Radical Prostatectomy vs External Beam Radiation Therapy for High-Grade, Clinically Localized Prostate Cancer
TAKE-HOME MESSAGE This retrospective study sought to emulate a randomized trial comparing outcomes between prostatectomy and radiation therapy for high-grade (Gleason score 8–10), clinically localized prostate cancer. The data were extracted from the National Cancer Database (2006–2015) and propensity

Palliative radiotherapy

Gentle steps to next HM
3 months ago I was happily training for the HM which came to an end on 12th March with a 13km run. In early February I attended my routine mammogram and a week later got the call back for further investigation. For the next few weeks various investigations confirmed that I had breast cancer. A bit

Positive Progress
So I've just had my 1st Cancerversary, in that I was diagnosed with stage 3b lung cancer on the 12th May last year, I thought i'd share a couple of things i've learnt for the benefit of someone who may be in the same position I was a year ago. Point 1: If you have surgery don't assume you'll be out running

Implications of PSMA PET Imaging for Prostate Cancer Presentation & Discussion - Oliver Sartor, and FDA approves F18 DCFPyl
Greetings FPC folks, First, a UroToday presentation with Drs Oliver Sartor, Neal Shore, Alicia Morgans, and Phillip Koo--RO at MD Anderson. This presentation goes into how the newer scans are "10-100X better than traditional scans". They go on to discuss OSPREY trial and the ORIOLE trial, and treatment

Off label use of Mekinist (Trametinib)
I came across this in chapter 43 of the Dr Mark Sholz book The Key to Prostate Cancer. It's only anecdotal evidence of course. Anybody considering taking it, should do it with agreement of their MO. Mekinist is a Mek inhibitor and used to treat melanoma, thyroid cancer and non small lung cancer. Patient

Sensitive to radiation
I began my radiotherapy (prostate plus lower abdomen lymph nodes) on Tuesday. 5 hours after the treatment I became nauseous so the following day they gave me pills that help with that. Yesterday I started having urinary problems such as if I hold my urine like I need to during therapy, then when I try

Anyone Have Blood Clots Following Chemo?
I have just been diagnosed with nearly a foot-long blood clot in my right leg. An ultrasound indicates the clot's in a smaller vein near the surface of the skin, as opposed to a deep vein. But it is raising concern of my doctor as it's apparently close to a junction with a larger vein. It is extremely

Leg Pain
Hi everyone, just a question with regards to pain that my old man is feeling at the moment. It started round about the time he started radiotherapy on his Prostate. They decided to do an MRI and although this chucked up a couple more lesions than what was already known, he was cleared for spinal compression

Suspicious Pelvic Lymph Nodes. Next Action?
I have just got back to the UK from the Netherlands where I went to Radboud University Medical Centre to have a Combidex Nano MRI scan and a PSMA Pet scan. Travel authorisation was a nightmare due to a combination of Brexit and Covid 19 but that is another story which I may post on later. But I had great

Hydrogen peroxide-producing drug boosts cancer-killing effect of radiotherapy.
A small drug molecule that appears to protect normal tissue from the damaging effects of radiation, may simultaneously be able to boost the cancer-killing effect of radiation therapy, according to a new study led by scientists at University of Iowa, University of Texas Southwestern Medical Center, and

Cannot take antioxidants during radiotherapy
My first run on Lupron a year ago had been debilitating making it very difficult for me to do my work as a software developer. I ended up going off Lupron following that first shot. In January of this year, I went back on Lupron but I found ways to fight the fatigue and brain fog with a combination

Hyperthermia Treatment
Hi, I have a small mass at the base of my throat and it is causing a lot of discomfort. I am unable to use radiation therapy as the area has been previously treated. It has been suggested I try localised hyperthermia treatment. Have any of you tried this treatment method and if so what are your thoughts
