Dr. Eugene Kwon of the Mayo Clinic in Rochester, Minnesota is a physician who defies categorization. While he is considered a urologist, his skills go far beyond surgery and into imaging to immunology. Here, he presents his "DIY Combat Manual For Beating Prostate Cancer" with a special emphasis on imaging for prostate cancer.

I was diagnosed with stage 4 in august 2022. Original PSA was 38. Gleason 4+5. 12 cores out of 13 cancerous. Mets to distant lymph nodes. I had RARP within 3 weeks of diagnosis. Oncologist put me on permanent hormone therapy (Zoladex). I told my oncologist that I wanted to hit this cancer with a sledge hammer so he agreed to put me on aggressive treatment plan.

Thank you for sharing your story. My PSA was 26.5 Gleason score of 9 and all 12 cores had cancer in them. After RP they removed 9 local lymph nodes and found 4 of them with cancer. 3 months after RP the doctor ordered a PSA and it came back as being 21.6 instead of zero and so he finally puts on apalutamide and zoladex. With a PSMA Petscan that I paid for out of pocket, they saw metastasis in the lymph nodes in the abdominal and retroperineal area and also some early metastasis to the bones. Too bad the followup was not done sooner and hormone therapy given sooner. Now, I want chemo and radiation to force a curative outcome rather than a palliative outcome.

At 21:24 Dr. Kwon talks about the logic behind what he calls "deluxe treatment". ***The goal should be to attain a curative, vs. palliative, outcome.*** This is **really significant** because many physicians (such as mine) are really focused on palliative therapy only, even for low volume disease! "Up until recently, the focus of treating recurrent prostate cancer was palliation - let the cancer get bad, treat it with something, let it get bad {again}, treat it with something, etc. Use different agents until you lose control and then the patient dies." (i.e., sequential/palliative therapy). "I like this kind of situation where you see the disease and then you go very aggressive in terms of managing the disease to the point you hope you can knock it out. We usually use a mixture of approaches and treatments to try to force that outcome. I call this curative therapy strategy."

I am a 67 year old male and I was diagnosed in March of 2022 with a MRI and biopsy that resulted in 11 of 12 cores positive mostly Gleason 6 and 7 but one Gleason 8 (4+4) and one Gleason 9 (4+5) both high percentage of core 80 percent. Had the whole body bone and pelvis scan which showed no metastasis, but I kept pressing for a PSMA Pet Scan which one year ago wasn’t easy to get but my urologist thankfully agreed to ask Medicare and it was approved. The PSMA came back negative so no signs of spread on PSMA Pet Scan. My PSA never went above 10, I believe 9.5 was the highest it ever got so a slight positive I would think, but I do have high Gleason score disease. June 1st of 2022 I started Orgorvyx and had definitive Proton therapy for nine weeks (including the Seminal Vesicle and lymph nodes) then started Abiraterone mid September 2022. So I think I am one of the earliest patients to get a PSMA Pet Scan and I am now one year of ADT with Orgorvyx in June and September will be one year Abiraterone. I know the protocols have not been worked out yet for people with High Risk Disease and a clear PSMA Pet Scan. My thoughts are that I would like to discuss the possibility of stopping the ADT early. My Radiologist has said 1 to 2 years of ADT is sufficient, my oncologist has said 2 years. I consider myself lucky to be getting good care and some of the latest treatments available. I promised myself I would give everything I got to cure the cancer but would not risk ruining my health with the ADT treatments as quality of life is very important to me. I am definitely following the advise about exercise, exercise, exercise and don’t want to do long lasting damage my body for a cure. I now have low grade anemia and osteopenia from the treatment. So my PSA has been undetectable and I also have Natera ( Signatera) Genetic Residual disease testing done every 3 months which also comes back negative for any signs of disease. I feel that I am reaching the point where the cumulative effects of the ADT are becoming a big risk to my long term health and I am considering stopping the ADT at the end of August which will give me 15 months on Orgorvyx and 12 months on Abiraterone. I am presenting my case for a review and to open a discussion on shared decision making as I am struggling with my choices on whether to stop the ADT and need all the information I can get to make my decision. Thank you so much for your consideration. I would like to have my situation presented as a question in a future video if possible.

