Prostate cancer is a disease in which malignant (cancer) cells form in the tissues of the prostate.

It is not the same thing as Benign Prostate Hyperplasia (BPH) or Prostatitis and having one of these disease won’t lead to prostate cancer. Prostate cancer is the second leading cause of cancer death in men after lung cancer and is the most commonly diagn

As my regular readers probably have noted from prior posts, I am a strong advocate for research and the development of a prostate cancer vaccine. A cancer vaccine is different from the more “common” types of vaccines that are familiar to us. The “common” vaccines (i.e. tetanus or polio) are administered prior to having an illness. They are designed to expose a person to either dead or living antibodies to encourage an individual’s own body to make its own antibodies. These antibodies will then

The drugmaker halted a late-stage of its GVAX prostate cancer therapy after 20 more deaths were reported in patients on its treatment versus a placebo, sending its shares plummeting more than 75 percent to an all-time low, Reuters reports.

One of two trials that were conducted had enrolled 408 pa

Although previous studies have explored predictors of PSA test awareness, this is the first research to focus on health risk behaviors, such as smoking, physical inactivity, obesity, and excessive al

New study shows that on-demand use of vardenafil during the treatment period was associated with significantly greater erectile function and sexual intercourse completion rates compared to placebo. The success rates for the vardenafil on-demand group were also higher than for the nightly group. These data indicate that the use of on-demand vardenafil is of greater benefit than nightly treatment in patients following NSRP surgery and, in general, support the on-demand use of PDE5 inhibitors foll

Regrets After Prostate Surgery One in five men who undergoes prostate surgery to treat cancer later regrets the decision, a new study shows. And surprisingly, regret is highest among men who opt for robotic prostatectomy, a minimally invasive surgery that is growing in popularity as a treatment. The research, published in the medical journal European Urology, is the latest to suggest that technological advances in prostate surgery haven’t necessarily translated to better results for the men
