    Genomic profiling represents the first clinical practice–ready tool for precision oncology in metastatic prostate cancer. Here we outline current testing considerations and gray zones regarding how best to apply genomic testing in the clinic. The lessons we learn today will continue to shape how we integrate evolving biology and future technologies into practice.

    Biomarkers are now ubiquitous in prostate cancer care. In addition to longstanding use of prostate-specific antigen, we now have secondary serum-, urine-, and tissue-based markers that help in optimizing patient care and patient compliance with therapeutic recommendations. The ship has sailed: these markers are useful and are here to stay.

    Minimal use of hemostatic energy close to the neurovascular bundle has been a “dogma” of the nerve-sparing technique. We demonstrate that dissection of the lateral prostatic pedicle with bipolar energy is oncologically and functionally similar to the standard approach with shorter operative time.

    There are evidence-practice gaps in urology. Implementation science approaches should be used to improve adherence to clinical practice guidelines. This will require a concerted effort from multiple stakeholders to describe practice variations, understand reasons for nonadherence, and design implementation interventions.

    Patients with advanced genitourinary cancers experience clinically relevant psychosocial distress. Routine psychosocial screening has the ability to identify patients’ unmet needs and assist the health care team in addressing such symptoms. Effective supportive care modalities, including remote home-based interventions, have the potential to mitigate emotional symptom burden and improve disease…
