Hi, I'm contemplating going for Bepiroversin jabs, to reduce my HbsAg levels, which currently stands at 1012 iu/mL, with treatment (from a starting level of 3k+ 12 years ago). I understand Bepiroversin treatment especially works on people with a low HbsAg level. What number/s is considered a low?

Stats. 39, 3+4 Gleason, PSA 6.28, diagnosed 1 May. Duke didn't want to do radiation. Flat out told me they wouldn't radiate a 39 year old prostate.

Because, time is what we need!!!! ENV105, a monoclonal antibody, is showing promise for treating castrate-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) by targeting CD105, a protein linked to tumor resistance. By disrupting the BMP/CD105 signaling pathway, ENV105 enhances the effectiveness of androgen receptor inhibitors

I’m turning 75 with Gleason3+4 Stage 2b confirmed after RARP in Sept 2019 with positive surgical margin. It was 3+3 preopt so they did not perform pelvic L/N exploration.

And it looks like it is way more reliable than 177Lu...

Preliminary data from the SECuRE trial show promising results, with 73% of patients

Dear Friends, please see Bio for more info. My dad is experiencing his 2nd BCR. PSA has gone from 0.12 to 0.20 in the past 3 months.
