Dad 2nd BCR. Advice needed...
After a very late salvage radiation + 1 year Lupron. He has been off ADT for 1 year when PSA began to rise again. From 0.01 to 0.03 in less than 2 months then 0.05 after another 3 months. Is this indicative of an aggressive progression and metastasis? The oncologist said that the doubling time is not

Psma-pet scan results
PCa Warriors: I am on Active Surveillance(AS )with one core GL6 at 10%. I am part of a clinical trial that uses PSMA-pet scan to track progression. I guess the goal is to catch progression early and maybe avoid biopsies. The results are given below. Two things grabbed my attention from the report.

Are bone and CT scans required quarterly if PSA and testosterone are basically zero and no symptoms?
I have stage IV prostate cancer with a spot on my lung being the only known spread of my cancer. After my chemo regimen, my CT and bone scans have been clean for a year now. And my blood work is perfect at the moment. I am on Zytiga and getting a Lupron shot quarterly. My doc still wants

Is it normal to have high PSMA & lesions in MRI after 2 months of SBRT to spine mets, with PSA dropping on Enza that seems to be working?
I had 4 oligomets in the spine, stable since a PET PSMA in November 2023 when I started Enzalutamide. Then treated with SBRT in march 2024.After 2 months, in May, a new PET CT PSMA shows SuvMax of 60 similar to 70 before the SBRT, and an MRI report says there are tumor lesions they same as in the MRI

Lupron + abi/pred 9 months and PSA<.04 throughout - - consider dropping abi and monitor it?
I am a recurrence case and PSA went to 2.2 last year; multiple possible sites. After 9 months in now, PSA <.04 and TT <10 the whole time. Hopkins MO says he would not risk stopping the abi despite the immeasurable PSA whereas Moffitt MO says he would stop the abi since it "seems" not so needed and

is this what CR looks like?
Starting Nov 20 last year, I began a relugolix on-cycle. Here’s the PSA readings from that point: Nov 20 : 3.10 Jan 8: 0.31 Feb 27: 0.13 Apr 15: 0.08 So up to this point, the PSA is dropping nicely, as it always has with on-cycles; and as I would expect, since I’ve been a strong responder

Hi All, My husband, Pat (61) was diagnosed in late February with low grade metastatic PC. Gleason 9 grade 5. PSA 32. In a few small pelvic lymph nodes and a couple pelvic lesions. No other spread. PSMA pet scan detected this. We are working with a team and when we were told his diagnosis from his

Initial Phase 1 Data on MB-105 for Patients with PSCA-positive Castration Resistant Prostate Cancer
From what I understand PSCA is highly expressed in prostate cancer cells but also in other kinds of cancer and also in other tissues (in small amounts), and its production increases as the disease progresses, making it a better target for later stages (but this is my speculation!). What is important

PET Scan Results 030424
New PSMA avid sclerotic lesions in the left inferior pubic ramus, and bilateral symphysis pubis. Additional new small foci in the left acetabulum and supra-acetabular region. Index focus in the left symphysis pubis with a maximum SUV 20.4. RO will radiate but suggests change from Zytiga to Xtandi.

I am currently on 1000mg aberaterone and 5mg steroid daily. Lupron every six months. Diagnosed in January 2024. Gleson 4+5=9. Metastatic. L2 and T2 bones mets treated with EBRT. PSA was 466 in February when I started triplet therapy. Have had a great response with PSA now at <.10. Tried docetaxel chemo

Jevtana and carboplatin
I have done 10 rounds of Docetaxol, had a PSMA scan which showed progression in a lymph node ( I only have lymph node disease no bone or organ mets.) I started Jevtana and carboplatin about 9 weeks ago. I have what is described as" PSA surge". When I started my psa was 4.4 now 8.3. Has anyone else

Can Fenbendazole be taken along with Orgovyx?
My husband has just been diagnosed with advanced prostate cancer. The doctor plans to do a scan to see if it has spread and then put him on Orgovyx. I am concerned about side effects (he is 86) and was hoping fenbendazole could be used at the same time to help things along. Does anyone have experience

Low Testosterone reduces Survival by a huge amount.
This plot compares prostate cancer specific mortality probability versus time for two different levels of testosterone: Low and Normal. The low testosterone has a median value of 162 ng/dL [120-236] and the average normal T = 680 ng/dL. The cohort is 58 men with unfavorable intermediate risk who underwent

Help! Anyone here try zytiga holidays. Like one week off a month. Or weekends off?
Help! Anyone here try zytiga holidays for 2-7 days every so often? Also, any recommended medications recommended to stop these hot flashes. I only take the 250mg because I get the same affect. With 1000 mg I have heart problems.Thanks4673
