Honored to again be a "voice" on Prostate Cancer Patient Voices (CPV). With patient-centered care, it’s incumbent on the patient to educate themselves, enabling them to be more proactive and confident in their decisions during a very scary and stressful time. CPV is a way to learn from other patients. CPV is for patients by patients. CPV is a collaboration between Prostate Cancer Foundation & UroToday. Zachary Klaassen

Patients with mCRPC may have the option for targeted therapy based on certain changes (alterations) in their genes. These alterations may be presented in their tumor and/or in the genes inherited from their parents. This new “liquid biopsy” test allows your doctor to test your blood for tumor DNA to see whether these alterations are present. This can help you and your doctor decide whether combination therapy with niraparib and abiraterone acetate might be effective for you. https://bit.ly/4cJVH4B
