How long before FDA approves Nubeqa for doublet?

The FDA has accepted a supplemental new drug application (sNDA) seeking the approval of darolutamide (Nubeqa) in combination with androgen deprivation therapy (ADT) for the treatment of patients with metastatic hormone-sensitive prostate cancer (mHSPC). The sNDA is supported by data from the phase 3 ARANOTE trial… If approved, this would expand the indication for [darolutamide] in patients with mHSPC to include [darolutamide] both with and without chemotherapy.

I am taking Nubeqa with Eligard (Lupron). No chemo. I was told my IMRT is a substitute for chemo.

Interesting. I'm doing IMRT now. Are you on Medicare? And did you get pre-approval from your insurance, private or otherwise.

I have Medicare including part D and a supplemental plan from United Healthcare (AARP). I applied to the Bayer Patient Assistance Program. They send me Nubeqa for free.

Thanks, I'll check it out. I assume there's income limitations of some sort.

That would be great. The side effect profile seems better but husband couldn’t do this as on doublet for meta cancer. Though he seems ok with Erleada. More options always a plus.

An additional arrow in our quiver is always a good development. Hope this happens.
