Experiences with

Casodex

Treatment so far: Casodex 150mg, reduced to Casodex 50mg (Sepetmebr 2016 - January 2019) Eligard + Casodex 50mg (January 2019 - March 2019); Eligard only (from March 2019 on) Radiation treatment in fall of 2021 - failed, PET CT in May 2022 showed numerous local and distant lymph node mets, inconclusive

Is it okay to wait 1-2 weeks to start Casodex in order to get a 2nd opinion on treatment / hormone therapy recommendations ? My relative just found out he is Gleason 9 and urologist wants to start him right away on Casodex and then Lupron shot in 2 weeks.

The MO gave us the treatment plan of - Casodex, Zoladex, Chemo (Docetaxel) and radiation therapy after that. With the help of this site, I know that early Chemo (6 rounds) is important.

She also said that if the Xtandi fails she might rec'd Casodex. The name was familiar but I didn't connect to bicalutamide until we got home.

Hello everyone throughout this World I am at present on Faslodex injections and have been for nearly three years. I do remember reading a post about the introduction of Faslodex in oral form being used by someone in the UK and was wondering exactly how many countries have adopted this procedure worldwide

Hei ladies!Im from Estonia. In April my CT showed ca 2,5 cm metastasis in my sternum peak. I was in Ibrance and letrozol almost 3 years, my small size two mediastinal lymph nodes persisted stable, last scan showed that one even decreased 1 cm!!!! Now my onc started with Faslodex , but Ibrance???

Well, Carboplatin was a disaster - it did nothing at all so I have effectively had 8 weeks of no treatment and my cancer went crazy. I understand that sounds super negative but that's how I feel right now. So, having a scan to prove the cancer spread matches the blood work (for example my CA15 was in

(Had 30 days Casodex and on Lupron)

I’m new to this site and have found it to be very helpful. I was diagnosed with MBC in 2015 and was treated mostly with Herceptin and Perjeta which was very successful. However I began to experience shortness of breath and in 2019 was diagnosed with Pulmonary Arterial Hypertension. A lung specialist

My PSA on Lupron and Casodex went from <.0.04 to .04 (Quest doesn't go lower than .04) in October and I expect that in February (my next blood test) it is probably going to rise again.

Hi fellow warriors, I have been on Letrozole and Ibrance for the last 2 years. I was diagnosed stage 4 de novo in late 2014. Mets were in liver only. I did Taxol, Herceptin and Perjeta for about 4 months, then Herceptin , Perjeta and Faslodex until 2019. I then was able to do just the Faslodex until

how long is casodex normally taken before zoladex ?

In the past, Lupron/Casodex has successful knocked the snot out of my PSA's. Dr. Lam has suggested that I do Orgovyx next time. I have a video chat with him on the 16th. Barring a pleasant PSA surprise I will need to start it PDQ*!!

I started Diphereline shot (ADT) and Casodex pill two weeks ago. I don't have radiation as my leakage is bad and I am 80 Any advise? Thank

with Casodex as next line of treatment. Any thoughts? Thank you!

Based on that expectation, cabergoline treatment Casodex (dopamine agonist; ) was employed to inhibit the pituitary production of prolactin. Prior to treatment, the patient’s CTC (circulating tumor cell) count=5.4; which is indicative of survival for ~21 months.

Any benefit taking AM or PM? Says may cause drowziness but also says may cause trouble sleeping. Starting this Wed. First Lupron Nov 1

And, does the Casodex/Lupron + Abiraterone (Zytiga) for 2 yrs + 8 weeks of EBRT sound like "enough" treatment for such an aggressive PCa?? Thanks for your help/guidance, I appreciate it.

He’s been having regular pet scans , all good, no new Mets, thank God Since PSA doubling month over month, on ADT and Casodex, time for something else? PSA still low considering. .19. seeing MO after PSMA , advise/ thoughts, TIA

PSA: 3.7 last year - 4.2 most recent TREATMENT SUGGESTED: Casodex - start daily pill this week Lupron - get 1st shot in 1 month, will get every 3-4 months Meet with Radiation oncologist in 2-3 weeks, most likely to 5x times week for 1 or 2 months.
