Hi from USA. Anyone on Provenge?

1 Reply

Howdy to group from USA! Am 72, GM, 43 years with hubby. Live near NYC.

Anyone on Provenge, the DNA based vaccine? Might start soon. Problems with it? Downsides? Upsides? Preparation complexities?

Diagnosed 13 years ago with inoperable irradiatable PC - PSA was 23

Gleason: highest (100% of 14 samples malignant)

On Lupron only mostly-continously 13 years, Now: resistant. Latest PSA14, crept up from 0 at 13 yrs ago after first injection.

No metastasis yet says CT Scans.
