GUIDANCE trial
I'm in the low Decipher score group (0.34), but there is still a 50% chance that I'll have to do
ADT
with it as part of the randomization in the study. Has anyone else had the vessel sparing procedure or part of this study? Curious on your outcomes (I know everyone's experience will be different).

Update on my father
He’s been on
ADT
- Eligard shots every 3 months and prednisone + zytiga everyday. It’s challenging as I work with him and see all the ins and outs of his behaviour while on those meds. He remains undetectable on the psa scale as of now (<0.02) Diagnosis in 2019 .

Any Curative Treatments after RT as Sole Primary Treatment?
(See Bio-not even any
ADT
). PSMA-PET is clear currently, so no target for radiation. PSA has been rising, but not officially nadir plus 2, but the old 3 rises in a row has been reached.

ADT or Hospice?
The family is at a crossroads, deciding between starting him on
ADT
or having him enter hospice. As the urologist described it, without
ADT
he will get to the point where his bone structure can't support any body weight.

Xtandi (enzalutamide) +ADT slows metastases in recurrent men
We recently saw that
ADT
+Erleada (apalutamide) slows progression compared to
ADT
alone.

RP + Radiation Question
Based on my age, be aggressive as possible and eliminate as much as the PC as possible via RP+
ADT
+RAD, or 2.) Based on my age, the additive side effects of RP+
ADT
+RAD may take quite a toll/ quality of life impact on someone who has "lots of years ahead".

Ginseng and Testosterone
I know whilst on
adt
it helps with overall fatigue but would that be defeating the object of the pc cells feeding on more produced testosterone, sounds like a double edged sword. Any comments would bd appreciated.

Asking for best guess info
I've also read that losing muscle mass contributes to kidney problems so
ADT
seems contributory as well. Doctors won't commit to saying what it all means, but coupled with the fact that the MO said in January that w/o treatment his prognosis would be about a year.....what can we expect?

Maddening Contradictory Advice
Latest update on my still hormone sensitive lymph nodes-only but widespread metastatic cancer is the Dexa scan showing I now have Osteopenia (no doubt occasioned by
ADT
regimen and lack of Testosterone).

PSA down but mets increasing?
I've been on
ADT
+ Xtandi for about a year (see my Bio for details) and my PSA has been slowly and steadily reducing over that time - now down to 0.05.

Side effects experienced once you add Zytiga to Orgovyx
( especially if it was added after
ADT
) Of course I understand that everyone is different in their experiences....but would be helpful to hear how you managed with both treatments. Thanks !

Oar Gel and gold placements for beginners on this journey
I have 9 weeks of RT prescribed with 9 months of
ADT
. I have been adamant about not screwing up my rectum, since I am an educator that still works. So I just completed the gold insertions and the barragel placement.

Another Cialis Question
Anyway, since there’s still a ways to go on this
ADT
journey, I wanted to see if he should be back on Cialis again.

QOL - Keep Going
Sightseeing - img 1851 shows me next to david - I'm the one on the left...with
ADT
. So it may look like I'm emotional in Img Wa000 - because i'm realizing that this is the last time I'll be here.

Do you try to keep your diagnosis private?
She almost lost me but I have returned to vigor and preparing for this journey through radiation and
ADT
next month. However, because I still work and am at a point where my business may be acquired, I do not wish to share my diagnosis publicly and to keep it to myself.

Antibody-drug conjugates (ADT): great perspective (from the latest AACR convention)
There are still some problems with regard to payload release, but they are almost ready to attack most cancer types! https://www.biospace.com/article/aacr-cancer-treatment-and-the-promise-of-antibody-drug-conjugates-/
