The modern reference work on the subject seems to be [1], but it spends only a page and a half on the subject of primes in multivariate quadratic polynomials (pp. 396-397). More than half this space is devoted to Iwaniec's 1974 result. The balance mentions Sarnak's application to the Problem of Apollonius and a result of "J. Cho and H. Kim" on counting primes in $\mathbb{Q}[\sqrt{-2}].$ So nothing there. Pleasants [2] shows that, subject to a Davenport-Lewis [3] condition on the $h^*$ (a complexity measure on the cubic form part), multivariate cubic polynomials have the expected number of primes. Unfortunately this condition requires (as a necessary but insufficient condition) that there be at least 8 variables. Further, it double-counts repeated primes. Goldoni [4] recently wrote a thesis on this general topic. His new results (Chapter 5) on the $h$ and $h^*$ invariants make it easier to use the results of Pleasants but do not extend them to cubic polynomials with fewer than 8 variables. Of course I would be remiss in failing to mention the groundbreaking work of Heath-Brown [5], building on Friedlander & Iwaniec [6]. These results will no doubt clear the way for broader research, but so far have not been generalized. So in short it appears that: * Nothing further is known about primes represented by quadratic polynomials. * Apart from $x^3+2y^3$, almost nothing is known about which primes are represented by cubic polynomials, though some results are known for how often such polynomials take on prime values provided $h^*$ and hence the number of variables is large enough.
