Cancer takes another brave man
My wonderful husband passed away yesterday after fighting the beast for 15 years. Gleason 8 all but one core positive. He was so strong tried so hard, 2 clinical trials radiation, Zytiga, Xofigo, lupron for the entire time. Finally at age 65 his body could take no more, he lost over 40 pounds, no energy

Autovaccination seems a hot topic lately: Mt. Sinai autovaccination technique to turn cold prostate cancer hot (Phase 1)
ok, I am exposing myself to j-o-h-n in more than one way with that title... This is for regional leagues (locally advanced PCa), while we are the NFL of prostate cancer here, but the fact that a cold cancer was turned hot is very promising as it has always been the main limit of immuno therapies applied

Are endocrinologists of any help after ADT?
After ADT, my MO told me that handling things like Prolia management won't be in her bailiwick. I didn't ask about post-ADT SE's and recovery from same. Hot flashes, low T, BMD loss, and last not least sarcopenia. What is the community's experience with how post-treatment SE's are best handled? Are

Podcast Episode with Abraham Morgentaler, MD about Testosterone and Prostate Cancer
This great podcast, "You are not broken," is by a female urologist, Dr. Kelly Casperson. She often explores misconceptions about hormones.

Robotic wedge lung resection
During my pet scan a lung shadow was reported. Biopsy failed to get tissue but Drs. do not think it is from the stage 2/3 prostate cancer. They recommend a wedge resection via a daVinci mechanism to remove it. I'd like to hear from someone who has had that surgery but since it may be tangential to this

Zytiga vs Nubeqa for Triple Therapy
Hi, I've recently received a diagnosis of Stage 4 prostate cancer, which is high volume and hormone-sensitive. I've consulted with 3 oncologist and all recommend triple therapy: Lupron alongside 6 rounds of Docetaxel, plus an ARPI. While two oncologists recommend Nubeqa, one strongly advocates for Zytiga

Why don't doctors prescribe Dutasteride more often?
I get this question from a lot of men that have prostate cancer. Although the black label warning is a concern to some doctors, and has been discussed here in previous posts, I think the main reason is simply that most doctors don't know about it. Here is the single best paper reviewing the three major

PSMA Scans and False Positives
So I saw my MO yesterday to review my ongoing treatment of Xtandi and Lupron. Been 3 months so far with no real side effects except hot flashes. My PSMA scan showed prostate and one met to sacrum. Prostate treated with 28 rounds of EBRT. MO says since sacrum is so close to prostrate it might have

Reaction to docetaxel twice now.
second cycle of docetaxel and the same reaction. Pelvic pain, flushing, muzzy head and head ache. Great response from the team again and feeling better pretty quickly. Last time they tried again and it went through okay. Had meds to mitigate but not prevented a reaction. They aren’t go to try the infusion

Lutetium at earlier stage, clinical trial is enrolling
The second trial provides men with metastatic prostate cancer access to prostate-specific membrane antigen (PSMA)-targeted therapy prior to chemotherapy. Currently, PSMA-targeted therapy is only available after chemotherapy. However, phase III clinical trials have shown that PSMA-targeted therapies are

My Prostate Cancer Journey
It has been a year since I was diagnosed with prostate cancer, and it has been quite a difficult journey. However, I have been incredibly fortunate to have the love and support of my wife and family every step of the way. Their presence has been a source of immense emotional comfort and personal care

Platelets Dropping
Is this “normal” or any advice? Undergoing radiation since March, have 22 sessions done, 6 to go. Started Casodex in December to prepare to start Eligard in January. Radiation started in March. My platelets have been dropping. MO said could be due to Lupron and/or radiation. IMRT targets Gleason 9

I need urgent help for my uncle.
My uncle who resides in France and is a holder of a French citizenship, has been diagnosed with terminal prostatic cancer. He had treated this condition in the past but it ultimately came back, but this time around doctors (including a specialist in Marseille) made him know that his condition was incurable

chemo
has anyone who failed xtandi and zytiga have good outcome with chemo- does it completely eliminate the cancer or do you still have to take things after - how does it work when it stops - also can you take it in smaller doses?

Satisfaction with AUS after Radiation
If you have had an AUS implanted after receiving radiation are you satisfied with your decision and has it improved your quality of life? Or do you regret having an AUS implanted and if so why? I have had both a prostatectomy and salvage radiation (see profile). I regained continence after the prostatectomy
