Advanced cancer patients are looking for any boost they can get. Food can strengthen defenses against cancer or even possibly attack cancer cells. There is a search for ways to starve the cancer cells while supporting normal cells. For more, see ProstateCancerLab.com #cancer

Advanced cancer patients need information about their disease to guide their treatment decisions. Diagnostic tests require tumor tissue or blood as input. Yet no one focuses on managing the scarce resource of tumor tissue. Problems ensure. For more see prostatecancerlab.com.

Advanced cancer patients want access to personalized drug combinations, which can offer a more durable response. However, a drug combination can raise concerns about toxicity and liability. Custom dosing offers a partial solution. For more see prostatecancerlab.com.

How can an advanced cancer patient get advice on testing and treatment options? Ask a crowd of other advanced patients and get online second opinions. For more, and the case of patient Robert Ellis, see prostatecancerlab.com #cancerhacker #cancertesting #cancertreatment

Nutrition can be leveraged to reduce the frequency, severity, and duration of cancer symptoms and side effects, leading to better outcomes and quality of life. Managing nutrition empowers patients when most things are out of their control. For more see prostatecancerlab.com.

Survival and quality of life in cancer patients is so incredibly variable. I want to know why - quickly - so I can figure out how to help patients promote resilience. Please help me get the word out about the #cancerresilienceproject unchartedhealth.org/cancer-project

How can proteomics and RNA sequencing guide treatment? Consider the case of Mike Yancey, who discovered a chemotherapy normally used for lung cancer to address his advanced prostate cancer. For more, see prostatecancerlab.com. #cancerhacker #cancertreatment

Exciting new cancer vaccine research is looking at combinations with other therapies. The hope is that even if they don’t work on their own, they can initiate or boost a response to then set the stage for better response to something else. For more, see prostatecancerlab.com.

Your goal should be to understand your healthy profile. How does it change over time? How does it compare with other people? What happens when you first get ill? You can quantify a lot of this easily, some of it is clunky. For more see Mike Snyder @ prostatecancerlab.com.

I’m happy to share this article by Glenn Sabin on the distinction between precision and personalized medicine that I contributed to: The end of one-size-fits-all cancer treatment?: mailchi.mp/glennsabin/the…

While 6 of 7 Pluvicto patients interviewed would recommend it to a friend, that recommendation wasn’t enthusiastic, with an average satisfaction rating of 3 out of 5. An average response duration of 6.5 months was short of expectations. For more see cancerpatientlab.circle.so

When you get a serious health issue, who do you tell? Many people keep it to themselves because they don't want people feeling sorry for them or expecting help. But you might be cheating yourself and missing a chance to help others. For more see cancerpatientlab.circle.so

The current treatment model for cancer is personalized to the cancer, not the unique expression within each individual patient. Advanced cancer patients need to gather test data about their unique profile to personalize their treatment. For more see cancerpatientlab.circle.so
