Summary/Conclusion
[/i][i]: The iFCG regimen, using only 3 cycles of
chemotherapy
(as opposed to 6 cycles of chemoimmunotherapy) achieves a very high rate of U-MRD in previously-untreated pts with CLL with IGHV-M CLL.

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

Information please on next treatment options
My husband was diagnosed in Jan 2020 with stage 4 prostate cancer with bone metastasis. He is castrate-resistant. He is on Lupron every three months. Zytiga failed after about a year. He is now on his fourth chemo (cab) which the doctor thinks is not working. He mentioned four options that he thinks

Update on Daddy-O
He said that he would like the next course of action to be Pluvicto but he'd like my dad to have a bit more time to rebound from the
chemotherapy
that he received earlier this year for his brain cancer. Dad's labs are looking good, but he wanted some of his counts to increase if they can.

Chemo head rash (or maybe NUBEQA)
I don’t see a lot of posts in this form about developing a rash on your scalp after chemo. Looking for any home remedies or OTC products others who’ve experienced this might suggest. My scalp started itching on Friday (day 8 after first docetaxel), then on Saturday a bunch of red bumps appeared

Reducing docetaxel dose
Hi all, for his third chemo session the onc reduced his dosage by 25% because he was getting severe neuropathy in his left leg. Is this going to be less effective now?

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

Then he did
chemotherapy

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
