Hey everyone I haven’t posted lately but I keep track everyday. I hope everyone is staying safe. Docetaxel just not getting it done for me, numbers keep rising. If anyone knows of any trials for Lutetium coming up on the east coast could you let me know. This virus WILL come under control and we have to stay vigilant. Stay safe.

Second-line chemotherapy Cabazitaxel would be approved for you if Docetaxel is not working. You could ask about switching over.

Have you had a biopsy checked for "actionable" mutations and to see if you have neuroendocrine differentiation? Knowing that could help you know what you are dealing with and the best way to treat it.

I hope you’re able to find a treatment that works. Did your onco give a reason why it’s not working?
