Update on Prostate Cancer Vaccines that I follow... another year is gone...
Greetings FPC forum, It has been another year... and I would love to have better news... there is a new vaccine candidate to monitor, but the reality is that the system takes time... The system needs a revision in my opinion, but I digress... As I reviewed the last time, the vaccine trial for RhoVac's

Liver detox after chemo?
I am starting Taxotere next week and received some advice from a friend fighting serious colon cancer. He told me how he detoxed his liver after each cycle. He used TUDCA Bile salts and PectaSol from ECONugenics Company. https://econugenics.com/collections/pectasol?Wickedsource=Microsoft&Wickedid

Best genetic mutation test?
My husband’s RO ordered the Invitae genetic saliva test, and we’ve received results showing he does not have genetic mutations on the genes they tested (84 genes I think). The problem is I don’t see some important mutations on their test, such as CDK12 or others. What is the “best” or most comprehensive

cancer marker 15-3
My moms marker went up from 163 to 332 . She started her second line treatment about 7 weeks ago after being on Ibrance and Femara for around 2 and half years. She is now on faslodex and anfintor. Does this mean its not working ? And if it’s not will they change both meds or just one of them? Thank

Update - friend with bronchogenic adenocarcinoma
Hello all, Thanks again for your replies to my original post as a newbie for a friend. She saw her rad/onc today and the PET results are encouraging! No cancer showed up outside the lungs. He recommends she see a thoracic surgeon for her 5 cm mass (golf-tennis ball size) to see if she is a candidate

looking for reassurance or advice
Hello warriors, After exactly 2 years of happily dropping PSA numbers on triplet therapy, my husbands PSA went up this month from .91. To .94 I know MO will say to wait for 3 months of rising PSA before we should panic, but that’s easy for him to say… looking for reassurance as we wait for next months

interesting Xeloda trial
Hi friends, I listened to a presentation summarizing reports from ASCO 2023 related to MBC, and what really interested me was that for Xeloda, a fixed dose taken one week on/one week off, produced as good results as current standard of care with fewer side effects. Also: cream form of Voltaren/diclofenac

Clinical Trial Considerations??
I’ve been presented with a clinical trial and I’m open to feedback. Background: I’m 71 and in pretty good health. I was diagnosed with two Gleason 6 lesions in late 2021 and went on AS. At that point, PSA was in the low 4’s. Earlier this year, PSA rose to 6.7. MRI and guided biopsy uncovered one Gleason
