Came across intriguing papers regarding the use of Naletrexone (an anti-opoid drug) for pain control and even possible anti-cancer activity. Taken from peoplespharmacy.com website.
Early investigation so still speculative, but something to keep an eye on. Looks like it is being taken seriously by investigators.
You might want to join the LDN site. I was a member about 5 years ago. Wasn't much there to suggest probable benefit for PCa, but I know a couple of men who were enthusiastic.
My husband was on it for about 6 months when he was first diagnosed in 2013 - prescribed by his Dr. in the UK where we were living at the time. His NYC Dr. has prescribed it and he started it about 1.5 weeks ago.
Dr. Khan of Medicor Cancer Center in Toronto is on it - he treated my husband with oral DCA for about 4 months - in 2014 - the side effects were too much so he stopped. But he did get a reduction in PSA from about 60 - 29 during that time. IV DCA which apparently has little to no side effects is among the treatments he is considering now.
