PSA up to 150 on Olaprib, any insight on what’s next?
Hi all, my dads history is mostly in my profile but in short he started on Zytiga a year ago. Zytiga worked well but had major side effects and lead to a switch to Erleada. Erleada failed at the time shown in the picture with the orange circle and he switched to Olaprib by the time he got the PSA results

Options when Docetaxel stops working
Hi everyone- My brother was diagnosed with stage 4 prostate cancer in April of 2021. His PSA was 52 at the time of his diagnosis. He went on Lupron and Abiraterone which took his PSA to .03 and kept it low until Oct 2022. It went to 8.9 and his doctor put him on Docetaxel chemo. His PSA has continued

Pluvicto Aftereffects SMART syndrome?

Radiation Interruption
Hi....all the best to your Dad. I have no idea if stopping radiation for a time would m after. I did 5 on 2 days off for 28 treatments. You did not mention any PSA or Gleason number. Not sure that would matter...but someone here might venture another opinion based on those numbers and If he is metastatic

SIB/Flame Protocol
The RO recommends Simultaneous Integrated Boost (SIB) as part of my treatment. PSA was 19.76 (4/2023), then 21.78 (5/2023 to confirm initial PSA). He is concerned that the PSA does not match the Gleason score (4+3, grade 3) as PSA has surpassed 20. Multiplanar MRI and PSMA PET indicated no metastasis

Your thoughts on next course of action
First, I'd like to thank the many good folks that contribute this forum. Your inputs have been a life send to me over the past several years, especially Tall Allen who recommended UW Medicine where my MO and RO are located. They have been fantastic to work with. The short story - Diagnosed in 2018.

PLUVICTO
I finished 6 treatments of Pluvicto in May 2023 with negligible PSA readings. In August of 23 my PSA jumped to 2.3, my September 14 PSA is 16.8. It seems like Pluvicto is losing it's grip. I have an appointment with my oncologist on September 25. I am sure he will order a PSMA scan. I am curious as to

should I stop Zytiga early?
hello, i’m new here and encouraged by all the experience and caring nature of the conversations. Would love if anyone has wisdom around a decision to stop Zytiga early? I am 56 and was diagnosed 2/21 with Gleason 9 no lymph nodes invasion, but some vesicle invasion and perhaps a little outside margins

Pluvicto failed - what is next?
Hello Warriors Well it looks like pluvicto has failed. I just got my most recent PSA test after my fourth injection and my PSA has now gone from 20 to 30. Also my PSMA scan says that my cancer is no more stable and on the move with more tracers. Still just in the bones. Pluvicto was brutal on my
