anone Have Success With Provenge?
Not much talk about the immune therapy treatment. Understand it isn't approved for early use but that might be the best time to administer?

Needing Advice Please- Didn’t get the results I wanted
.- What next- Chemo,
Provenge
and in what order? Is a bone biopsy helpful? My nuclear medicine doctor also offered Ac225 or proton therapy to the bone or prostate gland. Feeling really desperate unfortunately….

Entering a New Stage Moving to Provenge
I saw my MO last week, he wants to put me on
Provenge
. My question to the group: What can I expect with
Provenge
? Especially what side effects others have encountered. Also, I do have 89 tabs of Erleada left. If anyone can use them, please send me a message.

Rising PSA after Hormone Resistance
He had done
Provenge
and is half way thru Xofigo infusions. They said PSA really can’t tell us anything now, but they still test it. It has gone from 11.27 in June to 60 this week. And now suddenly his oncologist wants to see him. My question: Does PSA mean anything at this point?

BAT question. A little worried about results.
I had immunotherapy (
Provenge
) which didn’t really do much and my PSA remained 14. My MO recommended adding Orgovyx to the Nubeqa and PSA went down to 6. I hate the sarcopenia and weakness and proposed trying BAT. My MO has had me stop Nubeqa for 4 weeks but stay on Orgovyx.

provenge in the metastatic hormone sensitive PCa patient
Provenge
has been flagged to me on more than one occasion now so thanks to those. I was wondering if anyone could point to clinical trials in its use for the metastatic hormone sensitive APCa patient such as me.

Does monoclonal antibody infusion for cv19 prevent us from eligibility for cutting edge immunotherapy for prostate cancer?
An oncologist told me last week that if you get
provenge
that might make you ineligible for trials in the future related to newer Treatments for immunotherapy. Would monoclonal antibody infusion for CV 19 make you an eligible as well?

2 yr since DX
so here I am two years later, looking at starting
Provenge
Oct 31, because ADT and chemo (and radiation to the prostate as part of a clinical trial) didn't keep the PSA down very long. those treatments got me to undetectable, but i was only there for a year. so, still worried that my 10 year old won't

Post Provenge, what should I do now
I completed
Provenge
in October, my last psa was on November 5 it was 4.5--I was already aware that
Provenge
does not lower psa, it only awakes sleeping white blood cells to fight the cancer.

Dad has brain cancer, heart issues, and now PSA has increased. Concerned about medication complications..
That worked for five years until his PSA started increasing again and he was able to receive a two of three rounds of
Provenge
immunotherapy (the last round was cancelled due to Covid just starting in March 2020). He started Xtandi shortly after.

update on state 4 met
Then
Provenge
. Just finished but no noticeable results. My dad wants to try zytiga again with prednisone because he’s having terrible side effects with xandi and doesn’t want to do chemo right now. Also, Testing for the brac to see if he can take different medication in that realm.

Dendritic Cell Therapy
Provenge
seems to be the FDA approved vaccine but , I believe Medicare won't pay for it unless you have become castrate resistant. Out of pocket,I understand it costs around 150,000. My belief is why damage my immune system with maximum ADT and THEN try to build it up again.
