Prof Tilley contributes to the US Prostate Cancer Foundation Retreat: State of Science Report.
Research from Prof Tilley’s laboratory on “Nuclear receptor biology in castration resistant prostate cancer” was presented at the 28th Annual Prostate Cancer Foundation (PCF) Scientific Retreat, Carlsbad, USA in November, 2021. In a session that focused on nuclear receptor biology, including the role of GR in CRPC and its potential as a therapeutic target, as well as the impact of AR agonism in prostate cancer and ER-positive breast cancer, Prof Tilley presented data that suggested a role for potent AR agonists and that warranted further study into the potential for selective AR modulators in the treatment of breast and prostate cancer. His paper formed part of the PCF’s State of Science Report. In addition, the PCF Retreat Scientific Meeting Report will be published in the scientific journal, The Prostate.
