Prolia shots
After 4+ years of Actonel is Prolia a good choice for continued treatment of osteoporosis? I will be asking my rheumatologist the same question next time I see her. I am due for another bone scan so she will most likely want to see that first but based on the first 2 tests I am going downhill bone-wise

Prebiotic Probiotic Antibiotic... What's the deal?
Ok... Antibiotic is just added to the post title for rhyming. This post is not about antibiotic. So what is this about? Bacillus Subtilis PXN21 beneficial for PD... And Bio-Kult sells out. Thankfully pvw2 pointed out that any Subtilis strain works L. Plantarum PS128 beneficial for PD... And

European Medicines Agency approves Phase II trial of uTRACE in prostate cancer: good news because they also have uTREAT
While uTRACE is a diagnostic tool, its brother uTREAT will be a very interesting radioligand for drug delivery in the near future (like Actinium, Lutetium & Co) uTRACE is used as a PET-tracer ligand that targets the uPAR receptor, which is known to be a biomarker for cancer aggressiveness. https:

10-year update still shows no benefit to ART vs early SRT
ART
= adjuvant radiation therapy, within 6 months after radical prostatectomy (RP)
early SRT
= salvage radiation therapy, after PSA ≥ 0.1ng/ml or 3 consecutive rises. Median was 0.2 ng/ml. Median 1 ½ years after RP. Patients risked nothing by waiting, and gained urinary and fecal continence

Moving on to Provenge/Sipuleucel-t
We met with my husband's onc yesterday to discuss the next move since the 3 years of Abiraraterone/prednisone has run its course. His psa numbers are now around 2.0 (up from a low of .04) and psma scan indicates that bone met volume is quite low. A recent lab biopsy didn't reveal much... The good doc

Please help us decide on next treatment
Hi, my Dad was diagnosed back in 2021 with stage IV, Gleason 9, oligometastatic. He had 6 weeks of radiation at the time of diagnosis and has been for the past 2.5 years on Abiraterone, Prednisone and Lupron. As I mentioned in my prior post my Dad’s PSA started going up. He had a PSMA Pet scan and it

Update: NEPC Treatment
A few people messaged me regarding updates about my dad’s participation in Duke CHAMP trial for small cell/NEPC. He was admitted into trial Dec ‘23 and received 3 immunotherapy infusions until he had a very severe allergic reaction causing intense itching and grade 4 red rash all over his body. He admitted

Aquablation with APC
Hi there - does anyone here have experience with an aquablation procedure to improve urinary symptoms? My father is considering it. He has been on doublet therapy for 1.5 years, his PSA recently started to tick up a little. It's been difficult to get a clear answer on whether the procedure poses any

Looking for advice for my newly diagnosed dad
Hello, I was wondering if you can offer some thoughts on my dad’s situation. He was diagnosed with prostate cancer in February after a week in hospital with urine retention. A Ct scan he had in hospital showed 2 small mets in pelvic area. He’s had a biopsy which showed Gleason 4 +5 and his PSA in hospital

Reference Library of Papers about Dutasteride for Treating Prostate Cancer
Here is a library of 20 papers about using Dutasteride to treat prostate cancer. In one study, Dutasteride monotherapy reduces PSA by 50%, reduces prostate volume by 25%, and reduces tumor volume by 30%, after 6 months of treatment, compared to placebo (Moore, 2017). https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov

PSMA and bladder Cancer?
I have been having various difficulties with urination and know that my bladder is messed up. I have radiation cystitis and who knows what else. I saw my urologist recently and he had little to offer, sort of said yes you are a mess and pretty much left it at that. I have had PSMA pet scans and SPECT

Satisfaction with AUS after Radiation
If you have had an AUS implanted after receiving radiation are you satisfied with your decision and has it improved your quality of life? Or do you regret having an AUS implanted and if so why? I have had both a prostatectomy and salvage radiation (see profile). I regained continence after the prostatectomy
