I am the delivery man these days! Optimizing existing therapies!
The study explores a new method for cancer treatment combining light-activated therapy with a special drug that targets low-oxygen areas in tumors. This approach uses tiny tiny tiny capsules to deliver both the light-sensitive agent and the drug directly to the tumor, enhancing the treatment's effectiveness

Steroids and Radium 223
Hi Hopefully my husband will start Radium 223 in 4-6 weeks. He recently stopped abiraterone after 5 months as his PSA was doubling every month. While he was on abiraterone he was taking 2mgs of dexamethasone, although 1mg for the last month. He’s currently taking 6mgs of prednisilone but our question

Signatera tumor dna test
Has anyone heard of using the Signatera test from Natera to detect the presence of prostate cancer recurrence when PSA is rising but the PSMA PET scan is negative?

PSA Dropped after 22 days of Zytiga
On Nov 1, my cancer was diagnosed as castrate resistant. Abiraterone and Prednisone was added to Lupron. On November 3 I had a Lupron shot and started Abiraterone and Prednisone on November 10. Today I had a PSA test. My PSA dropped from 0.8 on November 1 to 0.44 today. I was not expecting such dramatic

Here we go again
I was doing better, now the stomach pain is back worse than before. I guess its my own fault for eating McDonald's I was reading that unexplained weight loss could be colon cancer. I'm not sure it is unexplained as I have cut a lot of foods out. Processed foods . I'm just so scared to go to the

I now know I’m in the 10% worst category for genomic results. 20% chance of Mets in 10 years 25% chance of death in 15. Not happy. It’s out of my hands. They will ADT me then prostate bed and lymph node radiation. I guess I kinda always knew. I’m assuming someone has determined these steps are required

a new way to deliver platinum chemo works greatly in vivo
"The new type of chemotherapeutic drug PtNC@BSA-iRGD exhibits excellent antitumor activity in vitro/vivo, in comparison to clinical commercial first-line carboplatin.

What is the next step
I have one more Immunotherapy for my bladder cancer, so far all scan have shown no metastasis. Now I need to focus on my PC after more than a year of ignoring it. 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

Best Salvage Brachytherapy and SBRT locations
I'm trying to find top hospitals that have an experienced RO in salvage treatments for radio-recurrent PCa. I'm close to Duke Cancer Center and they have a RO there who does salvage Brachytherapy but he's only been practicing for 5 years so I doubt he has as much experience as I'd like. I think my

Jaw necrosis. Check up. Better safe than sorry. Thought I would get away with dying from my PC before I would need to be at a dentist lol.
4 plus years on Zometa so getting a check up for necrosis to be on the safe side. One of the members of my oncology team who I see about every other appointment finally for about the 3rd time bringing it up with me I agreed best to get a dental check for any signs of jaw necrosis. So delayed my Zometa

Possible Problems With Bladder Cancer Treatment
My treatment now seems to be - Flexy Cystoscopy first - If anything is found then booked for admission to have tumour(s) removed. This is done with a procedure called TURBT and rigid cystoscopy. As a BTY - I am unsure if my BCG treatment has ended, or have I one more go. I am not allowed "general

Combine standard care with alternative care
The University of Maryland reported two cases of terminated PCs by combining standard care treatment with an alternative treatment. By reducing the PSAs to less than 3, the clioquinol + zinc killed more cancer than testosterone could renew, therefore termination. My PSA in three months went from 58

Lung Biopsy - Lucky?
During my 1st PEt scan for PC a shadow was revealed on my lung. Subsequent to my PC treatment I did a CT scan of the area and am undergoing a biopsy of that node in a few days. The pulmonary Dr. had doubts that it was from the PC since it was so far removed from the prostate and my cancer was not advanced

Swallowing difficulties 5 months post-op
Hi everyone. I’m 46 and had keyhole oesohagectomy surgery 5 months ago for T3N1M0 adenocarcinoma. I’ve recovered really well in most ways. No reflux and sleeping well. I’ve gained 2 stone (12.7kg) since my post-op weight (having lost 4 stone since my symptoms began) and I feel fit and healthy BUT I

Radiotherapy
I’ve just finished a 3 week course of Radiotherapy and I feel dreadful. I’ve been very sick and it feels like flu. I’m very tired and sleeping a lot. Complete loss of appetite. I didn’t find chemotherapy as bad as this. Has anyone else had this experience ?
