The Inaugural GU Cast Journal Club! With Carlos Delgado & Elena Berg
Here it is, the first of our new series called GU Cast Journal Club!

And we are particularly pleased to introduce our GU Cast Journal Club Editors, Dr Carlso Delgado (Melbourne, AUS), and Dr Elena Berg (Munich, GER). Declan Murphy is anchoring today's episode while Renu is busy elsewhere. Each month, two papers will be discussed, each of which are of importance to the GU Oncology community. These may be recent papers, or occasionally we will chose a classic landmark paper in GU OncologyThe objective is to draw attention to important papers in GU Oncology, and critique these in a robust mannerThe key target audience is trainees working in Urology, Medical Oncology, Radiation Oncology, Nuclear Medicine, and diagnostic specialties such as Radiology and Pathology. But any of our regular audience are likely to enjoy this Journal Club series. For this inaugural epsiode, we have selected two very important recent papers:1.

Let's talk...penile cancer | With Asif Muneer & Nathan Lawrentschuk
Now this a topic we are ashamed to say we have barely covered in five plus years of GU Cast! A well overdue deep dive into the management of penile cancer, the rarest of all GU cancers, and fair to say the one that gets the least attention, not just from us, but from those who found research/education/novel therapies etc. We are joined in studio by two world-leading experts in penile cancer, Professors Asif Muneer (University College London), and Nathan Lawrentschuk (Royal Melbourne Hospital & Peter MacCallum Cancer Centre), to cover all the key topics in penile cancer. Everything from peculiarities in incidence, gender-neutral HPV vaccination, right up to organ-preserving surgery and optimal lymph node dissection techniques. Plus a fascinating peak into an AI project of Nathan's focussing on penile cancer diagnosis. With your usual hosts, Renu Eapen and Declan Murphy.Even better on our YouTube channel

Cardio-oncology and Lions rugby | With Dr Alex Lyon
What do Lions Rugby and Cardio-oncology have in common?? Well tune in to this episode of GU Cast to find out! The incidence of cardiovascular disease is high in our patients with advanced prostate cancer (more than maybe we appreciate), plus fundamental treatments such as androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) and androgen receptor pathway inhibitors (ARPIs) further increase the risk of cardiovascular events. And now there is a multidisciplinary field called cardio-oncology which is set to address all of this. How do we (simply) assess cardiovascular risk? Who needs to be optimised? What do we need to know about LHRH analogues vs anatagonists? What about ARPIs and drug-drug interactions with statins and blood thinners? Superb studio guest today to discuss all of this, and our first ever Cardiologist! Dr Alex Lyon (Royal Brompton Hospital, London) is a world renowned expert in cardio-oncology and joined us to run through a bit of a dummy’s guide to prostate cardio-oncology. With your usual hosts, Renu Eapen and Declan Murphy.This is a Themed Podcast supported by our Bronze Partners, Cipla. Even better on our YouTube channel.
