Advances in Prostate Cancer Treatment Since PSA Developments
Overview
Prostate cancer treatment has seen significant advancements following the implementation of PSA (Prostate-Specific Antigen) testing. This progress has greatly improved the prognosis for patients. Over the past two decades, survival rates for prostate cancer have remarkably increased from 67% to 97% across all stages.
Current Survival Rates
As highlighted by health-disease.com, the five-year relative survival rate for patients diagnosed at the local and regional stages is now an impressive 100%.
Challenges and New Discoveries
Prostate cancer remains one of the leading causes of cancer deaths among men in the U.S. A major challenge is that prostate cancer cells often resist radiotherapy and chemotherapy. However, recent discoveries have opened new treatment avenues:
- Viral Connection: Studies reveal that a specific virus may be present in about 40% of cancerous prostate tissues with certain genetic mutations. Researchers are investigating whether this virus, closely related to one found in mice, is a contributing factor. Understanding its origin and effects may take several years.
- Dietary Impact: Innovative research has found that a combination of the spice turmeric (curcumin) and vegetables such as broccoli, Brussels sprouts, and kale can significantly slow tumor growth in mice.
Treatment Options
Modern prostate cancer treatments include:
- Radiation
- Chemotherapy
- Active Surveillance
- Hormonal Therapy
- Surgery
The choice of treatment depends on several factors, including age, cancer stage, and medical advice. Consult your doctor to determine the best option for your condition.
These advancements offer hope and improved outcomes for those diagnosed with prostate cancer.
