Progesterone Receptors in Prostate Cancer.
Abiraterone
acetate (Zytiga) inhibits CYP17A1 & thus prevents the conversion of pregnenolone and progesterone to downstream steroid hormones. Presumably, this leaves one with a surfeit of pregnenolone and progesterone. Might not be relevant, but it's worth noting.

Unusual Hot Flash Question
I have been on 3 month Lupron injections since March, 2017 and added
Abiraterone
in August. I am telling you, each time I get toward the end of my Lupron cycle, my hot flashes seem to increase in duration, intensity and frequency. It would seem that I should be experiencing the opposite.

Activity and Safety of Enzalutamide in Patients with mCRPC Previously Treated with Abiraterone Acetate Plus Prednisone for ≥24 weeks.
Overall, a better understanding of the biology of
abiraterone
and enzalutamide resistance is key to optimise the use of these agents. A recent study reported the conversion of
abiraterone
to the more active Δ4-
abiraterone
metabolite in mice and patients with prostate cancer [28].

Phase II randomized study of neoadjuvant and adjuvant abiraterone acetate+ ARN-509 for intermediate-high risk prostate cancer
Arm 1A gets Lupron +
abiraterone
acetate + apalutamide. Arm 1B gets Lupron +
abiraterone
acetate. Has anyone heard of this study? What do you think? I'm inclined to hit this hard. Are there other treatments that I should consider? Thank you all!

Trial study
It consists of a shot of Degarelix once a month in the stomach along with 4 pills of apalutamide with prednisone and 4 pills of
abiraterone
with prednisone once a day. Quick summery of my condition. Diagnosed in 2014 (age 47) PSA of 22. Biopsy showed 12 cores positive. Gleason 8.

Xofigo and Zytiga
I was wondering if folks on this site were aware that the European Medicine Agency (EMA) has indicated that Xofigo (Radium 223) should not be used with the medicine Zytiga (
abiraterone
acetate) and the corticosteroid prednisone.

Olaparib plus Abiraterone
Phase II study shows some benefit of combination therapy for mCRPC in patients with HRR. But not seeing anything on early administration of the combined therapy prior to being casteration resistant. https://www.practiceupdate.com/C/69314/56?elsca1=emc_enews_topic-alert

Starting Abiraterone/Pedizisone
Started taking
Abiraterone
/Pedizisone 2 days ago. Hardest part so far is standardizing my eating habits. Eat when I got hungry or grazed, I know bad, bad, bad. My mood is lifting now that I have started the new meds. Always a trying time changing my routine concerning my cancer.

Lupron lifespan and just a little more!
I am also taking
abiraterone
concurrently. I am also seeing a really good radiologist at UCSF who feels I need to get off both to allow for my PSA to get to .2 before any lesions will really show, since ADT kinds of leaves existing lesions dormant.

Hormone Therapy failing?
From reading the forums I had understood that most people see a fast drop in PSA after the hormone shot and his seemed to have risen and then only went down slightly, which may also be due to the
abiraterone
.

New to site.
I am presently have a rising PSA on Enzalutamide and will be going on
Abiraterone
/Pedizisone pills. I guess I need a place to vent with people who understand. My family support has been great. They have been there for me with all the ups and downs.

Is this an American Site
Why did they not try something else like
abiraterone
? or changed the hormone therapy.
