More Evidence Linking ADT for PCa to Adverse Neurocognitive Effects -Meta-analysis shows increased risk of dementia, Parkinson's, depression
The risk was even higher in men treated with newer androgen receptor signaling inhibitors (ARSIs), but the association was not consistent across the ARSI class: increased risk with enzalutamide (Xtandi) and apalutamide (Erleada) but decreased risk with
abiraterone
(Zytiga).

A Clinical Trial saved my Life ..12 years a Survivor of Advanced Metastatic Prostate Cancer, Stage 4.
Twelve years later, Alfred says: “
Abiraterone
has saved my life and I am grateful for that. But not everyone is as fortunate as I was to get on that trial and respond to the drug as well as I did. We need more treatments like
abiraterone
.

Need help to fight fatigue from Radium 223
Had 6 cycles of Chemo and then
Abiraterone
for 18+ months until it stopped being effective. Currently part of trial with Radium 223. Had 4 cycles already and 2 more to go. After this will likely have to switch to Enzalutamide and ADT.

PSA suppression
Incidentally, that phrase - rapid androgen cycling - brings to mind the work of Howard Scher [3] (2006) When
Abiraterone
and Enzalutamide were approved, I was briefly tempted. But however efficient they were at controlling PSA, the effects were transient for most men.

Radiation after triple therapy?
Finished triple therapy (6 cycles 85% docetaxel + 250mg
Abiraterone
with yogurt + 10mg Prednisone w/yogurt + Lupron (3 month) + XGeve monthly. After 3rd cycle, a CT scan identified a new 3rd bone lesion (L1). Original bone scan identified lesion on Pelvis and C4.

8/4/23 Update questions for MO
Switching from prednisone to dexamethasone before you give up on
abiraterone
3. Choose from and possibly combine: Taxotere, Xtandi, Xofigo, and Provenge. 4. Switch to xtandi or Casodex 5. Try docetaxel, which works by directly killing cancer cells, but can have substantial side effects, 6.

Severe cramps and ADT
Just wonder if anyone else found this connection between
Abiraterone
, chocolate and severe cramps? (or other foods that trigger the cramps)

Sudden Bone pain

Updated treatment plan for progressing MCRPC
I am still taking
abiraterone
and dexamethasone and it is not working, PSA has been climbing. My Question is, should I switch the
abiraterone
for enzalutamide. There is some evidence for switching these drugs if one is no longer working. Apparently the dexamethasone is not good for bone health.

Minimum PSA for GA-68 PSMA Scan
I have been on Eligard and
abiraterone
for five years and my PSA has always been <.05 ng/ml and my last test came back .05 ng/ml with all PSA tests performed at the same lab. My new oncologist wants me to have a GA-68 PSMA scan which seems premature on two levels.

Never get tired of annoucing I am STILL undetectable
I have had somewhat mor energy since we scaled back my
Abiraterone
dosage to 500 mg a day instead of 1,000 mg. Dr Tanya Dorff says stay the course, no additional combination drugs or trials for me. She says I am doing remarkably well.

More on abiraterone prices
My basic question is: Have some of you stopped buying
abiraterone
(generic Zytiga) through your Medicare Part D insurance provider and started buying
abiraterone
through one of the organizations like Good Rx or Cost Plus (Mark Cuban Co.)? Here, for example, is my situation.

Silly Questions??
2) Why do some advanced prostate cancer patients have NO Chemo, and go directly to ADT +
Abiraterone
+Prednisone, while others begin treatment with chemo and radiation? What are the deciding criteria ??

Supplements and self-care
I then added
abiraterone
and prednisone which has brought my PSA down to 1.4 in July and my last test this month it went up to 2.0 but I have read there can be a margin of error in the PSA test so I’m not too worried.
