Feeling very hopeless at this point.
He has been on doxetaxol, 2 times,
zytiga
, one clinical trial with keytruda, no result other than psa rising. Now on another clinical trial regeneron, now psa 571, scans were stable but now due again next week. On top of this, due to Xegeva, he has developed jaw necrosis.

Still true that using same scan type is preferable to changing scan type?
He's been stable since chemo with his current Eligard & Xgeva treatment--see full Profile for his record of Lupron, radiation,
Zytiga
(failed), Docetaxel at year five, followed by lifelong Eligard and quarterly Xgeva.

Real Nervous about Genomic Resuits, What type of Physician do I go to in NY who Specializes in Mutations w/ Advanced Prostate Cancer?
In reference to the mutations and reading about Neuroendocrine cancer, since I have been on Firmagon and
Zytiga
with Prednisone since 07/2022 . I’m worried.

Extreme sweats will they diminish; Zitiga is it worth it
Is the
Zytiga
with 5mg Prednisone worth it considering the side effects and, if I am reading things correctly, only extends Lupron effectiveness only about 6 months? Thanks for any insights.

New Developments in My Husband's PCA Journey
This was immediately followed by
Zytiga
with 5 mg prednisone. He recommends this ADT treatment until it fails in approximately three years. We consulted with two radiation oncologists (one in Hartford and one at Yale who specialize in Salvage RT for biochemical recurrence of prostate cancer.

How high must the PSA levels be before cancer can be seen in a CT scan?
Following the end of my treatment (radiation, lupron,
Zytiga
, prednisone) with curative intent back in May, my PSA has risen from undetectable to 0.09. As discussed on another thread this is not alarming at this stage since I still have a prostate as I never had surgery to remove it.

Prostate cancer morphed into NEPC
After 13 years of various therapies, the last few years included Lupron/Eligard,
Zytiga
, Xtandi. This kept the PSA low (around .2) and kept my MO happy. In 2021, I asked my MO if I should be getting a scan. He said with the PSA that low, nothing would show up.

8/4/23 Update questions for MO
To review, after 19 months on Lupron,
Zytiga
, prednisone, PSA increased on 1/23 to 0.253, then 0.309 on 2/21. Plarify scan showed only one active site in hip which was radiated. 4/4 PSA dropped to 0.24 which indicated the lesion was knocked out and I would be hormone sensitive and stay on

Is my cancer castrate resistant?
Would adding
Zytiga
be a good option? Should we rule out chemo?

testosterone finally moving up after Treatment.
Finally after 19 months of lupron and
zytiga
and 40 rounds of radiation my testosterone has hit 325. I do 3 month testing and it has held for 6 months. I can feel the difference and am not only doing more but my weight is falling off and glucose has a hard time going above 115.

Xtandi and feet swelling
One month since
Zytiga
and Preg discontinued Xtandi 2-80mg tablets 1x/day. Week 5 I began to experience serious bilateral ankle and feet swelling. So much so I am smashed into a 1/2 size larger shoe. Just bought sandals. If you experienced this problem what did you do?

Update On Eclipse Trial-another failure. Has LU-177 worked for anyone?
We briefly added 250mg
Zytiga
+ 5mg prednisone before starting Eclipse trial (LU-177 I&T) in June 2023. Beginning PSA was 3.3 and directly before fourth injection in August, PSA dropped to .25 Unfortunately, after fourth injection PSA was .30 and rising.

BP with abiraterone + prednisone, eplerenone, dexamethasone
Posts by Tall_Allan, tango65, and others explain the mechanisms by which abiraterone may increase BP, and how this can often be mitigated by increasing the prednisone dose (
Zytiga
literature instructs 5 mg/day if CSCPa and 10 mg/day if CRPCa).

DHEA-S
If I remember right he said he wanted to see if
Zytiga
was doing its job ? So the test results came in today . DHEA-S came in at <20.0 mcg/dl . Standard range is 33.6-249.0 mcg/dl . Has anyone here had this tested ? And what were your outcomes ? Thank You SemperFi , JJ
