Christopher Sweeney, MBBS, of Dana-Farber Cancer Institute, discusses phase III findings from the IPATential150 trial, which showed the effectiveness of ipatasertib plus abiraterone as first-line treatment in patients with metastatic castration-resistant prostate cancer vs placebo plus abiraterone. Analyses of biomarkers linked to the PI3K/AKT pathway, a subtype with a poor prognosis, further support this therapeutic option (Abstract 13).
