OligoMetastatic Prostate Cancer - Dr Eugene Kwon of Mayo Clinic

[Paul Edwards]

Dr Eugene Kwon of the Mayo Clinic describes himself as a someone who is "innovative, who pushes the envelope" and who treats "aggressively."   Here is a very interesting talk given by him at the 2014 PCRI Conference.

 

• Greater emphasis should be placed on identification and treatment of oligo-mets
• Treatments should focus on potentially curative and not "palliative" outcomes
• Available agents and technologies should be combined aggressively to evoke better outcomes
• Must abandon irrational obsession with one-step palliative approaches that have no prospect of cure and only prolong inevitable failure
