Mechanism for Provenge suggested
That is to say that
Provenge
does not seem to have an effect on the activity of the Androgen Receptor as reflected by PSA.

what is the difference between car-t and provenge?
Provenge
is 3x, and car-t is 1x (i believe). $100k vs $400k but i didnt mean that.

Hair Color and Provenge
Since I've had
Provenge
my hair color has darkened. I saw this article: http://www.iflscience.com/health-and-medicine/immunotherapy-drugs-appear-restore-hyair-color-patients/ Even though the study was using different immuotheraphy drugs, it got me wondering. Anyone else having this effect?

Gleason 9 (5+4) 10+ years ago - widely metastatic cancer and running out of options!
So, with increasingly poor physical reactions to Xtandi, Zytiga, and Taxotere, what's left other than
Provenge
? I respect his desire to stop active treatment because I know what his life is like.

Favorable Casodex withdrawal
Needless to say, I'm going ride my favorable Casodex withdrawal as long as I can before I start
Provenge
. My oncologist remarked to me that some men have a favorable withdrawal response that last up to a year.

Oncologist told my Stepdad there is nothing else he can do for him.
I wonder if something like
Provenge
would be worth a shot. He wants to get a second opinion. Has anyone else been in the same situation. It's very sad. He's been told to get his affairs in order so we've we're signing power of attorney papers today. I appreciate any help.

Port in chest for Provenge?
I know this sounds absurd but I'm ready to cancel my
provenge
treatment. This port issue has my stress level to an all time high. How many of you went through
Provenge
treatment and had the veins in your arms used?

Just a thought
If blood types could be matched why couldn't you remove enough immune cells, on the order of say the
provenge
model and then replicate and infuse them into patient B.

Provenge
? Is their a large co-pay, etc. Thank you everyone.

Running out of treatment options? Thoughts?
I am looking into a clinical trial at MD Anderson - Ipilimumab and Nivolumab combination .My current oncologist at Sloan ( Susan Slovin) does not think the current immunotherapy on the markets (
provenge
) would be effective for me.

Confused why one must continue Lupron since it shows it's not working?
My question is after about 15 months on lupron injections monthly his PSA started to rise so the doctor suggested we do
Provenge
and we did that now I'm told his PSA is still rising so the doctor said he will put him on xgeva or xtandi along with the lupron injections.
