I think I will be coming off of Xeloda, which I have loved….
…but I am becoming very short of breath, and think that it may have stopped working. I have a CT scan tomorrow, and get to see my doctor Thursday, then may start a new treatment Friday, depending on the scan. My question is what have other people started taking once Xeloda failed them? My doctor says

What happens after Chemo (Docetaxel)
How long can someone live after hormone therapy stops working and can he do multiple sessions of
Docetaxel
with breaks in between or is this it after these 4?

Life After Chemo???
Well, I am now through 3 infusions of
Docetaxel
. Glad all of you strongly recommended it for me. First 7 days awful, next 7 days not too bad and the last 7 days almost normal. Interim numbers are going down - PSA 15.5 to 2.7 and ALP 235 to 125. Three more sessions to go.

First major pathological fracture
We’ve done
Docetaxel
(3 rounds, stopped due to pulmonary edema and PCP pneumonia), Zytiga, Xtandi, Xofigo, and Lynparza . Dr would like him to try Cabazitaxel but husband is not sure given his bad experience with
Docetaxel
. Dr also considering provenge.

Mixed Results for Immunotherapy in Metastatic Prostate Cancer
The activity fell short of the 40% threshold for a positive outcome but well above the historical response rate for immunotherapy in patients previously treated with
docetaxel

Keytruda, a question probably no one can answer.
He has done
Docetaxel
early on so this would probably be cabazitaxel. It breaks our hearts to see him so depressed. He is young only in his 50s with a young family. He has a very supportive wife and lots of family and friends who love him.

CT Scan 3 years into mCRPCa
I just finished my 6th
docetaxel
course of 10 (yeah, they do get a bit rougher as it goes on) and got CT scans today. MO's were curious as my PSA has simply been fluctuating around 50 during the chemo (+-10).

Optimal Chemo-Hormonal Sequencing for MCRPC Maybe Taxotere - Zytiga - Jevtana - Xtandi
The study included two different groups: Group A (80 men) were given
docetaxel
chemotherapy (Taxotere) followed by one of the second-line hormonal therapies: either abiraterone (Zytiga) or enzalutamide (Xtandi) Group B (32 men) were given a second-line hormonal therapy then followed by Taxotere

Are you still working?
I stopped working after my chemo (
docetaxel
) treatment 4 years ago. I’m now 59. I couldn’t conceive of a 40 hour a week job, by mid most afternoons I’m wiped out.

BRCA2 mutation and PARP inhibitor in the castration sensitive
I had been aiming for a more aggressive approach with long-term ADT perhaps transdermal estrogen, plus either Zytiga or
Docetaxel
. However, after reading the thread and some studies, I understand that using a PARP inhibitor would eliminate the need for all of these making my choice rather easy.

Neupogen Injection During Doxetaxil Treatments.
Good morning Warriors: I had my first
Docetaxel
infusion 3 weeks ago. I had a bad reaction and was put in hospital for 5 days because of a low white blood cell count - 5 - and low sodium count of 119.

Docetaxel/Taxotere stopped after 7th Infusion
My first chemo infusion was Dec 16, 2020, with the 21 day cadence. My last two blood tests prior to infusion showed my PSA jumping up again. I wasn't worried about my PSA rising as the fine gentlemen on this forum have stated that PSA may go up do to dying cells. MO told me "it's not working so we're

HOW GOOD IS DAROLUTAMIDE?
Abiraterone didn't work; having good luck with
Docetaxel
. Have metastases in lymph nodes; bones clear so far.
Docetaxel
has run its course. Anti-receptor is next. MO wants old standby, Enzalutamide. But I've read highly complimentary stuff about new AR, Darolutamide.

BiTE Clinical Trial
Treatment history: He started off immediately on Lupron and had
Docetaxel
, which helped a great deal. He switched ADT to Apalutamide + Firmagon about a year in, which he’s still on now, as well as Zometa every 3 months. PSA is now at 2.1 and slightly creeping up.
