In one study, Dutasteride monotherapy reduces
PSA
by 50%, reduces prostate volume by 25%, and reduces tumor volume by 30%, after 6 months of treatment, compared to placebo (Moore, 2017).

1, 3 or 6 month ADT?
My
PSA
went to undetectable. Seven years later my
PSA
crept up to seven and I was put on a monthly shot of Firmagon for life. My
PSA
is again undetectable and all scans are negative, as they have always been.

My initial MRI and wait time for biopsy
PSA
rising slowly for 3 years from 4.0 to 5.1. The MRI indicates a pi-Rad level 4 lesion 10 ml, well defined with no infiltration. Either base peripheral zone 11 to 12 o clock or transitional mid gland zone 11 to 12 o clock. Will get the location cleared up.

Are we on the right track?
PSA
32. In a few small pelvic lymph nodes and a couple pelvic lesions. No other spread. PSMA pet scan detected this. We are working with a team and when we were told his diagnosis from his cancer doctor he said the Oncologist would probably do triplet therapy. She did not.

PSA & T is up
We started this journey in June 2022 and hit this PC with triple therapy to stop the cancer that had already attacked his whole skeleton. My husband has now developed a cancerous tumor in his head in the sinus cavity and behind his eye which has caused him double vision and pain. It’s wrapped around

Should go into the OMAHA2a ODM-208 (MK-5684-004): phase 3 trial?
MO is suggesting that I should go into the ODM-208 (MK-5684): phase 3 trial if
PSA
rises above 1.0.
PSA
of 1.0 or above is a entry requirement for the trial, presumable to be sure that my current treatment has failed.

Stage 4, GL 9 seeking advice
My blood work is good:
PSA
0.95 down from 70 and every other marker is green. Where do I go from here? My Gleason 4 plus 5, which is a little better than 5 plus 4. The cancer is literally all over -- multiple sites.

On treating micro-metastatic disease
Thereafter just monitor the
PSA
for any rise, and use PSMA PET scan to locate any cancer and to radiate whatever spots of cancer that are found.This May I will reach the one year mark of my ADT and seriously considering stopping the ADT because of the side effects... fatigue, muscle loss, forgetfulness

Fenbendazole
My uncle, a very fit 88-year old, was diagnosed with prostate cancer 3 1/2 years ago and while the hormonal treatment kept it in check for a couple of years, his
PSA
has now risen to 1600 and the scans show has spread to his bones.

PSA Response From Broccoli Sprout Extract (Sulforaphane) May Due To Just Being Moderate ADT
Essentially, the
PSA
lowering effect, in my opinion, is due Sulforaphane reducing Testosterone and DHT levels.

CT and Bone Scan 2 weeks after PSMA PET?
For reference, my dad re-did his
PSA
test last Wednesday (Oct/23 - so after a month), which stayed at 0.48. Now, the RO is asking us to do another
PSA
test, CT scan and bone scan, before he can see us. I imagine all this would take another 1 to 1.5 months.

Questions
In July I had the repeat
PSA

PSA
and scheduled a Biopsy. The repeats
PSA
showed an increase from July 26th to August 22nd level of 25.66.

PSA 4.5, 9% free PSA, 65 yo
Semiannual
PSA
tests have been 2.2-3.8, very weak upward trend. MRI last April was neg. Latest reading was 4.5 ng/ml, free
PSA
9%. First time urologist has mentioned free
PSA
. He recommends another MRI in April '24. Consensus guidance seems to be that biopsy is indicated if free
PSA
<10%.

So there you go - focus on the results of the scans not the
PSA
numbers.

When Should I Be Concerned About My PSA
PSA
after treatment. I've had a few bounces and even though I was told
PSA
bounces were to be expected, it's been about three years and seven months. When looking at my most recent
PSA
, you'll notice it went up again. So, my question is this recent
PSA
something I should be concerned about?
