PSA after restarting ADT
When I started Lupron +
Casodex
in November 2018 my PSA was 4.48, which dropped to 0.17 in just three months. This time, why the rate of PSA drop is much slower? During ADT break my PSA increased rapidly from 0.07 to 0.453 while T increased to 147 over a period of 9 months.

Post SRT + ADT PSA
Salvage RT to prostate bed and combined ADT (
casodex
and GnRH) started at this level (0.16). RT was from August-October and ADT just finished a week ago. Three months in (around October) his PSA was 0.01. Now, a week off ADT and three months out from SRT, his PSA is 0.16 again. What does this mean?

I was diagnosed MBC de Novo last year with mets to bones. The lesions seemed to recede and disappear with Ibrance/Letrozole combi over six months, but a recent

Lupron withdrawals, is it a thing?
I was dx in Dec 2019 with Stage IV APCa and put straight on ADT (
Casodex
and Eligard). Chemo soon followed and concluded with Radio in October last year, last PSA 0.01 and we are all happy about that.

Great news, I can stop taking Lupron
I went straight on ADT (daily 50mg
Casodex
and 3 mth Eligard) commenced Chemotherapy (Docetaxel) in late Jan 20 and stopped taking Tamsulosin. I had 9 chemo shots but that wasn't enough, so I had a TURBT and 20 VMAT Radiation session to finish the job.

How did you find out your breast cancer had metastasized?
I discovered a lump in my right breast in Jan 2014, had a mastectomy and did not need any other treatment. In June of 2019, I felt a small lump on my head. It did not go away, so I went to my dermatologist. She took one look and said that is metastatic breast cancer. I have been on Faslodex ever since

Nubeqa anyone?
I've been on Lupron for years with add-ons of
Casodex
, Xtandi and Zytiga. Presently on Zytiga (1000 mgs daily). Along the way I have had Brachi, Prevenge and some blind clinical trials. Here is my question: my MOC is thinking of stopping Zytiga and switching me to Nubeqa.

letrozle
My oncologist prescribed Letrozle for me instead of faslodex and it says it causes hair loss . I don't need to lose more hair. Is there something else out there. Helena

Casodex/Bicalutamide or MDV3100/Enzalutamide can lead to promotion rather than suppression of Prostate Cancer Metastasis
Just came across this study that seems like quite an important finding for those of us who might be taking or have taken
Casodex
/Bicalutamide or enzalutamide.

CoC (Care Oncology Protocol) and your Oncologist

Diagnosed stage IV aged 50, still going 8 years later :)
Started ADT immediately (zoladex and
casodex
). Urologist sent me to a radiation oncologist, as he said surgery would be pointless. In 2013 I did radiation to prostate and two tum ours on my spine. PSA stayed 0.01 for a year so stopped ADT.

Would it work when we go back to the old treatment again? Your input would be appreciated.
For example, Lupron and
Casodex
(frontline) were used at first diagnosis. After all other treatments like zytiga, xstandi, etc. are castration-resistant, would it work when go back to lupron and
casodex
again? Thanks.
