Since then I have seen 2 different MOs who agree on Eligard and
Abiraterone
, however one is suggesting Chemo as the third leg of treatment while the other feels we should wait until we see the response to the hormonal treatment.

Zytigia mechanism of effectivity
If ADT e.g lupron etc is keeping T low and PSA stable what is the added benefit of
abiraterone
? Is the objective of tx to keep T low, get T lower or is there something else which abi can do to help stop grow/spread. ? Thanks. Ps.Merry Xmas to all. Xx

Probiotic supplements vs. diet and fiber for adv. prostate cancer. This is a short summary of my three days of research.
Lastly, in the prostate cancer/bacteria link above, it says, "
abiraterone
blocks the production of androgens from bacteria" ... Does anyone know if Darolutimide (Nubeqa) blocks the production of androgens from bacteria?

Prednisone on Abiraterone withdrawal?
Does anyone one know how long to continue with Prednisone (5mg) after stopping
Abiraterone
. I assume it takes a while for the body to start making cortisol? Thanks

Emotional instability after stopping lupron and abiraterone
After an initial few months of positive improvements in every sector, my guy started into a mental health/cognitive decline to the point where he is now dependent on gabapentin he takes for other reasons in order to maintain any emotional stability. He says his short term memory is also getting worse

My PSA is now at 47 after a high of 160 and a low of 5 after starting ADT with Firmagon, Abiraterone and Prednisone about 9 months ago
I was put on Firmagon in January and my testosterone responded almost immediately to less than 7, but the PSA kept rising, so I was put on
Abiraterone
and Prednisone in March. The PSA went from 160 down to 5 within about 3 months.

Scan Results and Treatment Begins
My part D drug plan covers
abiraterone

abiraterone
.

Pleural effusion post second round(18 cycles) of Taxotere
PSA was rising on
Abiraterone
too after having failed Enzalutamide one and half year ago. Full history in profile. He was diagnosed with mild pleural effusion in lungs in PSMA PET scan after chemo. Fluid(about 700ml) was drained and cell blocks and tests did not find any cancer cells in fluid.

Abiraterone

PARP or immuno for BRCA2+ and NED
Will start
abiraterone
for four months possibly followed by olaparib for a relatively limited time, if side effects are tolerable The alternative is immunotherapy. Trying to figure out which is best to use (first). These treatments are approved for cancer at an advanced stage.

How common is Nocturia with PCa?
Is this caused by PCa,
Abiraterone
, Lupron or it is a post Radiation side effect? Also does it get better, any treatment advice that might help is greatly appreciated. Thank you all so much.
