The purpose of this study was to assess patients' use of a crowdfunding platform to raise funds for radiation treatment and to better understand the direct and indirect costs associated with treatments. The GoFundMe crowdfunding database was queried for four unique categories related to radiation treatment campaigns. Covariates identified included clinical and demographic variables, and associations between amount raised and these predictors were analyzed using a generalized linear model. While 56% percent of campaigns cited direct costs associated with treatment, 73.4% of campaigns cited indirect costs related to treatment. Indirect expenses related to travel (31.7%) as well as living expenses (29.2%) were cited most often across all four treatment categories. This study enhances understanding regarding patients use of crowdfunding for radiation treatment. Increased focus should be placed on discussing the indirect costs of care with patients and their families.

Cabazitaxel is known to be effective in patients with castration-resistant prostate cancer (CRPC) showing resistance to docetaxel. The objective of this study was to investigate the molecular mechanism mediating cytotoxic activity of cabazitaxel in docetaxel-resistant human CRPC cells. Parental human CRPC cell line PC3 (PC3/P) was continuously exposed to increasing doses of docetaxel, and a cell line resistant to docetaxel, PC3/R, was developed. Phenotypic differences between these cell lines were investigated. There were no significant differences in sensitivity to cabazitaxel between PC3/P and PC3/R. In PC3/P, bot
