FG-3246 shows promising results in phase 1 trial
As mono therapy "data from the study showed that 36% of evaluable patients experienced at least a 50% reduction in prostate-specific antigen (PSA) levels from baseline. Among RECIST-evaluable patients, 20% demonstrated a partial response or a reduction in tumor size of at least 30%. The median duration

Bicalutamide
My Dad last week was diagnosed with 3 spots of cancer on his prostate. 3+4=7, 4+4=8, and a 4+3=7 spot. The thing I don’t understand is during the visit to the Urologist to discuss his biopsy results, the urologist prescribed 50mg of Bicalutamide to begin reducing his testosterone. I believe this is premature

Prostate cancer
My prostate condition started around eight years ago when I had urinary track infection which also led to prostatitis. Ever since then, my PSA jumped from 2 to 7.8 during the last 5 years. I had two biopsies… first one, four years ago, they detected no positive cancer cells in my prostate. However

Symptoms of PsA
Hello I wondered if anyone could share with me the symptoms of PsA? Although I have been told that I've probably had this for a while, the only sign, for years, was two slightly swollen toes which at times were a little sore. Well that's what I thought, until I started to realise that some foot pain

Still confused about PSA and Testosterone testing
I have been reading posts here for some time and there seems to be a split between those who only get PSA tests each time they go to their doctors and those that get both tests each time. I had a baseline testosterone test before Lupron and before radiation. I am now doing my 6 month follow up and

Any experience with Xtandi (enzolutamide).
The long story is in another post. Short story is the PC metastasized to the brain and they added Xtandi to the Lupron shots , as it's the only drug that will go to the brain. It seems to be working, Scans and PSA are where they should be and symptoms are more discouraging than debilitating. The

Two years ago my psa began to rise at an alarming rate it was doubling monthly if not more. I started eligard

questions after tadiotherapy?
Hi all What questions should I ask my radio oncologist as we finish up radiotherapy for oligo metastatic prostate cancer Which included radiation of distant metastatic lymph nodes, as well as the prostate and local pelvic lymph nodes? Also should I expect him to recommend a follow up psma pet-ct scan

HELP WITH SIDE EFFECTS FROM ENZALUTAMIDE
In 2019 after a prolonged bout of diarrhea a blood test was ordered, the cause of the diarrhea was not discovered but the test indicated bone cancer. From there tests showed extensive bone mets and grade 9 Gleason APC. Chemotherapy radiation and firmagon followed. My psa went way down for about 18 months

Any Data or MO Advice Regarding Dutasteride / Finasteride At Very Early Biochemical Recurrence?
Does anyone know of any studies or MO advice they've gotten regarding use of Dutasteride or Finasteride at very early signs of Biochemical Reccurrence (uPSA in the 0.03 - 0.1 range) prior to Salvage Radiotherapy? It's obviously going to slow PSA doubling time and thereby probably lengthen the time

PSA Response From Broccoli Sprout Extract (Sulforaphane) May Due To Just Being Moderate ADT
I forgot I ran across this a 2 years ago as many with PCa diagnosis are very interested in Sulforaphane due to a lot of excitement from a few studies a few years ago. (This fueled an explosion of supplements on Amazon.) This however is one of the more expensive supplements and my jury is still out

Bleeding while starting stims??
Hi All, First round of IVF so not sure if this is normal or not! I had my prostap injection to begin downregulation on 4th March, my period began a week later on 11th March. 4 days of heavy bleeding, pretty much normal for me as an endo sufferer! However, I have continued to lightly bleed since, ranging
