncology Group (BUG) I am the oncology lead for the National Prostate Cancer Audit. Dr Shonit Punwani Senior Lecturer and Honorary Consultant Radiologist, University College London Hospital Dr Shonit Punwani is a Senior Lecturer in Oncological Imaging at University College London and Honorary Consultant Radiologist specialising in oncological radiology at University College London Hospital. He leads the 3T MR Research Facility at UCLH, developing novel MRI techniques for first-in-man oncological imaging studies.

Abstracts (where supplied) Multi-parametric prostate MRI - can it improve patient care? Mrs Caroline Moore The use of mpMRI for the detection and localisation of prostate cancer has expanded its use in localised disease in the last few years. The potential for it to improve patient care is within a number of different areas: 1. Avoiding a biopsy for men with a low risk of clinically important disease 2. Targeting a biopsy for those men at higher risk of clinically important disease 3. Monitoring on surveillance 4. Targeting treatment – focal and radical therapies Each of these will be discussed in turn, including current recommendations and opportunities for future research. What happens to patients with metastatic disease? Dr Heather Payne For many years the treatment options for the management of advanced prostate cancer were limited and this stage of the disease was approached with a resigned nihilism by many clinicians. The last decade has changed this attitude to one of extreme optimism as a number of new drugs have been shown to increase survival in addition to reducing symptoms and improving quality of life for men suffering with this stage of prostate cancer. The mainstay of therapy for men with advanced prostate cancer is the use of androgen-deprivation therapy. The majority of men will have good biochemical and clinical response for several years but ultimately the cancer will progress despite castrate levels of serum testosterone (castrate-resistant prostate cancer – CRPC). There were previously few options in this setting until 2004 when the TAX327 study demonstrated a survival benefit with the chemotherapy agent docetaxel when compared to mitoxantrone (both drugs given in combination with prednisolone). In 2010 further survival advantages were shown in addition to symptomatic benefits in phase 3 clinical trials for the hormone drug abiraterone acetate and the chemotherapy agent cabazitaxel (both in combination with prednisolone) and the antiandrogen enzalutamide when investigated in the post docetaxel setting. More recently, phase 3 trials have shown significant benefits for abiraterone, enzalutamide and the bone specific agent radium as first line of therapy for CRPC. There are many new drugs in late stage clinical trials and the treatment options are likely to increase further in the future. At the present time there is no robust data for the sequencing of these compounds.


Learning Objectives:

1. To understand the initial systemic therapy for metastatic prostate cancer 2. To be aware of the definition of castrate resistant prostate cancer 3. To have an awareness of the new drugs for castrate resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) 4. To have an awareness of the need for radiological assessment in monitoring disease response

Multi-parametric prostate MRI basics Dr Alex Kirkham We describe the main sequences used for prostate MRI and their relative utility, address the use of endorectal coils and 3T machines, discuss the reporting systems currently in use and suggest the need for minimum standards for those reporting multiparametric MRI.

Whole body MRI for metastatic prostate cancer Professor Anwar Padhani Challenges persist when assessing the presence and response of metastatic bone disease in prostate cancer patients. Current limitations can be directly ascribed to ineffective current diagnostic tools (including PSA and bone scans) which are unable to accurately predict which patient has metastatic disease, to predict who will benefit from targeted treatments and to identify who is positively benefiting early after starting treatment. Poor diagnostic tools in part contribute to limited rates and durations of response of targeted therapies. This is because of late detection of metastatic disease (larger tumor load), heterogeneity of target expression & responses are not considered by tools such as PSA and the inability to detect failure of response in a timely way impairs the progress of patients through standard therapies so they become eligible for clinical trials of emerging therapies with novel mechanisms of action. Given that radiologic detection and treatment of asymptomatic/ mildly symptomatic mCRPC may be of clinical benefit, is it time to reconsider the central role of bone scans in directing patient management? We are now clear that planar Tc-99m BS do NOT provide robust evidence for the presence or absence of early M+ disease (+SPECT CT is better). Numerous studies show the superiority of modern imaging methods (Choline/NaF PET/CT & MRI) for detecting and assessing bone metastases at ever lower PSA levels. This talk focuses on diffusion MRI as part of whole body MRI both for detection and therapy assessment.


Patient care indications for WB-MRI in prostate cancer that will be discussed include: • High risk prostate cancer (Gl ≥8 and/or PSA >20 ng/ml) at presentation or rapid rising PSA (doubling time <12 months) in previously treated patients. This is to replace current combine use of bone scan and abdo-pelvic CT scan • Equivocal bone scans in newly diagnosed patients • Query osteoporotic/metastatic fracture (androgen deprivation and steroids cause osteoporosis) • Known extensive spinal bony metastases (BS or CT) – to detect clinically occult spinal cord compression. Spinal MRI examinations are already recommended by NICE guidelines (2014) for this indication. • Rule out clinically occult distant metastases in locally recurrent disease when salvage therapy is being considered (confirm M0 disease) • Detecting oligo-metastatic disease when radical local therapy is an option (create early M+ subgroup). This is to defer starting androgen blockage for as long as possible. • To monitor response in metastatic castrate resistant patients with bone disease (particularly PSA non- or oligo-secretors), being treated with chemotherapy or novel therapies.
