Nubeqa anyone?

Hi, I'm in Stage Four PC since 2013. Original PC diagnosis was Nov. 1999. I've been on Lupron for years with add-ons of Casodex, Xtandi and Zytiga. Presently on Zytiga (1000 mgs daily). Along the way I have had Brachi, Prevenge and some blind clinical trials. Here is my question: my MOC is thinking of stopping Zytiga and switching me to Nubeqa. Has anyone had any experience with Nubeqa?

Thank You

I know a patient who also switched from Zytiga to Nubeqa even though he had metastases . In his case, he has had a stroke and seizures, so Nubeqa was approved because it doesn't cross the blood-brain barrier.

Why is your MOC is thinking of stopping Zytiga?

Congratulations on your 20 years of survivorship. 🏆🥇🎉. If you can get Nubequa I’d try it over Xanti.
