Experiences with

Trelstar

I have been on trelstar for 8 years and was wondering if anyone else has been on it. I have been undetectable at <.006 and now my psa is rising to .014. Maybe trelstar is losing its touch. Anyway I am doing a psma tomorrow.

Prescribed Apalutamide plus Trelstar in February, 2023. Ceased being effective in April, 2024. Recently began Radium223 (Xofigo) treatment. Not sure if I will continue with Xofigo.

Apaludamide/Trelstar combo lowered PSA to 0.60. Began to climb again April this year and Xofigo was suggested. I've now completed 3 of 6 treatments. Told Xofigo isn't to reduce PSA by my MO yet PSA began to decline.

I am currently being treated with Erleada and Trelstar with diminishing effect, PSA having risen from 0.30 to 4.37 March to July this year. PSA has begun to decline somewhat over last 6 weeks, first to 3.97, then 3.20. Will see what it is later today following the blood test.

February, 2023 prescribed Apalutamide plus Trelstar. Ceased being effective April of this year.Recently began being treated with Radium223 (Xofigo) but not sure whether I want to proceed further. I'm told Xofigo may add 2-4 months of life.

I would like to know, if it’s beneficial to take calcium 1200 mg with 1000u D3 for someone who is on trelstar, xtandi and completed radiation. Dexa scan shows osteoarthritis. Stage 4 also with pacemaker. I am asking specifically about calcium, I am aware of D3 studies .

I'm on Trelstar and my PSA is < 0.04. In March of this year I started taking Erleada. The side effects from both drugs have been minimal, some hot flashes and fatigue. Two months ago my doctor started me on Xgeva. The first dose I felt no ill effects, but the next dose kicked my butt.

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?

Can anyone shed a little light on Trelstar? Thanks

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?

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 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.

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

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.

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

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!!

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.

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

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.
