Just heard that a new treatment is soon to be approved called Lynparza(olaparib), have any of you been on a trial using this? Or is it still hush hush?

While under the care of Dr. Charles “Snuffy” Myers, he prescribed Lynparza for me after Guardant360 liquid biopsy revealed an ATM defect. This was in early 2017. It worked for me for about 9 months.

Best Wishes. Never Give In.

Hey vandy69!

Too bad Dr. Charles "Snuffy" Meyers has retired. He still posts some videos. He was ahead of his time. His willingness to think and use new approaches has given extra time to many men.

I looked it up but found not alot on our condition, mostly breast cancer and the list of side effects do not look like fun.

Not what you're looking for?
