Post chemo resensitivity to hormonal treatment
I have read here that Zytiga or Xtandi may be tried after chemo despite resistance having developed pre-chemo to one of them. Does anyone have a reference to anything in the literature about this? Thank you

CVD & GnRH agonists/antagonists
New study below [1]. Men with PCa have a greater risk of death from cardiovascular [CV] events, and androgen deprivation therapy [ADT] further increases that risk. The study looked at ADT drugs that target gonadotropin-releasing hormone (GnRH) receptors in the pituitary gland. The drugs were Degarelix

Long time lurker having been on A/S for 8 years. Now at 3+4 (5% or less) and will be undergoing SBRT soon. My team says I should do at least 4-6 months of ADT and i know weight training can help while on ADT. I am 71 and because of covid don't want to do training in a gym. Any suggestions on what sort

Can we purchase T4 in UK without a prescription?
Could somebody PM me please regarding the above. I have developed a few issues over the past 2 months since changing to Bitiron and think I would probably do better to take thyroxine separate with a small amount of liothyronine. I swopped from Thyroid S to Bitiron in October because it just didn't

Greetings from Sweden
Hello , I am now writing because apparently my husbands PSA have risen during Adt-treatment. He has had Trelstar injections for 2 years now and PSA in August was zero, but now apparently around 2 checked by his GP. He has an appointment with his specialist in February. He feels fine without any pain

Getting Slightly Concerned
In November having been on ADT for 4 months and Xtandi for just 1 month, things were looking pretty good – PSA dropped from 13 at dx to 0.33 (although I was getting a little more pain from some bone mets). Then with December’s blood test, PSA has stalled at 0.34 and the bone pain continues to increase

First ever PSMA scan shows two small bone lesions
I recently posted about my father who had just completed IMRT and three years of Lupron (no mets seen on bone/CT scans). At the time his MO was suggesting adding Zytiga per studies showing its effectiveness with ADT at diagnosis for localized high grade cancer (he is Gleason 9). MO also ordered PSMA

Prostate removal after radiation??
Since diagnosis (2016) I've had chemo (taxotere), 25 radiation sessions on my prostate, along with regular shots of ADT (Eligard). I currently have a PSA of .7 I recently had a PSMA scan, and the only cancer in my body at this point is in the prostate gland itself. The scans were sent to my urologist

RADIOTHERAPY to prostate. Nearly finished chemo/doxetaxel, am on ADT injections PSA 0.11,
oncologist recomends 6 radiotherapy to the prostate in march. Gleason 9, PCA mets in hip DX July ish. .Would any one mind giving experience and opinions on taking radiotherapy. I've said yes, but know it's 50/50 for any benifit, but realise there's a possible price to pay with side effects short and

PSA and CT Questions -- 15 Months Following Diagnosis
I would appreciate your feedback on whether the recent small increase in PSA from 0.06 to 0.08 ng/mL for my 90-year-old dad is potentially significant. He is one year into ADT. Also, a CT abdomen/pelvis scan conducted yesterday revealed "sclerotic bony lesions". There was no mention of sclerotic bony

BAT Question
