Suggest talking to Denmeade.

Link to a trial... Maybe explain why the possible use of Denmeade? Curious...

Sure. Denmeade is the chief investigator for most BAT trials. I've contacted Schweizer and he won't reply to me unless I am a patient at his hospital. Denmeade replies and has asked MOs to contact him if they have questions about BAT.

Hahaha, thanks, I read too quickly and thought I seen "take" not talk. Apologies, and thank you for replying.

If you can grind him up and bottle him, I'd suggest a Denmeade dose of 150 mg BID. Make sure to grind up some Antonarakis to mitigate the side effects.

Olaparib, like Indomethacin, is an AKR1C3 inhibitor [go.drugbank.com/polypeptide...]. AKR1C3 plays an important role in resistance to second-generation antiandrogens, so Olaparib would be a strategy to overcome treatment resistance.

Olaparib synergizes with BAT. We have trial data. Double bang for the buck.

Sorry. I just read your bio and see that you're castration sensitive. Denmeade might not be able to help.
