Experiences with

Trelstar

Can anyone shed a little light on Trelstar? Thanks

After 2 years of Trelstar my husbands PSA is now 2. He had RP in 2011, with PSA 32,followed by IRT. No symptoms at all now, no sideeffects from ADT which took PSA to 0. Small rise in blood pressureHas anybody survived for a lenghty time adding a new ADT drug? Should he have chemo?

My urologist changed my eligard injections to Trelstar without my knowledge. It was given subq instead of IM as prescribed. Is that a problem?

He has had Trelstar injections for 2 years now and PSA in August was zero, but now apparently around 2 checked by his GP. He has an appointment with his specialist in February. He feels fine without any pain and is exercising a lot. Can PSA bounce during ADT?

Has anyone found a good supplemental plan which covers more than 66% of Trelstar ADT shots? The insurance I am losing covered 75% of a $2600 cost. The best I have found to replace it is 66% of 2900+ dollars.

On trelstar and Xtandi just over 3 months. Just got first psa since this regimen 0.12. Radiation IMRT to begin in a week. Is this psa okay, will it decrease after radiation?

Has anyone used this combination? My oncologist is thinking of this. I'm th liking of Pluvito. Had PMSA scan that showed multiple Mets on spine , ribs, pelvis and femurs.

A there any problems.Iam gleason 9and met with 45 radiation treatments.Also on Trelstar.

For my second ADT treatment my doctor wants to switch to Trelstar. From what I read it sounds like Eligard and Trelstar are very similar, same side effects. Doctor also wants to add Erleada. After checking my drug plan the cost of the Erleada is exorbitant!!

.- 2020 - Zytegia just discontinued - lifetime Eligard then Lupron then Trelstar Scans this week and visit with oncologist. What is next?

Should he take Trelstar shot only (without Bicalutamide or Enzalutamide)? When he becomes castration resistant in the future, I'm afraid he won't have many options because of his age and health condition.

They were also doing Trelstar injections every 3 months. In Dec 2021 the oncologist started him on Zytiga/Prednisone. At the end of Jan and into the beginning of Feb he had radiation done to his lymph node in the pelvic area. They did a PSA reading in March and it was 9.00.

I had 8 weeks of radiation and two years trelstar in 2016. PSA undetectable thru spring 2021. Rising PSA. Bone scan and AXUMIN found three bone Mets in sternum. Treated with spot radiation. PSA still on the rise after treatment. PSMA scan found numerous other small bone mets in spine and ribs.

was explained I am a perfect candidate for treatment but shortage - they mentioned February 2023 for Pluvicto - still waiting PSMA reveals shoulder - left femur no organ involvement as of December 12th Metastatic as of April 2019 Will have Trelstar injection January 20th - this is my only treatment

Drugs in this class come in long-acting injectable forms that include Lupron, Eligard, Zoladex, Trelstar, and Firmagon and a new oral form called Orgovyx. 2.1 Hormone therapy “Hormone therapy” is a broad term used to describe any type of therapy that blocks testosterone production or action to treat

I still receive an injection of Trelstar every 3 months and am currently taking the chemo drug Lynparza. Thankfully I have no bone pain and PSA scan shows no change in 1 year for minor lesions in liver and spine.

I had a RP in 1999 and PC under control for 20 years through Lupron, Casodex, Radiation, Chemo infusion and Trelstar. In 2020 PSA went up to 25 and started Zytiga and PSA went to 126 immediately which was when I started Chemo.

I am for ADT. I never see it mentioned here. I got boobs, belly, and butt + hot flashes, mainly at night.

My first injection 3+ months ago was with Lupron. When I got my second injection last week I was given Trestar. The PA said it was a common thing to interchange the two due to costs of the drug or availability at the time. Is it indeed a common practice and are there any cons with this practice?

Why is Trelstar (triptorelin) so rarely prescribed in the US? It appears to be the first choice agonist in the UK.
