If you did Cabazitaxel before docetaxel, then let me know what your experience was like.

I know Cabazitaxel comes after Docetaxel.

Agree How about Quality of life ? Does Cabazitaxel improve Quality of life in compare to docetaxel ?

"peripheral neuropathy, peripheral edema, alopecia, and nail disorders were more frequent with D75...Cabazitaxel and docetaxel demonstrated different toxicity profiles, with overall less toxicity with C20."

Why do you ask? No one in his right mind would give you Jevtana first. You would lose your salvage for no benefit.

For us it was an insurance issue. We were told insurance would cover docetaxel treatment before cabazitaxel.

I had asked about cabazitaxel. His reply was insurance authorizes docetaxel first. His treatment suggestion was docetaxel first.

If I remember the alphabet correctly, then C should come before D.

Good Luck, Good Health and Good Humor.
