Need suggestion PSA 878 after one month of 3rd Chemo
The initial plan was
Docetaxel
50mg/m2 in 100ml NS over 1hr -- 75mg over 2weekly. However, due to low platelet count and HB count, his chemo was pushed by 1 or 2 weeks. we had 3rd Chemo on 13 Jan 2021.

Consultant Meeting with Mum
He then talked about a chemo drug called
Docetaxel
. I asked him about Nintedanib combined with
Docetaxel
and he said that he didn't think it would add any benefits for mum. I just don't understand why he is so pessimistic about it helping.

Xtandi appears to be ineffective
I hear Cabazetaxel has a little less side effects than
Docetaxel
, what is your experiences out there? my Dad tolerated it well but no having taste made him so depressed. He loves to cook and loves to taste his food. PSA is up to 160.

Bone Marrow Failure After 2 Rounds of Ra223
After 9 rounds of
Docetaxel
(the last 9/2/20 and it really seemed to work) we started Ra223 on 11/20/20 with round 2 on 12/18/20. My blood counts tanked with platelets at 10 on 2/8/21.

Another stable guy from MA
The 10
Docetaxel
rounds over 7 months was a slog, but my guy's had stability for the 7 months plus 8 months post-chemo--15 months total. He does have manageable, but annoying, neuropathy from all that chemo even with cold mitts and socks.

What is considered Castrate resistant?
Originally his psa was 1400's, did 6 rounds
docetaxel
, lupron for about a yr. Which brought his psa down .02. Recently they added Xtandi because his psa was rising every month up to almost 4. Does this mean he is castrate resistant?

Diagnosed stage IV aged 50, still going 8 years later :)
PSA started rising quickly again, so after a PSMA PET scan in 2015, radiated a new tumour on spine, unfortunately that didn’t seem to help, so followed up with ADT in 2016 and
docetaxel
in 2017. PSA plummeted to 0.01 and stayed there for a year, so stopped again.

Ra223 Xofigo and Cabazataxel compared
Since diagnosis 2009 at 62yo, with inoperable Gleason 9, but with low Psa only 6, I had failed RP attempt in 2010, but has EBRT + 2 years ADT, then pause showing Pca progress so I am still on ADT, and had salvation IMRT to PG, Cosadex, Zytiga, 5 doses
Docetaxel
, all not stopping Pca progress hence move

Three clinical trial options after Zytiga fails
He’s 71, dx’ed nearly 3 years ago, and has already utilized Zoladex,
docetaxel
, and Zytiga and some targeted radiation. He’s had widespread mets since dx but largely feels pretty well (aside from Covid knocking him on his rear in October).

Are Anti-oxidants to be avoided with aCRPC?
I was getting vitamin C infusions to help with my immunity prior to my
docetaxel
infusions and have continued to get them the in-between weeks. TA mentioned anti-oxidants counter the ROS needed for cancer cell death.

When to do 'advanced' tests?
He has not yet had
docetaxel
(cancelled last year due to Covid) so I suspect that might be the next step at some point? Would any of these tests be of any utility in looking at that treatment option – or are they irrelevant to that decision?

Starting Docetaxel soon.
I will be starting chemotherapy (
docetaxel
) soon. The order was for chemo + prednisone. When I asked the Oncologist about the prednisone, he seemed confused and said ,"oh that is added to the chemo IV". I thought it would be in a pill form. Can anybody help me on this one?

hormone therapy and strength training
I've had chemo (6x
docetaxel
) and hormone therapy, for life. The chemo was not that bad , but my general physical condition, strength and endurance were seriously deteriorated. Where I used to regularly run 10-20 km, I could still jog for 1 hour at walking pace with difficulty.
