Listen Later

In this insightful episode of our podcast, Dr. Geo sits down with the distinguished Dr. Alicia Morgan, a genital urinary medical oncologist at Dana-Farber Cancer Institute and the medical director of their survivorship program. This conversation is particularly close to the heart of many of our listeners who have shared their concerns about prostate cancer treatment, especially regarding androgen deprivation therapy (ADT).

Dr. Morgan, known for her patient-centered approach, brings her wealth of experience in clinical trials and patient-reported outcomes. She discusses the importance of integrating patient preferences and beliefs into clinical decision-making, a philosophy that aligns perfectly with Dr. Geo's integrative approach.

Key topics include:

- ADT Explained: Delving into the suitable candidates for ADT and the viability of intermittent therapy.

- Chemotherapy Insights: Discussing the role of Dolcetaxel, as highlighted in the pivotal Charter trial, in treating advanced prostate cancer.

- Patient-Centric Care: Dr. Morgan and Dr. Geo discuss balancing life-saving treatments with quality-of-life considerations.

Since 2016, Dr. Morgan has also served as the president of the medical advisory board at Zero, a leading nonprofit dedicated to prostate cancer education and research. Her insights on prostate cancer research and treatment landscape are invaluable.

Join us for this compelling conversation as we explore the nuances of prostate cancer treatment and the innovative ways Dr. Morgan helps patients navigate their journey toward health and well-being.
