next steps-failing Erleada

hi all,

my father was diagnosed w stage 4 prostate ca may 2022. Gleason 9, psa 150s, diffusely metastatic (spine, lower/upper extremity, LN), genetic testing negative.

unfortunately his MO was not well versed on triplet therapy; he underwent 6 rounds of taxotere and started on Luperon q3 months. Nadir i believe was about 0.05?

numbers began to climb after about 1 year of Luperon; added Erleada. Now over the last 8 weeks psa doubling and tripling, at .97 currently.

Thoughts on next steps; trial of taxotere/jevtana?

I'm assuming switching ARI will likely not have a huge effect as it's all same/similar mechanism of action for cancer that's castration resistant now...?

Pluvicto (if even possible to get)...provenge?

- I do not see in your Profile. Does he tried Zytiga , Xtandi or Nubeqa. ?

- Pluvicto is actual good options as well

- Think about clinical trial if you want to keep pluvicto for future. Like AMG 509 , ARX 517 and FPI-2265 (225Ac-PSMA-I&T)

Many good options. I like some of the Xofigo combinations:

Or docetaxel+enzalutamide as in the PRESIDE trial:

Any clues from genomics?
