hello to all in the oesophageal cancer community. not necessarily a community that anyone would particularly choose to be in but also comforting to know others are in the same situation. my husband was diagnosed with stage 2 OG in September 2023. he has had four chemo sessions and is due to have surgery

advice for docetaxel
I have read several posts of those who have done docetaxel and done a little research on the Internet and YouTube to try to offset side effects. I am 51 years old and was diagnosed five years ago with advanced prostate cancer Gleason score 9 and a few spots to the bones. pelvic area, spine and ribs.

PSA testing comparison question
I know that PSA results can vary, particularly if processed by different labs. Knowing this, I do have a question. Quick recap, I completed 20 rounds of radiation at UCLA with Kishan back in April of this year. At the same time, I began 6 months of ADT. Over the past few months, while getting my

PSMA scans and radiation of oligometastases
I need some advice on a subject that I know has been covered before: PSMA scans and radiation of oligometastases. G4+5=9, RP in 2014. Positive margins, IMRT and ADT in 2015. PSA undetectable until 2019, now slowly rising at 0.40, doubling time 11 months. My questions/concerns about the scan

Confused by Decipher Test
Hi all, new here. I signed up to finish reading an article and then saw these posts in an email to me. What a great resource for men with prostate cancer. My PSA went up to 4.4 and then had an MRI which showed a two suspicious lesions (PI-RADS 4 and a PI-RAD 3). Had a biopsy 3 weeks ago and it showed

Biopsy results in 2 weeks - questions?
I've finally got an appointment to get the results of my prostate biopsy on Monday in 2 weeks time. It's taken quite a while. My PSA was 12 and an MRI scan showed a dodgy area on the front of the prostate. My PI-RADS score was 5. I was then booked for a biopsy which got deferred 3 times. I was told I

PSMA/PET SCAN methodology
I'm having PSMA next week and am confused a little about the equipment used. In all my reading about the test, a CT or MRI is used in conjunction with the PSMA Pet, When I looked at my upcoming test on the portal it says PET SKULLBASE TO MIDTHIGH NOPR SUBSEQUENT. That tells me it's a PET Scan and

Pre Op assessment
I was diagnosed in July with stage 4 endo/adeno, bilateral endometriomas and a frozen pelvis, large ovarian cysts, enlarged falopian tubes following MRI and various ultrasounds. I have been on prostrop since, while on the waiting list for surgery. Last month I received a call from the endo nurse saying

2nd recurrence
Hi Ladies as you know I have already posted that I have started treatment for a 2nd recurrence of my Stage 2 OC. I was diagnosed in 2021 and had surgery and 6 cycles of successful Chemo. I started to feel unwell around October time with upper right back pain. CT and MRI were clear. CA125 did start

Genetic therapy: for solid malignancy hopefully soon
ok, I post them also because they are fellow Italians! But the platform is very promising even if clinical use has been approved only for glioma and glioblastoma at the moment. But there are clinical trials going on for solid tumors, prostate included. https://www.genenta.com/wp-content/uploads/2021

A potential game-changer for CAR T cell therapy: mutations in cancer engineered to beat cancer
CAR T therapy has been successful in some acute blood cancers. Response rates, however, are considerably lower in CLL and solid tumours, with T cell exhaustion and antigen escape being shared issues. A potentially game-changing advance in solid tumour CAR T technology may therefore be relevant to CAR

PSA moving way too fast .
My prostate was removed 2002 at which time my PSA went to -0 . Five years later it came back and since than it kept on going up very slow till 2020 when I had COVID-19 which almost killed me . As soo as I started feeling better my PSA went from 12 to 25 in a very short time . I do check it every six

liver biopsy- what does it mean.
Oncologist doctor ordered the biopsy last year but never really explained it. He only said that the cancer was caused by the prostate cancer. Which was a good sign. Immunohistochemical stains demonstrate tumor cells are positive for NKX3.1, PSA, TTF-1 and focally for CK20, while negative for CK7

Been through the wringer and back over the past month. Scans showed progression. Had bone only mets and now showing inflammation in my lungs. Had more scans and genomic testing for mutations and it turns out I have no mutations that have been studied yet. My oncologist is putting me on Xeloda and says
