Hey guys. Glad to find this group. 81 years old- Diagnosed 7 years ago with a Gleason 9 The Onc's finally scared me into having a radical but I refused to let them take my nerves. They told me I would be gone in 5 yrs. In retrospect wish I hadn't had the radical. Info and options were very hard to come

Choice of CLL Treatment
HI all, I’m 53 and after 5 years I’m nearing the end of W&W and my oncologist is suggesting I start treatment due to expanding nodes in my neck. He’s offered two types of treatment, (1) Ventickax & Obinutuzumb, which as I understand is basically chemo plus drugs for a year that will hopefully put the

Update on trametinib (Mekinist) for low grade serous ovarian cancer
This is for people who have received platinum-based
chemotherapy
previously and have not had treatment with a MEK-inhibitor in the past. Trametinib is a targeted therapy which blocks a protein that helps cancer cells grow.

History Question for Tall Allen or others.
I am interested in what happened to the Eclipse Clinical Trial of a few years back? I find several old calls for patients to sign up. They say it is set up as a Lu177-PSMA-I&T vs. Lupron (ADT) Trial. Sounds like good science to me but a Political Mine Field to get US FDA approval. I am surprised they

Radiation
I had the standard IMRT for my pca back in 2013. I was told it was a lifetime dose. Is that true with the newer forms of radiation treatment? I am faced with starting a six dose regimen of taxotere now since ADT does not seem to be working according to PSMA scans. My psa remains at 1.8 even though the

PSA doubled 3 months after chemo - normal or a concern?
I don’t see Dr Dorff until next week, but had labs drawn today. I’m prepping any questions I might have for the appointment. My PSA has more than doubled in 3 months from 0.014 to 0.039. Testosterone at time of both tests was <7. At these low levels, is that doubling in 3 months a concern? I’m

Update: Carbo/Etoposide for Dad’s Liver Mets
My dad has his 6th round of Carbo/Etoposide next week. The last 2 rounds have been very difficult on my dad. We thought he was lucky in the beginning as the side effects were manageable and attributed it to my dad being young and previously very active. It’s definitely true that chemo is cumulative.

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.
