Jevtana Time
MO has put me on
Jevtana
starting next cycle, 2 weeks from today. 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.

Jevtana failed, next Lutetium-177
His MO proposed
Jevtana
and we did it. But after second cycle, the mets got slightly bigger, so no good response. Now the MO recommends us Lu-177 as next treatment. He said it can be effective on liver and bone mets and may have less side effects than chemo.

Friend with advanced Prostate cancer
Was then treated with
jevtana
and psa climbed to 1000. Not sure of Gleason score. He sees his hematologist/oncologist tomorrow. That guy has already told my friend, Bob, and his wife that he has not had much success with immuno therapies. Are there treatments available for someone like this?

PSA stable but Cancer spread to liver
Doc recommended 3 cycles of
Jevtana
at first. And he said he is not taking PSA as a reference anymore, since it spread with stable PSA. Any one had such experience in the group? What could you recommend?

Chemo 18 dripping now. Good news on response.
Chemo 18 is 12 docetaxol and this is 6th
jevtana
. Stay the course, put next one off till 4 weeks for the Cornwall trip. The comparative bone scan showed marked decrease metastatic disease in right hip. Also on the ct many other spots were reduced.

Bone Mets and rising PSA
He's scheduled to get a port and start
Jevtana
chemotherapy next Thurs. He had docetaxel 7 treatments from Dec. 2016 to April 2017 and then he had Zytiga from Aug. 2017 to Feb. 2018 because it quit working and PSA has been continually rising since then.

What's my next line of defense?
This time we selected Cabazitaxel (
Jevtana
) along with prednisone; I would get 6 to 10 infusions, one infusion every three weeks.

PC treatments and liver cancer
I have been through the Zitiga, Xtandi and then
Jevtana
Chemo and i now have metastatic PC on my liver. The interesting point is others have reported similar situations after coming off these drugs. Oh yes my PSA sky rocketed also.

PSA still rising on 2 types of chemo treatments
So my father has now finished 3 rounds of
Jevtana
and carboplatin. His PSA has only gone up 1-2 points over the last 3 infusions, but today it went up 3 points. Not much compared to The doubling time before but I’m Still concerned if chemo is working or not.

Jevtana Not Working
My husband has completed five
Jevtana
treatments and had a CT and bone scan yesterday. The dr. called this morning to tell us the chemo is not working on his liver cancer. Has anyone else experienced this? I am curious about what the next treatment might be.

New Mets- Not good News
Not the news we were praying for😕 my fathers CT scan after 3 rounds of
Jevtana
and carboplatin to treat NEPC in the lymph nodes, we were hoping that the scans show shrinkage of nodes. Instead the CT scan showed multiple Mets to spine and pelvic bones(all new).

Passed on.
Tried Taxotere, then
Jevtana
, and was on carbo/
Jevtana
till he passed. We went to Sloan Kettering, Dana Farber, and Mass General. I had him all over! He was also transfusion dependent receiving weekly transfusions for over a year and a half. That’s about 100 blood transfusions.
