Update on AMG 509 immunotherapy
I get transfusions every Thursday. I have been tolerating treatment quite well and feel good. I drove an hour and played 18 holes of golf last Friday, one day after treatment. It was a bit risky as I have experienced muscle cramping for 24-48 hours from the beginning. That is less of an issue each week

Low Testosterone Could Be Bad News in COVID-19 — In small study, men with low levels were more likely to have severe illness - MedPage Today
One more study to complicate and confuse PCa patients as they deal with treatment options and their effects. And while this study makes no mention of PCa patients (and likely excluded them from the sudy group), it still points to a possible COVID risk issue for patient on ADT. It even stands in contrast

Calling UK CLLers - Is government about to abandon support for protective monoclonal antibodies?
There is ample evidence now that many CLL patients don't respond well to vaccination against the SARS-COV2 virus. At least, a sizeable fraction don't develop measurable antibodies. From big pharma's point of view, therefore, we are a gap in the market for protection against Covid, and a handful of

Hello, We are working with a national newspaper to highlight the value and power of support networks for people living with advanced ovarian cancer (stage 3 or 4). Their journalist would like to speak with someone who has used an Ovacome support network (forum or support group) and learned new information

Bacillus coagulans (I use MTCC 5856 Lactospore®) probiotic for IBS related symptoms, my latest, but not last, trial (stopped).
I've read some info on Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 probiotic and the results look promising. More info on Bacillus coagulans MTCC 5856 can be found on the website of US national library of Medicine / National Institutes of Health https://pubmed.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/?term=MTCC+5856&sort=date&size=20 Probiotic

Combination Treatments for Hormone Sensitive PC (mHSPC): Trusting a Meta-Analysis
Here, below, is a meta-analysis: a systematic review and analysis combining a number of prospective randomized clinical trials. This one is looking at which treatment, when added to standard ADT, produces the best results (overall and progression free survival) for metastatic hormone sensitive disease

Have any of you participated in a very small (phase 1) clinical trial in Texas?
Researchers at the University of Texas MD Anderson Cancer Center led the development of a GLS1 inhibitor that is now showing in patients with a variety of solid tumor types. Only 20 patients from the USA participated and 60% of them responded well to this attempt. I hope that further trials will be continued

Help with costs of clinical trial
Does anyone have advice for paying for flights/hotels? My dad is doing a clinical trial at Weil Cornell but lives in MO and will have 15ish trips so it will really rack up. Thanks in advance. PS we looked at angel flights but thats not a good option for them due to dad being in a scooter.

My Personal "trial" of Cyclic Testosterone Therapy
I previously posted about my proposed personal experimental "trial" of high dose cyclic testosterone therapy for my severe hypogonadism (testosterone deficiency syndrome from ADT). Now I have completed both parts of the initial cycle. Note that this is NOT a formal clinical trial. It is a personal experiment

Clinical trials are an important part of the treatment of blood cancers, and for some people can offer access to new treatments that aren’t available routinely. Some people may be invited to participate in a clinical trial by their healthcare team, and some may like to raise the question of suitability
