What advances to expect in prostate cancer treatment in coming years?

@hector13 I am in a First in Human clinical trial undertaking this exact approach.
It’s what’s called a double bispecific T cell engager treatment.
Quick history, I had my prostate removed in 2011 at 55 years old. Went six years undetectable then got lazy and didn’t go to a doctor because I live in South Texas and Well never mind, anyway, I went four years not going to the doctor, thinking, I had made it into the CLEAR and then October 2024, I went for routine checkup and ultimately found out it had metastasized throughout my skeletal structure. Fortunately, other than a few lymph nodes, no organs.
Hormone therapy, ADT, worked up until January when PSA went from .07 to 14 in less than three months.
My doctor is a renowned oncologist and managed to get me into this trial.
I’m doing 50% for me, and 50% for those who come after me.
I pray every night for the best possible outcome.

I live in South Texas as well, and it is hot as hell today! You are fortunate to be in that clinical trial, and I am very interested in some specifics. Can you provide the name of the trial, and if possible, the clinical trial's numeric designation? I try to keep track of T-cell Engager trials to see if they are progressing favorably. Also, do you know if your trial is in phase 1, or phase 2? I really hope your treatment will get you cured. Best of luck!

Thanks for sharing. Hope the trial works for you and for the rest of us who - someday - may have to deal someday with an advanced prostate cacner metastatic disease.
