Challenging Cases in the Management of Newly Diagnosed and Recurrent Prostate Cancer

The specific scenarios will include men with newly diagnosed localized, locally advanced, post-operative pT3,4 and/or margin + disease in the setting of an undetectable PSA in addition to post-operative or post-radiation PSA recurrence. An audience interactive format will be used to enhance learning and provide an opportunity to ask additional questions.

Target Audience
