chemo re challenge
hi there my father is about to start another cycle of carboplatin and etoposide this week. He had good response to this 5 years ago- much better than docetaxel or jevtana. I’m wondering your thoughts about whether this could be effective again.. it has been 5 years but has other treatments and progression

INR/FIBRINOGEN
Can someone please tell me if anything else can affect INR or FIBRINOGEN levels, last year my INR was 1 on the ratio and is now 1.1 does this mean the liver is getting worse or can that figure change, it is literally just on the last part of normal now, also my FIBRINOGEN is almost double what it should

Curious what you think?
Background: I have to take my wife for all her appointments - doctors, hair, etc. Her MO who treats her blood cancer seemed like a good doctor but I know nothing about blood cancer. So I went to her with my records for a consult with the idea it would be easier and less hassle if we could get appointments

Post Kasai_ biliary atresia
My son is 6 months last week, he had biliary atresia and they did the kasai at 5 weeks, the jaundice is still there, how long does it take to clear? Also he was diagnosed with Cirrhosis of the liver. We start solids this week. The stool has changed to yellow now but sometimes it's oily. We were recommended

PSA rising
Two months ago, husband’s PSA was .23, last month .20, yesterday .27. MO wants to watch and see what it is next month. Husband diagnosed 9/23, finished 6 rounds chemo on 2/21, is on Zytiga and Orgovyx currently. Concerned about the rise in PSA, would like input. Thank you.

Tumor Lysis Syndrome
Anyone have this happen after a treatment? I am well aware of all the symptoms and events but was wondering if anyone experienced this while getting treatments. My potassium level had gone from 5.4 to 7.0 after treatment a week beforehand and was told by the Oncologist to get to the ER ASAP. ER tested

Rise in PSA and extra Eligard Injection
My psa has risen from <0.01 in Feb to 0.04 in April to 0.27 in July then 0.41 this week. I had a CT and full body scan on Tuesday, which according to my MO, who I saw today, showed no ‘hotspots’. Because my PCa metastasised to 4 places in 2016 when first diagnosed, I had radiation to the prostate followed

ARPIs May Improve Survival in Some With Prostate Cancer

Emerging cancer drugs (IDO1 inhibitors) might also treat early-stage Alzheimer's disease [and maybe Parkinson's disease dementia].
"The therapies that are currently available are working to remove peptides that are likely the result of a bigger issue we can target before those peptides can start forming plaques. We're demonstrating that by targeting the brain's metabolism, we can not only slow, but reverse the progression of this

Can psa fluctuate while on adt?
My husband has been on Eligard and Xtandi since 2021. He’d been undetectable until this past November when his psa rose to 0.004, detectable. But then he became undetectable once more until yesterday’s psa test when it became detectable again. His oncologist switched his Xtandi to another similar med
