Hi, can anyone help? Hoping to hear from anyone with experience in next treatment/step after docetaxel failed and Xtandi failed? Or places for further consults? Dear husband Barry first failed docetaxel (5 treatments), and then Xtandi failed after 6 weeks, PSA rising. Still on Lupron, continuing Xtandi for now. Diagnosed last August with PC with extensive bone mets, PSA was 49. It initially went down, then went up after second chemo treatment (he had 5 treatments).
I admit this is scary -- I didn't think the cancer would become resistant this fast. He's still feeling okay, exercising. Scans are scheduled next week, I think biopsy and genetic testing will come. I feel I really need the group's collective experience. Not sure if MO will recommend carboxitaxel (Jetvana) or something else.
Other options, or trials? Any ideas for places for further consults? Telephone conference with MO scheduled next week after scans. Thanks all!!!!
