Here's our story
Next step is the
Docetaxel
. Not sure if they will include prednisone, but I suspect they will. He will get 6 weeks of infusions, one every 7 days. All of his doctors are still stunned with what they see.

Zytiga or Docetaxel ??
I posted here in early August that my PSA had fallen to 2.33 from 16.51 in January, after 38 fractions of radiation + Cassodex + Eligard. In early October, my PSA has risen to 8.7 and a PSMA test has indicated several extra mets to bones and left shoulder. A small nodule in the left lung as well.

Debulk or not debulk, that is the question...
Again, no RCT showing benefit of close sequencing
docetaxel
and Zytiga yet. As of now, I'm thinking to get a 2nd opinion on other possible options but most likely will receive similar with a slight nudge depending on what type of doctor and school I will talk to.

PSA rising after 2 years on Eligard...options?
The PC was too widely spread for surgery or radiation so I was Treated with 6 rounds of
docetaxel
and am still on Eligard every 4 months. Also participating in the Titan (Apalutamide) Clinical Trial. 95% certain I am getting the real drug due to a very bad and persistent rash.

MO wants to pause Zytiga when PSA reaches 0
He had 6 cycles of
Docetaxel
(low dose) and is currently on Lupron alongside Zytiga. No mets so far, he only a few lymph nodes but they shrank with the chemo regimen.

Infection during chemo
My lovely wife and I are trying to understand more about the danger of infection while getting
Docetaxel
infusions. I had my first one last week and will have five more to go.

Happy anniversary - trick or treat
So I’ve had
Docetaxel
, Zytiga and 45 days of radiation, all in the hope that my cancer was oligometastatic (a fancy way of saying it has spread but not real far), and that it might be cured.

White cells
My baseline normal white count dropped to 2000 (total) 8 days after first
docetaxel
infusion. No surprise there. Is it worse with later doses?

25 Somatic Gene Mutations!
My dad, newly diagnosed with metastasized PC, has suffered many discomforts from
Docetaxel
and other medicines prescribed for treatment. Despite the blood clot in his neck, hives, extreme fatigue, neutropenia, bone pain, nausea....etc......his PSA came down from 1200 to 20.

Panther clinical trial abiraterone plus apaludamide
It continues to progress despite 6 cycles of
docetaxel
. Trying to read through the consent forms but would love to know if anyone has personal experience or knowledge that would help.

Docetaxel + Carboplatin + Radiation
Biopsy of the bone looks now like Squamous cell. Starting radiation. Finished my first cycle of chemo. Anyone experience getting all treatments at once?

Jevtana Time
I know this is first cousin to
Docetaxel
, which I just completed 11 rounds this year, following 6 in 2016 after Dx. Wondering who has used this chemo, and how much success you had with it. SE's seem close to
Docetaxel
, maybe not quite as severe. Thanks OTR

Advanced Hormone Sensitive Metastatic Prostate Cancer
Immediately on diagnosis I started chemical ADT (bicalutamide and goserelin implant) and
Docetaxel
infusions every three weeks (course completed yesterday). My PSA is now 0.08 and still falling.

Jevtana failed, next Lutetium-177
He had TURP, RT,
docetaxel
as first line. After the PSA started to increase he started Zytiga and had one year on it. He gets Turmeric since the diagnosis and since last month started to get BIRM as supplement. He has stable PSA of around 1-1,3 but liver mets were detected two months ago.

Docetaxel
, Cabazitaxel and recently Abiraterone all of which have failed although Enzalutamide did work well for around 20 months.

Side Effect? On chemo but unsure what this is?
I am currently undergoing chemo before surgery for BC. I have had three treatments of EC and am now on Docetaxol with pertuzumab and trastuzumab but since being on this (had 2 so far, another one to go) I have noticed a discharge. I stopped my periods when I was 46 and was put on hrt due to not being
