Aetna appeal for Firmagon denial
The doctor prescribed 2 years of
ADT
plus 5 weeks of IMRT. Had first 240 mg dose of firmagon on September 14 with no major side effects so far. Doctor used firmagon to avoid testosterone surge, and after conferring with MO, he agreed to have my husband stay with the firmagon.

PSA still low but cancer progressing
I've been on
ADT
plus Xtandi for about a year (see my profile) and my PSA has steadily reduced and stayed low. However, my latest CT scan shows that the tumours on my bones and lymph nodes are increasing in size and there are now a few small lesions appearing in my liver for the first time.

Questions about protocol changes regarding ADT from 2nd opinion.
However I do have the evidence of adenocarcinoma in the prostate and am starting on this road through RT (with an OAR barrier) and
ADT
scheduled next month. My question: is there a difference between Eligard and Lupron? My reading says they are for "advanced prostate cancer."

Cognition Issues
Since then he has been intermittently on
ADT
until he because Castrate resistant about a year ago. He is now on a clinical trial with NUBEQA plus Lupron. It brought his PSA from 14 to 4.5 and it is just setting around there for about 3 months.

Radiation for Salvage Treatment
However, I would like to know if weeks of external radiation with
ADT
, is the best treatment option here. The idea of blindly radiating pelvic area with a re-recurrence a few years later does not appeal to me. Not to mention possible lingering side effects from radiation.

Started MRI Guided SBRT at MSK
I started in mid-July a four month course of
ADT
with Orgovyx. So far I have experienced the typical side effects... mild hot flashes, loss of libido, ED and difficulty reaching orgasm. My blood sugars are rising by still under control.

Stopped taking Orgovyx 7 months ago (T recovery only 80 baseline was 286 ) do I start TRT? am I risking Reoccurrence?
(which was fine) Advised when given choice of
adt
-4 months of orgovyxx- then 4 months for recovery of T- that didn't happen.

Newly detectable PSA after prostatectomy: RT + ADT planned; add Erleada?
Second opinion MO at UCLA recommends adding Erleada to
ADT
based on unpublished data from EMBARK and FORMULA 509. Primary MO discussed my case with 3 colleagues at other centers and says there is insufficient evidence for adding Erleada. Thoughts?

Orgovyx Insurance Approval
If I have to do
ADT
(12 months), I would like to take the one less likely to cause serious cardio issues. Express Scripts has issued a denial which I intend to appeal.

New to this: travel during ADT & post EBRT?
Saw an oncologist and he explained normal course of treatment: start
ADT
, wait 2 months, do EBRT for appx 28 sessions. Continue on
ADT
for another few months, total 6 months. I go back to him early September to discuss PSMA/PET results and start whatever it is I need to do.
