lynparza
my dad failed zytiga and xtandi- he has a somatic BRCa 2 mutation and they are switching him To lynpraza- I am a nervous wreck and just wondering if anyone has a positive experience with a parp - he’s 81 some normal heart issues that are stable- he has bone mets and the last two Years they were stable

How does Lynparza work?
I am brca2+ and 3 months into
Lynparza
. Stopped Zytiga, continuing ADT. I generally tolerate meds ok, but am finding this one v toxic. As I understand it, the brca2 gene mutation is in all cells, not just cancerous ones.

lynparza
His MO is starting him on
lynparza
and told him to go ahead and d/c xtandi and will continue with eligard shots every 3 months. Is it typical to d/c xtandi at this time since he showed radiographic progression while on xtandi/eligard and is now MCRPC? Thanks

Tripple therapy - ADT+Lynparza+Xtandi
I just started
Lynparza
in addition to Xtandi and Loupron. I don’t have a BRCA mutation, but I was told that
Lynparza
may be beneficial regardless. I finished cycle of Jevtana (7 infusions) and Xtandi. My PSA was 0.74, but now it has increased to 2.3. All other tretments and history are in my bio.

Lynparza - warning!
Perhaps stopping
Lynparza
on March 26th would make a comeback still possible.
If you are on
, or I guess even worse,
Lynparza
+ additional hormone therapy (steroids are know to lower lymphocytes as well) please do not rely solely on monthly test results.

lynparza / olaparib
hi everyone- my dad had progression to chest wall and his hip on ibrance after about 14 months on it so he switched to
lynparza
/ Olaparib for MBC in October of 2023. He had a pet scan on 1/29 that showed a complete metabolic response.

LYNPARZA Nausea…. Any solutions and does it last?
I started
Lynparza
two weeks ago and now am frequently nauseous. My doctor prescribed zofram for that, and it helps a little but not that much. Does this nausea get better with time? Any solutions? I have thrown up every few days.

Hi, Im new here! Stage IV Ovarian Ca champion
I have been on
Lynparza
for about 6 months. I was first put on Zejula and it dropped my platelets and my numbers dangerously low. I had to get platelet and blood transfusions. Then they switched me to
Lynparza
. Im at the year mark for being NED and scared to death every single day.

deciding whether to do pluvicto with hemoglobin around 8
Bone pain improved on
Lynparza
, but new lesion on bladder wall developed that is now causing bleeding so they had to go in and cauterize some bleeding vessels as a bandaid. On Eliquis for DVT. Hemoglobin hovers around an 8 after multiple blood transfusions.

slight CEA Elevation
hi everyone- my father has MBC and is currently on
Lynparza
/ Olaparib to target the BRCA2 gene mutation. He has been on it for 9 months and had a scan that showed complete control over his breast cancer on May 21st (not too long ago at all).

lymphedema from prostate cancer, any advice on how to manage?
Since being on the
lynparza
in January both sides have swelled up as well as scrotum and everything else below the waist. He was told it was from the lymph nodes effected by cancer in the pelvis and abdomen.

Hair, brows and eyelashes!
But in mid Feb I had to start
Lynparza
and Avastin (Bev). About two weeks ago I noticed my lashes are falling out waaaay faster than they should normally even though I’m using a topical (Grand Lash) that is supposed to help them grow. This is so discouraging.

PALB2 genetic defect-Lynparza
Oncologist recommends starting
Lynparza
in a month or two after side effects of chemo mitigate (edema, fatigue, blood clots in surface vessels in arms). My question: has anyone here taken
Lynparza
and what side effects? I still work full time and worked through chemo. Want to continue working.

Lynparza for bone/liver mets - success?
I will be switching from Enhertu (was on Enhertu for a year) to
lynparza
/ olaparib. Has anyone had success with a parp helping get rid of bone/ liver metastasis for stage 4 breast cancer? Or keeping things stable? And if so, for how long? Thanks for any info and/or experiences.

Heading down hospice road too…
Next step was
Lynparza
(olaparib), started January 5 which left him a zombie, unable to eat, drink and it severely dropped his hemoglobin. He ended up in the hospital after 3 weeks on it for a blood clot in his leg and blood transfusion so olaparib was stopped.
