Prostate cancer is a slowly progressing cancer which can be treated effectively if detection occurs in early stage. In recent years, there are several FDA approved drugs which are effective for late stage prostate cancer patients. I personally don't think this is a promising research area. More difficult types of cancer are, for example, pancreatic cancer (which killed Steve Jobs) and melanoma.
