Personalized Medicine: Leave no Patient Behind; Report From the 2024 Coffey-Holden Prostate Cancer Academy Meeting

The 11th Annual 2024 Coffey - Holden Prostate Cancer Academy (CHPCA) Meeting, was themed "Personalized Medicine: Leave No Patient Behind," and was held from June 20 to 23, 2024 at the University of California, Los Angeles, Luskin Conference Center, in Los Angeles, CA. The CHPCA Meeting is an academy-styled annual conference organized by the Prostate Cancer Foundation, to focus discussion on the most critical emerging research that have the greatest potential to advance knowledge of prostate cancer biology and treatment. The 2024 CHPCA Meeting was attended by 75 academic investigators and included 37 talks across 8 sessions. The meeting sessions focused on: novel human, mouse and systems biology research models, novel immunotherapies for prostate cancer, efforts to overcome treatment resistance, the role of metabolism and diet in prostate cancer biology and as a therapeutic target, mechanisms that drive differentiation into neuroendocrine cancer subtypes, the evolving prostate cancer epigenome in disease progression and treatment resistance, and machine learning and advanced computational approaches for precision oncology. This article summarizes the presentations and discussions from the 2024 CHPCA Meeting. We hope that sharing this knowledge will inspire and accelerate research into new discoveries and solutions for prostate cancer.