Dr Kwon, thank you very much for these videos and your expertise. My father (age 65 then) had what was then called type 4 prostate cancer in 1975 (thought to be there for about 4 years before showing symptoms, which was a fall in the garden from pressure on spine from mets in spine) and was put on stilboestrol 1mg per day post a large initial hospital injection series with same. He lived until March 1991 though doctors said he would never walk again because of secondaries in his spine and would only live six months. The stilboestral caused a heart attack 5 years into treatment but he was treated for this and got over it and drove up to 1 year before death. He would have driven to the end but me and mother said no, no its ok we will drive lol. I am his son now 70 years old and no cancer but always watching. Thanks again Andrew.

I really found both these videos valuable but I do have one criticism. This is the continued position that radioligand therapy (Lutetium and Actinium) and PSMA PET are new technologies being developed in the United States. As a colleague and friend, who is also a urologist and prostate cancer researcher, has stressed to me from the point of my diagnosis in 2018 we are 7-20+ years behind various countries on PET imaging modalities for prostate cancer and radioligand therapy. It is time that these methodologies start being presented earlier to patients and if that can not be done here because of regulatory issues than there needs to be a lobby to get patients to countries where these methodologies can be applied. Along with this we should lobby insurers and CMS to pay for overseas treatment and imaging.

In the US the approach is ready, shot, aim. I suspect that many of the failures after treatment may be failure to detect the full extent of the disease. Dr. Kwon, should we be moving away from Choline and Axumin scans with far more sensitive Pylarify scans becoming available?

Dr. Charles “Snuffy” Myers retired about five years ago (and would speak at PCRI annual conferences)wrote a prostate cancer diet book with his daughter. I so wish that book was updated. But the idea was to keep your prostate cancer in a durable remission. And exactly as you posted not to feed the cancer with your diet but rather to starve it with your diet. In addition he also proposed that treating prostate cancer with multiple agents would result in better outcomes, as was the case with other cancers. At the same time, he was always concerned about minimizing side effects through an aggravate of approach’s too. I’m very glad that Dr Kwon has picked up the baton.

Yes. There is a classic dilemma regarding rising PSA and no way to pinpoint the cancer’s location (until it hits a certain level and PSMA might spot it). The difficulty is that we know hitting the cancer early is best practice. Soooo, docs may guess the reoccurrence location (assuming just one) is in the Prostate bed and hit that with radiation. If that is combined with ADT the PSA may reverse course. Perhaps due to hitting the cancer or perhaps due to palliative ADT.

Great video, Im in the process of finding out if my Prostate cancer has spread outside the Prostate after radiation. PSA dropped from a pre radiation of 14.1 to a low of 0.19 maybe 2 months later. But within within a 3 months span PSA skyrocketed to 4.25. When I spoke with the radiation therapist when my PSA was 3.01, he stated.that I was fine and it was still under the range. I tried to point out to him I was very concerned in which the speed it had gotten that high. He just made me an appointment with him 6 months down the line. I've have since got in touch with my urologist and he sent me to get a pelvic scan and skeleton imaging scan.Plus he scheduled a meeting with an oncologist. The pelvic scan showed nothing unusual but niw I know that doesn't mean anything. But my oncologist canceled the skeleton imaging appointment and scheduled a PET scan. 3 years ago when I started this journey, PMSA wasn't available for me. I was thinking this rise, rapid rise in ny PSA was just a bump/bounce and it will start to go down again but it has not been a year yet since my last radiation session. So Im trying to play chess and not checkers. I played chess when I was first diagnosed, didn't do enough research 😮.

This is not intended as a negative comment, its a factual comment however you may cause to sensor free speech if you wish to do so. My point is simply, to suggest to a man or woman that cancers of the sexual organs can be cured or treated using the methods described is misleading and so also incorrect. All treatment you've spoken about have massive sexual side effects, in effect Neutering the men and women to the point of leaving them in a state of hormon deficiency and inducing Asexaulity living, with horrible side effects. These therapies or treatment are not a cure or treatment for these sexual cancers when the results leave you with sexual side effects. While your intentions are genuine and treatment offered may extend life by a fiew years, you should also advise people that they will have horrible sexual side effects, and using the words hormone therapy to treat men and women is only a polite way in saying Castration therapy. We all know the harm and damage low hormones causes to the brain and body, this is well documented as seen in menopausal wemen or men with testicular failure. For ballance and honesty you should also go into these horrible issues that patients will be forced to live with during and after treatment, and no amounts of toxic antidepressants can cure. Good presentation otherwise, Regards MB
