When to introduce ADT after RP failure
I'm progressing well on Triplet Therapy coming up 12 months after Chemo and comparing myself to my brothers situation. He doesn't belong on this advanced prostate group but I hope his cancer does not advance to the point that he does! [i]Diagnoses[/i] [i]Biochemical failure following radical prostatectomy

Help please!! Rucaparib to Letrozole.
Hi everyone. Hope all you warriors are doing well. I wondered if any of you have any words of wisdom for us? My mum was diagnosed in May 2019, had chemo and debulking surgery, which worked amazingly well. Sadly, reoccurred within 10months of being NED. Again, had Chemo and secondary debulking. Mum

My options as far as he is concerned are come off hrt or stay on it and I'll have to start taking
chemotherapy
tablets. Would be really interested in others opinions or similar stories. Many thanks Heidi

Back Pain after Chemo?
My wife recently started IV Carboplatin and she’s experienced excruciating lower back and hip pain for the first few days after her treatment (AUC6 dosing, once every 3 weeks). She has numerous pelvic metastases as well as chronic stenosis in her lower back. We’re struggling to try to determine whether

Is there an "oligometastatic state" for prostate cancer (but not in breast cancer or lung cancer)?
All were given systemic therapy (90% had both immunotherapy +
chemotherapy
). 81 were treated with "consolidative therapy" radiation/surgery to the lung and all metastatic sites followed by systemic therapy. After 2 years of follow-up: • Overall survival was the same in both groups.

Triplet Regimen vs Clinical Trial (Pluvicto)
The other treatment options is a triplet regimen, which will include the Lupron + anti-androgen +
chemotherapy
(docetaxel). I am 64 and otherwise in good physical shape. I would like to treat this as aggressively as we can, but I’m not sure what is the right choice in this case.

Pluvicto side effects…
… are kicking my butt. I have my third round next week. I’m more fatigued than with chemo, bone pain, can’t eat, constipation — all the stuff. I’m even more concerned now because I was Rx-ed oxycodone and have increasingly been turning to that for temporary physical relief. I’m starting to think maybe

Small Cell Carcinoma Prostate Cancer Help
He has been treated with
chemotherapy
for the last 4 months and his second scan came back with mixed results. His oncologist at Weil has said that chemo is not working and he should consider other alternatives. We are trying to see Dr. Beltran at Dana Farber and Dr. Matthew at Tufts.

UPDATE on Abdominal distension.
Some may remember my post a few days ago. I was experiencing some abdominal distension, which I suspected maybe ascites. However, my GP assured me there was no ascites and I probably had diverticulitis.I took the advice of the kind ladies who responded to me. I was admitted to hospital yesterday with

Does having CLL really make you 3 times more likely to get (another) cancer, and does CLL treatment add to the risk? - Part 1
• Excess cases of acute myeloid leukemia (AML) seem to be wholly driven by myelodysplasia (MDS) following
chemotherapy
(Fig 4), although before 2003 and in patients over the age of 70 this chain of events is absent (Fig 2). •
Chemotherapy
also increases the risk of skin cancers (Fig 4).

CA125 plus MRI = trouble (despite contrary advice)
Hi All, this is from the Uk - good old NHS! My positivity is slipping! No, I WILL keep a PMA😌 I’m off on holiday soon 😁 but…. The story so far is too long - briefly, 4th line finished end of May. Just got blood results and CA125 has jumped from 23 to 293! Now, the midpoint CT scan showed partial

knee Replacement
Has anyone with MBC gone off their chemo drug ( for me Ibrance) for a month for reasons to strengthen their immune system to prep for surgery? I desperately need knee replacement. My oncologist just completed a body and chest scans and I remain stable as I have for 2 years. I have been given the go

What after Trodelvy?
I was wondering if anyone came back to ormonal treatments or traditional chemo after Trodelvy failed, and had still good results. They say this treatment is the best after CDK4/6 fail for HR+ mbc and there’s liver involvement, but I was wondering if undergoing such a strong therapy could make cancer
