At a crossroads
Greetings All, I have recently been scanned and increased Mets in bones and a new small spot in my liver have been found, eliminating me from my Phase Ib clinical trial that had worked from November 2021. My earlier first line of treatment, Ibrance Fulvestrant failed after about 8 months. I am now

Fasting Insulin.
No mention of PCa, but the article states that: "Insulin has direct and indirect effects on cancer cell progression, proliferation, and
metastasis
." IMO this is particularly true for PCa, which is the only cancer where risk falls with the failure of beta cell insulin production. -Patrick

Unknown Territory!😔
About 18months on Ibrance/Letrozole then progression to Liver. Been on Verzenio now for a short period thus far and Oncologist wants to do 9 Rounds/Weeks of IV Chemo. Has anyone had a similar experience? After the 9weeks possibly back on Verzenio or on Xeolda. Diagnosed De Novo so this will be first

very good apt with onc
Yesterday I saw my onc, after having a scan last week and blood work shortly before seeing her. Stable cancer! Great news! Earlier this year she'd found that my cancer cells had become triple negative, after 19 years with E+ and great results with anti-estrogen treatment. SShe put me on Xeloda and

Oligometastatic prostate cancer: Reality or figment of imagination?
Nevertheless, the appropriateness of
metastasis
‐directed therapy within the context of tumor‐related molecular factors and clinical variables like comorbidities is a separate issue that remains relatively less well answered.

What's next after Xeloda?
Hi all, just got disappointing CT scan results showing strong progression after only 7 months on Xeloda. I've messaged my oncologist to find out what the next options may be so I can research them before our appointment. Would love to hear from anyone who has gone to the next step after Xeloda - what

Afinitor/Everolimus and Tamoxifen is next :(
Hi everyone - it's time for me to change treatment again. Well my time on the Hope trial was pretty short-lived (December to June with pretty much progression showing for 1/2 that time) and now officially over. I'm ok with ending the trial because the travel out of State, and insurance issues were becoming

Current advances of liquid biopsies in prostate cancer: Molecular biomarkers, Cell/Molecular Therapy Oncolytics, 09/21/23
Conversely, among PCa diagnoses, approximately a third of the GS of PCa biopsies are inaccurate and underestimate the score, followed by
metastasis
within 5 years, which challenges clinical diagnosis and threatens patients’ lives.

Lynparza after Enhertu?
Question about PET scan results. This is my 2nd PET on Enhertu for metastatic breast cancer with great results after the 1st scan. I just received my results from this morning and all organs and liver look clean but there has been some low SUV level skeletal progression. I have a meeting with my oncologist

Intermediate favorable vs. unfavorable Gleason 7 acc.to 2 doctors + CLEAN PSMA, do we need third opinion +where? (Green Bay/Milwaukee areas)
We've been reading that PSMA's are the last word in
metastasis
!!! So today my husband went back to original urologist for another cystoscopy and to discuss treatment options for his urinary retention as many things we have read/seen indicate it is absolutely fine to treat the BPH first.

Treatment - radiation vs. surgery
In the ProtectT study, my understanding at 10 years, cure rates were not different than surgery and at 15 years there was no difference in
metastasis
. If success rates are the same, then it comes down to adverse effects.

the previously known sites of PSAM avid osseous metstasis have increased in size and intensity of PSMA uptake.
