Breaking News podcast just after the long-awaited PROTEUS trial reads out at the ASCO Plenary in Chicago! Plus a simultaneous NEJM paper! Huge day for prostate cancer surgery. 
Declan and Renu are joined by lead author Dr Mary-Ellen Taplin (Dana Farber Cancer Institute & Harvard University), to tell us about her decades long journey to this huge moment today. PROTEUS is a huge (2,100 men) phase III RCT of men undergoing radical prostatectomy for high-risk prostate cancer, randomised to receive peri-operative ADT + placebo, or ADT plus apalutamide. Mary-Ellen talks to us about the top-line results, and we consider whether this is truly a practice-changing study. Declan also had the honour of being the Discussant at teh ASCO Plenary so he is well placed to give his opinion. 
Your usual hosts are Declan Murphy & Renu Eapen.
