Docetaxel, Chemotherapy

Hi,

Have you tried Docetaxel before the Zytiga?

My dad did the Docetaxel (6 rounds) before the Zytiga and it killed a TON of the cancer. He was only on ADT for 2.5 years after the chemotherapy.

Wishing you the very best,

Karyn

I received docetaxel before Zytiga (actually started zytiga part way through the cycles). Also had a good response. Followed this with radiation.
