@neerajaiims @huntsmancancer discuss how they manage localized small cell and neuroendocrine prostate cancer—rare, aggressive variants that require platinum-based chemotherapy, thorough staging, and multidisciplinary care. Pure small cell disease is treated with platinum–etoposide and radiation, whereas mixed adenocarcinoma/neuroendocrine tumors are approached more like very high-risk prostate cancer with taxane–platinum plus ADT, surgical relief of obstruction when needed, and CT-based surveillance since PSMA PET and PSA can both be misleading.
