KOL Views Q&A: Prostate cancer at ASCO 2026—detailed looks at upstream data for J&J's Erleada, Pfizer's Talzenna

PROTEUS Phase 3 trial for Erleada plus hormone therapy before and after prostatectomy shows 9-fold higher rate of near‑complete pathological response and 20% lower risk of metastasis or death in high‑risk localized prostate cancer.

TALAPRO‑3 Phase 3 trial for Talzenna plus Xtandi vs Xtandi plus placebo in HRR‑altered mCSPC shows 52% reduction in rPFS risk (BRCAm 63%, non‑BRCAm 43%) and a favorable OS trend; TALZENNA plus XTANDI is already approved in mCRPC in the US and EU, and diagnostics are newly cleared to support this indication.
