New drug combo shows significant survival benefits for men with advanced prostate cancer.

A combination of talazoparib and enzalutamide has shown significant improvements in overall survival and delayed cancer progression in men with advanced prostate cancer, according to phase 3 trial results. Patients receiving the combination treatment lived an average of 45.8 months, compared to 37 months for those on enzalutamide alone. The treatment benefited patients regardless of their genetic makeup. Common serious side effects included anemia and low white blood cell counts. These findings suggest a promising new treatment option for advanced prostate cancer.
