Docetaxel again

[JNunes]

So, my dad has blood work again, and PSA continues to rise, from 300 to 700, after stop Xtandi.

He's going to start docetaxel, again, after having already done it in 2020.

Has anyone here taken docetaxel more than once?

Thanks.

I'm doing a 1st round of docetaxel, but know someone who went to cabazitaxel when his PSA climbed a few months after docetaxel

Hello

I started Taxotere on 1-27-2021 for 6 infusions. Finished on 5-12-2021. PSA dropped from 22 to 3. Went on Zytiga +Prednisone on 9/27/21 when PSA started rising. PSA rose to 56 by May 24,2022. Started Taxotere again. After 3 infusions PSA went from 56 to 33. Just had my 4th infusions 2 days ago. I am a believer…….will take all 6 infusions for a total of 12 over 20 months.
