Breast cancer

I can post in Fight Prostate Cancer community the pre-clinical ones I find interesting: - proof of concept, - pre-clinical ready for phase 1 funding, - techniques that are not, at least at the moment, used for prostate cancer but for other cancers - CRISPR advancements and stuff like that (mostly

I am following SOC treatment here in Canada. I have come to the point where I am in serious pain due to the metastatic disease in and around my lower back.

The study included the data from thirteen RCTs (16 292 patients). For mHSPC, ADT + docetaxel + darolutamide demonstrates less cardiotoxicity than ADT + decetaxel + abiraterone acetate + prednisone due to a lower risk of hypertension and arrhythmias from decreased mineralocorticoid excess. In addition

Hello Friends, I would greatly appreciate your insights and guidance as I navigate the next steps in my treatment journey with mCRPC.

The doctor then prescribed Xtandi and that also failed. He then tried a clinical trial drug (I don't know the name of that) along with chemotherapy

Tomorrow I am scheduled to get my 18th injection of Degarelix. Despite the monthly frequency, I’m much happier with the SE’s from Degarelix than from Lupron or Eligard. A few months back I pointed out the ironic brand name Firmagon to my nurses, and now they have to joke about the name at every implant

I have been on Orgovyx and Xtandi since May. I am doing fairly well. PSA at 0.05 Testosterone at 27 Wanted advice if the testosterone number is alright or should it be lower. I have read some posts on the board that lower testosterone levels increase overall survival ? Does anyone have any

Diagnosed in August this year with 4+3 and 3+4 PC. However Last PSA was 4.7. Trying to decide on treatment options. I am in the Boston area and have access to Cyberknife, Ethos Varian, or Retzius Prosectomy. 72 years old. I would prefer SBRT but without ADT as I had polio at 1 years old. My muscle

My recent scan, posted here, shows most of the PC gone or smaller. The drugs are very hard on me. My question is should I stop using the ADT drugs
