mHSPCa with undetectable PSA - chemo-only?

PSA
metastatic disease.

PSMA scan
My
PSA
was .027. I hope this knocks it out. I am also contemplating ADT but unsure which would work first or second generation.

Pet Scan = "disease not detected"
7 weeks of radiation,
PSA
drops and holds at >0.01 (undetectible), stays that way for a year, we stop the Lupron,
PSA
stays at that less than 0.01 for right at a year and starts a slow climb, at 0.8 I start zityga and prednisone, this lasts about 4 weeks,
PSA
back at that undetectable range BUT, my

Psa is back
Well I made it to 27 months of upsa testing after my surgery and went from <0.01 to my first detectable of 0.01. Don’t know what this means but I guess the next few upsa tests will be telling. Maybe a lab variation maybe not.

How long does SBRT to two lymph nodes continue to lower PSA?
Just wondering…does SBRT continue to drop
PSA
for any length of time? Or is it five sessions and it is what it is then? Curious if I can see further
PSA
reduction after 5 sessions to one node, then 5 to a second node. No prostate.

PSA and Eligard and bicalutamide
My
PSA
keep rising. Today,
PSA
went up to 1.1 (Today-03/13/24) from 0.37 (January). Doctor told me to take another Eljgard injection next week. This is the 2nd time. Doctor asked me to stop taking bicalutamide and dutasteride, as they appear not to be effective any longer.

PSA to have stabilized after skyrocketing. What does this mean?
With
PSA
rising very rapidly four months ago after finishing Eclipse Trial, I had SBRT done immediately followed by Provenge.
PSA
on the day of SBRT was 2.0. It’s my understanding that Provenge will not affect
PSA
testing so it’s hard to determine progress.

New Member saying Hello
My last
PSA
test was 9.64 in April, so my urologist recommended another biopsy, this time under sedation and (I think) ultrasound-guided. Of the 12 samples, one was (3+3) and two were (3+4). In some ways, it was a relief to finally know that there was cancer to explain the
PSA
rise.

Good morning to all I have been on Erleada and Degarelix for 15 months without much side effects ( except for hot flashes and tiredness) My
PSA
last month was 0.13 and my Test was 1.0 Gleason 4+3 Metastatic with diffused bone metastases.

Some good news to start the day: Complete Response in First Patient Ever Treated with 2 Doses of Cu-67 SAR-bisPSMA at 8GBq...6 months
"The patient remains with undetectable levels of Prostate Specific Antigen (
PSA
) for almost 6 months, following the administration of the second dose of 67Cu-SAR-bisPSMA.
PSA
is a marker used to assess clinical response to treatment and an indicator of the recurrence of prostate cancer."

Morgentaler Saturation Model: PSA vs Testosterone - Estrogen Patch vs Lupron ADT
The assumption that a
PSA
value is proportional to Prostate Growth rate may not be correct.

Radiation PSA, Orgovyx, Bone density Update 2/18/24
Rouge clone radiation on 10/31/23 has

from 4.83 on 11/20/23 to 0.85 on 12/18. HOWEVER,
PSA
up to 1.48 on 1/29/24 then 2.48 on 2/15/24. Waiting MO response but anticipate PET scan, radiation and/or switch to Xtandi.

Next step options after lupron/zytiga failed
He also suggested talking with a radiation oncologist since it appears that those 2 spots may be the cause of my
PSA
rising and the disease progression. But I am worried about collateral damage from the radiation.

Nagalase count
PSA
is steady at 32 Nagalase is an enzyme that cancer cells produce to protect themselves from the immune system.

Dutasteride Monotherapy is effective for Newly Diagnosed PCa men not on ADT
Dutasteride monotherapy (0.5 mg/day) causes an average drop in
PSA
of about 50% in both Groups, and an average drop of about 20% in prostate volume. In one man, his
PSA
dropped from 43 to 3 (a 93% drop)!
