I will have

Resveratrol with Docetaxel [Taxotere]
Two days ago I posted a new study of "Curcumin with Docetaxel [
Taxotere
]". Here is another cell study that suggests synergy between
Taxotere
& a polyphenol. -Patrick https://www.ncbi.nlm.nih.gov/pubmed/28212547 Oncotarget. 2017 Feb 13. doi: 10.18632/oncotarget.15303.

Beginning a Trial
A spot opened for me in a trial for nanoparticles of
Taxotere
, CRLX-301. I will begin the infusions next week. The scans showed some progression, including bone mets. However, my PSA decreased from 32 to 28. The doc (at the trial center) said PSA was just a marker.

Lupron Almost Always Works but Is The Grim Reaper...But Here is a Case when Less is Better Than More
If Oligo ( 5 or fewer) go after the PCa again with radiation, which almost always fails because radiation selects for the most aggressive 5% of cancer cells which survive and go on to form tumors....or scans reveal more than 5 hot spots so Lupron is started with or without
taxotere
and the PSA goes <

Maybe Taxotere Is Not Such a Good Idea - The Sad Case of Tom Johnson
Tom seems to never have fully recovered from
Taxotere
- I still think
Taxotere
can permanently damage the immune system. Some say no evidence but if you look at clinical trials for Prostvac and other Immune Therapy prior chemo is a disqualification.

Prognostic factors for Docetaxel [Taxotere] in CRPC

Still have your prostate?
My initial treatment was 10 rounds of
Taxotere
followed with monthly injections of Lupron and Xgeva. I'm in remission now. Has anyone been through the same treatment, but has thier prostate removed.

24 Years and counting..........
I am presently getting (
Taxotere
) chemo injections every three weeks. Medications I have had -- Elgaed, Xgeva, Predisone, Delepain,Neupagen Y, Zytiga,Proveng, Xofigo. I did a group A clinical trial (no placebo) for about 5 months, but discontinued because of the side effects.

First time
I also had one session of
taxotere
. I am now on firmagon and Xtandi with a PSA of 1.4 but having lots of side effects. I can function well enough though and I am glad to still be here.
