Docetaxel
How long does it take
Docetaxel
to make a difference in a psa if it works? Does it take a few cycles?

End of chemo and CT scan result.
Hi guys, I completed my
Docetaxel
(6×) chemo last month, and thereafter did a CT scan. My bone mets are inactive and no new ones were found . I have osteoplastic formations on there where Ga 68 psma- pet / ct scan suspected mets in May 2021 with no signs of danger of fracture.

Docetaxel , thank you for your Service
Well the PSA is creeping back up into the low 5's , last bone scan showed some spreading , so we have determined that
Docetaxel
is no longer doing the job , so we are switching over to Jevtana , great name , hoping for the best , so Cabazitaxel it is , if anyone else is taking this fine poison into

Docetaxel
Can any of you tell me did you take prednisone though your whole time on chemo or just a few days after each cycle? I know some men take it throughout some don’t !! Would love some advice for my husband.

Some questions answered, some answers questioned, and Chemotherapy scheduled.
Cabazitaxel is ordered and we should know this week if the insurance will cover it, if not we will put
docetaxel
in ASAP. We should be able to treat this week or next."

Some good news for a change!

Docetaxel
My husband will be starting chemo
Docetaxel
? What can he expect? I’m getting very anxious feel as though options are getting smaller. Is this type of chemo usually effective? 🙏🏻🙏🏻😭😭💙💙. I asked the Oncologist how long he will be on it? His response was a long as we can.

Gastro intestinal issues
Have any of you experienced Gastro issues with
Docetaxel
. My husband feels so bloated, feels like he’s not emptying out all the way, not passing gas. His Oncologist told him try gas x and miralax. He still feels very uncomfortable.

Honokiol, a natural plant product, inhibits the bone metastatic growth of human prostate cancer cells
Honokiol was shown to inhibit the growth and depress serum PSA in mice harboring C4-2 xenografts in the skeleton and the combination with
docetaxel
showed additive effects that inhibited further growth without evidence of systemic toxicity.

Advice /Experience with AMG 160
Or do you think chemo would be better option (did okay with
docetaxel
side effects but it did not resist cancer growth for too long). Thank you, Lowbed

Keytruda failing, feeling desperate, advice needed quickly
He did very well on
Docetaxel
three years ago and she said she would give it to him again. Could that possibly shrink some lymph nodes? Third option is possibly a BAT trial. She wants his decision tomorrow about the trial. We don’t have long to wait in between treatments.

PEACE1 - the advantage of combining docetaxel and abiraterone in men newly diagnosed with high volume metastatic PCA (update)
I promised I'd update this as more info came in. The lead investigator, Karim Fizazi, presented a chart comparing the overall survival in men originally diagnosed with high volume (≥4) distant metastases and treated with both medicines. Their overall survival increased more than with either alone. https

Onto Docetaxel
Hi all After radiation to help with the increasing bone pain, my dad’s oncologist is suggesting chemo (Doce) and it begins next week. He’s already been through Xytiga and Xtandi and so he’s late to the chemo game and not happy about it. I know a lot has been posted on this but I’m having a hard time

What is the optimal length of time for taking Xgeva?
Spouse21's profile, which shows continued stability post-
Docetaxel
, which ended in May, 2020, a year and a half ago when he got his 10th infusion. So he's gotten decent mileage from chemo so far.

Thursday 9/9/2021 was D for Decision Day--Locked and Loaded for Chemotherapy
We talked about
Docetaxel
and Cabazitaxel. He said he would lobby for Cabazitaxel. PSA readings have always been volatile, but the last three months seem out of control.
