Reporting results from Eclipse Trial
Prior to beginning trial last June I had just gone castrate resistant and
PSA
was at 3.3. A few weeks after the last of four injections
PSA
settled in at .25 so there was still something left.

CT urogram
Hi all, when my husband first had symptoms synonymous with Pca he was sent for a CT urogram, we never knew his
PSA
result, this came back OK. 9 months later an MRI and a subsequent biopsy showed he was Gleason 9 with widespread bone metastasis.

BONE DENSITY TEST IS BAD
Had
PSA
of 125 last April, and oncologist put me on Relogolix and Darolutemide. That along with going to plant based diet and adding weights and HITT exercise 3-4x per week, has brought me down to < .006. that’s the good news .

What is the next step
My
PSA
has been fluctuating and is now 0.65, doubling time is 16 months, I have not had ADT yet and my MO wants to just wait and watch. What do you think?

PSMA PET Looks Good But PSA Rising
Just wondering how his
PSA
could be going up to the degree that it has, when his PSMA PET looks relatively okay as far as we can tell? I will post the most recent scan report below. Is there something we should be asking the MO about? Why would
PSA
be going up but PSMA PET looks the way it does?

Triplet and now Radiation?
Original
PSA
was around 9 and put on Casodex for month, then Lupron every 3 months, plus Darolutamide. Just completed 6 sessions of chemo with Docetaxel. Got call from RO yesterday and they want to do radiation now. Of course I trust my medical team but curious of HU opinions on this path.

PSA after salvage Brachy
an update for those that have asked questions about Salvage HDR Brachytherapy: I’m nearly 3 months out and had
PSA
test yesterday. Results were: 0.5. Using Abbott CMIA. This equals the nadir in 2014. Headed in right direction. Any questions please don’t hesitate to ask.

What's different between Xtandi vs NUBEQA® (darolutamide) vs ERLEADA® (apalutamide)
Hello Everyone, zytiga didn’t work so move to xtandi After two months, Xtandi did not work, and
PSA
started going up; I suggested to the doctor to prescribe other medicine ( NUBEQA® (darolutamide) or ERLEADA® (apalutamide) based on this group's recommendations.

Enzalutamide (Xtandi): Start at half standard dose to extend efficacy time span?
In 2022
PSA
started rising to 3. New PSMA scan in April 2023 showed 3 new metastasis near the prostate and
PSA
up to 5.4. Started Xtandi 160 mg/di in April which pushed
PSA
back down to <0.1 but ALT liver enzyme up to 560 (ULN 59). This forced stopping Xtandi for 4 weeks until ALT was down to 69.

PSA trippled since last Lupron infusion
My
PSA
was 0.05 between February 2023 and June 2023, then in September it ticked higher to 0.06 and at yesterday's Lupron injection it was 0.17. Should I be concerned? Anybody with similar experience: what did you do? Am I CR or still CS? Should I ask for Lu-177/Pluvicto ASAP? Thanks for reading.
