New cancer-fighting method leverages the mechanical force of T cells.
Immunotherapy is a promising weapon in the fight against cancer. It has proven to be much more effective than chemotherapy and radiotherapy in treatment of some cancers. The drawback is that it manages to cure only about 20% of patients; the remaining 80% do not respond to this kind of treatment. “But

Supplements to take during IMRT while on Zytiga
Hello all, my husband has just started 5 weeks of IMRT to the abdomen based on Axumin scan which revealed a 1.8 cm avid retrocaval metastatic lymph node. He has been on Zytiga since September 2019. PSA is now at 6.18, up from 3.6 two months prior. I’ve seen several posts on supplements to take while

Impressive research
I have done my fair share of research in the last 24 hours. Excuse my elementary concepts to understand the lingo. I have found that radiation therapy in conjunction with immunotherapy seems to have a systemic response. Essentially leading a horse to water. Again a lot of this is dependent upon things

To treat or not to treat: is it acceptable to avoid active therapies in advanced prostate cancer today?
New Italian paper below [1] "Introduction: Recently, there has been a paradigm shift in the treatment of advanced prostate cancer (PCa) because the approval of a number of new agents has significantly improved overall survival.

Side effects of IMRT?
I get my gold beads (fiduciary markers) on Dec. 4, 3030 and begin intensity modulated radiation therapy soon after. What were your experiences? Side effects? Diet? etc. Thanks.

Prostate Cancer with Covid
In Nov 2019 [at age 79] I was diagnosed with prostate cancer with a PSA of 96.2. The subsequent biopsy showed a Gleason 5+4 adenocarcinoma in 12 of 12 cores; clinical stage T3a, N0, M0. A bone scan and CT scan were negative for metastatic disease. But extraprostatic extension at the right apex with involvement

Any advice for a struggling runner?
Hi fellow travellers, I am writing for some advice regarding my running following my prostatectomy and then salvage radiotherapy. I have been a keen runner since my 40’s and became quite good at it, running most days and completing many marathons. Since just before my diagnosis and up to the present

Post SBRT CAT Scan
In June of this year I had stereotactic body radiation therapy for a slow growing tumor in my left lung which was presumed to be a recurrence of a previous NSCLC in that same area. Biopsy was not an option due to the tumor's proximity to the aorta. I had a follow up CAT scan earlier this week and the

Stable CT scan. Five years+ living with Stage IV NSCLC
This is an excerpt from a caring bridge post I made yesterday. I also included a whole bunch of language stuff about covid-19and the need for each of us to do our part to protect one another, but I’ll leave that there. I am grateful that I just received happy CT scan results
