PSA, a protein produced by the prostate gland, is used as an indicator of cancer activity. Men without prostates should have no PSA in their blood, unless some prostate cancer cells remain after surgery and are roaming throughout their bodies. Prostatectomy often cures prostate cancer, but sometimes the cancer does return in other parts of the body. When this happens it is called metastatic and is considered incurable. Once men relapse, the median survival is five years.

Time.com People Fortune EW Breast cancer cases rise, cancer deaths decline Doctors say early screening for cancers has helped to reduce death rates From Rea Blakey CNN (CNN) Cancer deaths particularly those for breast, prostate, lung and colon cancers declined during the 1990s, the National Cancer Institute reports. Doctors said early detection might be saving more lives. From 1995 to 1998, deaths from breast cancer fell 3.4 percent; prostate cancer, 4.5 percent; colorectal cancer, 1.3 percent; and lung cancer, 0.8 percent. However, the number of new breast cancer cases rose 1.2 percent per year, from 1992 to 1998. Mammography and early detection have helped to raise incidence rates, said Brenda Edwards of the National Cancer Institute, the final author of the report. "We think that there may be some changes in both the clinical management, surgical management, looking for nodes and the way they're being diagnosed pathologically that may be helping us find more," Edwards said. The figures come from an annual report that is a collaborative effort by the National Cancer Institute, the American Cancer Society, the North American Association of Central Cancer Registries and the Centers for Disease Control and Prevention.

The only thing left is a prayer and hope that someway, my wife will see the dawning of a new year. The love of life, our Lord and dreams are the only things keeping the fire lit. We Humbly ask for your help! Nearly 4 years ago, my wife was diagnosed with colon cancer after an emergency appendectomy to remove her ruptured appendix of, believe it or not, 2 weeks. Actually, her appendix problem saved her life but little did we know the problems she faced. Throughout the next several years, she has had a total of 3 tumors removed with another one inevitable due to the cancer count in her blood. This is according to her multiple doctors. Her oncologist is now waiting to see where the next tumor pops up and then treat her while her other two doctors do not want to wait that long as it could be fatal. We're not waiting! My objective is to get her and to keep her in the 25 percent survival rate. The only way I can do this is with your help. The medical expenses are staggering and it is going to get much worse due to chemotherapy and radiation therapy in addition to another possible surgery.

Pharmaceutical company Novartis is filing for marketing approval with the U.S. Food and Drug Administration after only three years of study and development. The process usually takes an average of five to seven years. "We believe this is the fastest from first dose in man to filing," said David Epstein, the president of Novartis Oncology. "What the agency has told us is that they view this as a very important new drug, which has benefits that are not seen in current cancer agents and they're going to work with us very closely to review it as fast as possible." Novartis is so optimistic that its plant in Europe is working around the clock to produce supplies of the drug.

Health and Human Services Secretary Tommy Thompson made the announcement Thursday afternoon, calling drugs like Gleevec "the wave of the future." Gleevec, which was formerly spelled "Glivec" and is also known as STI-571, is a pill that's taken once a day. "When we started studying it in 1998, frankly, it worked much better than we ever anticipated," said David Epstein, president of Novartis Oncology, which manufactures the drug.
