Husband has the BRCA2 mutation, does this change treatments?
This April visit PSA 0.01 &
testosterone
<1.0! Should MO have talked/explained about PARP inhibitors at visit when she told us he has BRCA2?

Prolia/DEXA Update - Need Help!
Currently have PSA <0.01 &
Testosterone
<1.0 and have been since Jan. 2019. All CT's and Bone Scans have always been clear, only thing that has shown up was the node on Axumin. MO wanted to start Prolia without ever doing a DEXA, we said no until we know if his bones are thinning.

Anyone hear of prostrate cancer spreading to the testicle? Worried.
Had focal radiation to the nodes in 2017, just 4 months of hormones, and did good ( psa undetectable, normal
testosterone
) until last December 2018. His, psa is now 0.28, almost tripling every 3 months. Plan is to repeat psma scan in a couple of weeks if it is close to 1.0.

Question regarding Lupron
Although his
testosterone
is very low, his PSA is 5,000,000. Does that mean it’s not working?

EAU19 Barcelona – 15-19 March 2019 - Testosterone slows PCa recurrence in low-risk patients.
Low
testosterone
also caused a loss of sexual function in many men on anti-androgen treatment. This led some doctors to suggest
testosterone
treatment of some low-risk men after radiation or surgical treatment.

Fascinating article on controlling the evolution of cancer and maintaining it as a chronic disease
Of course the parallel with ADT being that
testosterone
deprivation is far more damaging to the weaker “good” cancer cells and have very little effect on the far more dangerous stronger cancer cells.

EAU19 Barcelona – 15-19 March 2019 - Low Free Testosterone is an Independent Risk Factor for High Grade PCa
Overall, Towe stresses the importance of assessment of
testosterone
(and more importantly, of free
testosterone
) not only in prostate cancer patients but in older men in general. He cites previous work showing decreasing free
testosterone
with increased age.
