Hi,
My dad (74yo) has developed resistance to Xtandi after 1year of success. now his PSA is 11 and his Dr is suggesting to just continue on Xtandi, and wait until there are symptoms to start chemo (for now he is chemo naive and never had abiraterone)
anyone had good outcomes from some Tx after Xtandi resistance that is not chemo?
Im thinking provenge (sipuleucel-t) or one of the PARP inhibitors (if BRCA+) as alternatives before chemo, but seems they re indicated after having tried chemo, my understanding is that this order maybe due to high cost and not nevessarily patient outcome, so maybe if cost wasnt an issue is it worth pushing for provenge?
Thank you very much
