Stage 4, Chemotherapy failed, liver brain and bone mets
When he was diagnosed it had left the prostate and gone to the lymph nodes so we have done the hormone therapy including zytiga and then chemotherapy with
docetaxel
, which did nothing but accelerate the cancer to everyones surprise. At that point it was under fairly decent control.

Effect of Covid on 2020 UK PCa stats.
Other changes included an increased use of EBRT with hypofractionation and reduced use of
docetaxel
chemotherapy in men with hormone-sensitive metastatic PCa (413 versus 1,519) with related increase in the use of enzalutamide.

Lu PSMA treatment updates
My PSA was at 49 following
docetaxel
treatment in July, but began to rise. After starting aberaterone, it stabilized at 100 for three consecutive readings. Comparison of my Axumin and PSMA PET scans showed no discordant disease. I got my first Lu PSMA treatment at UCLA on November 12.

What does recent biopsy mean positive for NKX3.1?
Any suggestions for future tests & treatments/trials (currently infusions of
Docetaxel
+ Carboplantin every 3 weeks for possibly 3-6 more infusions)?

Chemo (Docetaxel) not working 76 YO
He started
docetaxel
on October 2021, His PSA was ~ 20 in October 2021, now today’s (3-Dec-2021) PSA test shows it is 98. This is after 4 infusions. Does this mean
Docetaxel
is ineffective? Or do we have to give it more time before we see good results? Please help. Thanks.

Docetaxel - Number of sessions in SOC
Docetaxel
- Why the difference in SOC between UK and Canada? Apparently the SOC in UK is 10 sessions. It's 6 sessions in Canada (and US, I think). Anyone know why the difference and any trials that show which is most beneficial? Thanks.

Chemo with docetaxel?
One specialist has proposed starting chemo with
docetaxel
. My PSA recently rose to 38 from 27 and the stereotactic radiation I had in Cyprus last May (2021) for left and right side abdominal lymph nodes appears not to have worked. I will be 78 at my next birthday, 15 July 2022.
