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.

Types of radiation. Which is best for pelvic bone mets?

Docetaxel

Psa Jumps, but no signs of a failing sytem....
Because of the high volume (CHAARTED, STAMPEDE) ADT combined with 6 rounds of
docetaxel
, first treatment in July 2020. PSA level declined to 4.4, ALP 160. After the 6th treatment my PSA slightly increased to 5.0, ALP 170.

Post Docetaxel treatment plan
My father completed his 6 rounds of
Docetaxel
and responded really well and tolerated it quite well at 75 years old with the exception of horrible taste changes.

Update after 3rd Lu177
However, the latest F18 PSMA pet scan showed increased number and psma avidity of skeletal mets 😢 We have tried Zytiga,
Docetaxel
, back to Zytiga and latest is Lu177. Along with Xgeva and Eligard/Lupron all throughout since diagnosis in 2018. No genetic mutations when blood was tested 2yrs ago.

chemo experiences
I will be starting chemo for the first time with carboplatin/
docetaxel
next week after recovering a bit from radiation therapy to shrink the prostate. Can others tell me of their experience with this treatment? They will also give me CSF (Zarxio). Age 69. Reside in the Pacific northwest.

Suggestions on next step of therapy
I am concerned that if the
docetaxel
worsens my neuropathy I will lose what ambulation I currently possess. Is carbazitaxel ever approved without prior
docetaxel
use? It supposedly has less of the neuropathy side effects. Provenge is another option. Xofigo also, although my pain level is minimal.

PT-112 study
Ok, after many standard of care options (Lupron,
docetaxel
, Xtanti, Xofigo) and 2 clinical trials, this one looks like a good next step. My PSA has ballooned up to 175, but I am stills mostly asymtomatic with Mets in 4 bones.

PSA increase after docetaxel treatment
After the first
docetaxel
treatment in July, my PSA level reached a level of 14.7, ALP 170. After the 5th treatment my PSA decreased to 4.4., ALP 160. Unfortunately last week (4 weeks after the 6th and last cure) my PSA increased 0,6 nmg to 5 again. The ALP also rose slightly to 171.

Diagnosed 2008, RP same year, followed by salvage radiation in 2012, then Chemo (
