Provenge is Next
Saw my Onc this morning and said
Provenge
is in the horizon for me. PSA is up to 1.6, up from 1.1 three mos ago. Although my latest CAT and Bone scan were stable, he suspects there are microscopic cells becoming resistant. This is why he wants to initiate
Provenge
or Xofigo.

Can I do Provenge with Zytiga?
Could I do
Provenge
with zytiga??? I want to do all I can to beat back this cancer, but at the same time I want to get as much use out of each treatment as I can before giving up on it.

Next step in treatment or no changes yet?
I was up for the Yervoy in Dynamo trial in 2016 but after
Provenge
my psa lowered. If its time for more treatment I would like to find the trial that currently offers the most promise. Any good ideas? Larry Dx 3/15 in Tulsa.

Screw Checkmate 650 - the “trials” of trials!
Last time I updated on my husband he had resumed chemo, was going to try one more round before traveling to St Louis for
Provenge
at Siteman Center, and then I as hopeful to get into the reformulated Checkmate 650, which was stopped due to unacceptable toxicity levels...I definitely get why now!

Decision time on Tuesday morning after progression shown in scans
., so we are looking mostly at bone issue. my concern is
provenge
will not attack the bone mets as well as Radium 223.

Ebb & Flow...to eat or not to eat. Crazy diet, rising PSA, consistent weight, and what's next? (on the menu of treatments)
My weight has stayed consistent for 6 years of treatments with very little fluctuation (through Radiation, Chemo,
Provenge
, H.I.F.U., Lupron, Xtandi, Xgeva, etc.

Scans look great, next step Provenge and holding off on 2nd line hormone therapies
She said that afterwards she does not want us to jump right in to a second line hormone treatment such as zytiga or xtandi but rather see how long he can benefit from lupron and
provenge
. Thoughts? I'm thrilled that his scans look good and that he qualifies for
provenge
!

In the summer of 2017 he had the
Provenge
treatment. By Christmas his PSA was 8. The PSA started to rise and he was treated with Xtandi. The bone Mets continued to March along so he did 6 treatments of Xofigo in 2018.

Second opinion at Cleveland Clinic... different treatment plan
She said if his scans don't show any disease progression than he'll be a perfect fit for
Provenge
and that afterwards we'll not move on to Zytiga or Xtandi but rather will stick with Lupron as she isn't convinced that he's failed it.

Moving forward with treatment: Xtandi and Provenge
So when I mentioned the latest results about
provenge
, he was quick to admit that I actually knew more about the latest prostate research than he does. (Thanks largely to you all!)

Failing Lupron? What's next?
Provenge
? Any insight you may have is greatly appreciated! Also, when my dad was diagnosed his PSA was 257 with only a single lymph node outside the prostate impacted. Since he is considered oligo metastatic, would targeted radiation be a viable treatment option?

Provenge
The Good Lord and
Provenge
apparently did the trick. Scan results showed zero cancer anywhere. Pissing normally.
