Following SOC here in BC Canada
Had
Radium
223
and it was okay but did nothing to the PSA. Cancer kept progressing and had to get targeted radiation to painful spots on ribs. Started chemotherapy again and had 7 cycles of Docetaxel then switched over to cabazitaxel for 2 cycles so far.

Dad with Stage 4 PCa - Need some words of wisdom...again please!
If he does qualify for
Radium
223
, is this a good treatment? I'm not naive as to the severity of his disease, but I always try and look for the light at the end of the tunnel....but if
Radium
223
does not help, are there many other options?

Moving on to hospice care
Radium
223
is out of the picture for him as he is just not well and it would not aid his survival at this point. They suggested some radiation for the epidural lesion as the bone is encroaching on the spinal cord. Unfortunately he is not well enough to attend that.

suspected epidural tumour
His next step was
Radium

223
to help relieve some of that bone pain. Am I right to assume that would be out of the picture with an epidural tumour? Is there anything left for us to do here? I fear him getting this news as he’s been in such a state of depression since our last appointment.

Order of treatment?
Having waited for 6 weeks to have a biopsy and get the results for neuroendocrine PC (he didn’t have it) his oncologist has said he can either have another chemo (Cabazitaxel or Carboplatin) or

Chemotherapy or Pluvicto
I just completed
Radium
223
treatment. PSA has been doubling since I failed Zytiga. Last scans show progression. I am offered chemo or a trial with Pluvicto. The cancer is throughout my bones. What should I do. I have had chemo at the beginning of this journey and it worked then.

Enzalutamide any advice/tips for dealing with side effects
Abiraterone eventually stopped working and I was able to join
Radium
223
trial. Completed 5 of 6 cycles of
Radium
223
, then elected to stop since scans showed mets still progressing and bone pains was brutal (PSA has continued to rise and is now 113 as of August '23).

What should I expect at the end?
It was possible that he would be eligible for
radium
223
but his kidney function is severely impaired and he continues to have continual pain crises.

Could I try BAT to restore sensitivity to previously used antiandrogen treatments.
Once I finish
Radium
223
then I am only offered chemotherapy at this point.

Post triple therapy options?
Xofigo
Radium
-
223
. This seems to be specifically for bone mets, which is all that showed up for David's PSMA PET scan five months ago. And since then, he's been on the triple therapy. (Weirdly, no tumors were listed in the lymph nodes --- was that the Lu177-J591 still being effective?)

Can Radium 223 kill PCa in the prostate and can Docetaxel kill bone Mets?
I would appreciate if you could tell me whether
Radium
223
can kill PCa in the prostate and whether Docetaxel can kill bone Mets? Thanks.

Zometa with or without Radium 223?
Hi I have done 1 year with Zometa alongside Docetaxel and more recently
Radium
223
. I'm halfway through the
Radium
223
course but have been advised that after a year, Zometa has reached maximum effectiveness and should be stopped.
