The good news is there have been significant advances over the past decade in treatment for men with advanced prostate cancer. Meanwhile other advances, such as the use of MRI scans rather than ultrasound (the standard tool), are set to make a huge difference in diagnosis. Most private hospitals and some NHS cancer units now offer MRI before a first biopsy to map out the prostate and guide the biopsy needle.

Personalized pancreatic cancer therapies based on tumor genomics may take too long to prepare to be helpful, according to a small clinical trial.
Current and Emerging Treatments for Brain Metastases
Encouragingly, some molecularly targeted drugs already appear to have efficacy against certain tumors and accompanying cerebral edema. Conventional treatment modalities such as surgery and radiation have iteratively reached new levels of refinement. However, these achievements are somewhat muted by the emergence of magnetic resonance (MR)-guided laser interstitial thermal therapy, a minimally invasive neuroablative technique. On the horizon, MR-guided focused ultrasound surgery is similarly intriguing.

Brain Metastases: The Changing Landscape
It is time to put aside the pessimism of the past when it comes to brain metastases and embrace the wide array of clinical investigational opportunities arising in this field.

Management of Brain Metastases in the Era of Targeted and Immunomodulatory Therapies
Some targeted systemic therapies have demonstrated evidence of activity in the brain—specifically in melanoma, lung cancers, and breast cancers—and these agents warrant further study in clinical trials
