Still Confused
Is there any benefit to dosing
Xgeva
at 90 day intervals, vs the usual 4 week intervals. Everything I read seems to indicate " useless if not given every 4 weeks".

Xgeva
; Lupron life sentence. No supplements after anti-neuropathy supplements did nothing awhile back. Gets Vitamin D from sunshine, not out of a bottle.

Hi everyone I have been on treatment now for 3 years for MBC, I have bilateral lobular her2+ with mets to my spine, ribs, hips, long bones and my peritoneum. I am stable and still on my 1st line of treatment which is Palbociclib 75mg, letrozole, denosumab and zoladex. Because of low neutrophils I am

Great appt with oral surgeon re ONJ
He recommends that I stay off
Xgeva
, and prescribed a mouth wash for me to use twice a day. He thinks that it will help the small area of exposed bone will sluff off and heal, and has me coming back in two months. The rest of my mouth looks good. I'm fine with this plan.

Second Opinion?
They shrugged it off every time I mentioned it saying, your psa is steady, you're on
xgeva
(maintenance dose every 3 months) so we don't suspect it's your mets.

Schedules & Doses
After consultation, I went to the infusion lab and the technician met me with two injections (Lupron and
Xgeva
). I accepted the
Xgeva
and refused the Lupron, per my MO’s instructions.

Will Start Xeloda Soon
When Ibrance, Fulvestrant,
Xgeva
stopped working after 6 mos. of treatment, next were 6 weekly (3 on / 1 off) treatments of Taxol 150 mg which I learned today isn’t working. Next up is Xeloda. I am avoiding Piqray as long as I can. Are there any opinions or experiences on what to expect w/ Xeloda?

Gatorade, water, ?
Treatmen: 3 month Lupron (last injection December 20th, Abiraterone 1000mg, Prednisone 10mg,
Xgeva
(28 day cycle), Nupogen ( 2 treatments last Thursday and Friday), and Docetaxel (1 of 6 treatments two weeks ago). Except for WBC and platelet counts dropping, everything has been well tolerated.

Still here today
I'm still taking Zytiga and Lupron and my oncologist started me on
Xgeva
. Just saw my oncologist on Dec. 27th and my PSA is still undetectable. So far, so good.

possible to improve C Telopeptide Serum blood test for risk of osteonecrosis?
Hi, about 5 months ago I took myself off the
Xgeva
bone drug after being on it about 2 years or so. This was after learning I couldn’t be on it and also have the dental work done that I need to have done (cavitations etc).

what’s typically after taxotere?
My father did 10 days radiation to lumbar spine and pelvis, is doing ADT (zytiga,Lupron) as well the
xgeva
. He just did his first round of taxotere last week and we’re gonna get him through the 6 rounds, god willing. What’s typically the next step after chemo? Does he then do immunotherapy?

Looks like I've gone castrate resistant. How much trouble am I in?
After a year undetectable on Orgovix and
Xgeva
What are my options now? If second generation meds are needed, which has the least side effects? Xofigo? Pluvicto? Provenge?

Alk Phosphate going up after third Radium 223
So far we’ve done Docetaxel,
Xgeva
, Zytiga. Currently on Xofigo (Ra 223) it knocked the Alk Ph way down then after the third treatment it went up a few points. Has this happened to anyone? RO suggests doing 4th treatment then PSMA scan to see if there’s improvement.

What Now Pt 2
I'm asking myself Why The F@@k have I been destroying my body with a drug (
XGEVA
) that was supposed to prevent this? Is it time for a vacation from ADT, or time for a new Oncologist, or both?

Started Triplet Therapy this week, new doc, new (better) treatment plan!
"Fired" my local general oncologist whose plan was Xtandi, radiation, and
Xgeva
for me. She was against chemo in my case since the mets weren’t in organs. Contrast that opinion with the note from my new doc (the top prostate cancer specialist at CoH) that I've highlighted below.

Xgeva with zytiga, orgovyx and prednisone
Newbie to the group...curious for your experiences with
Xgeva
. I started it right away along with the other meds when my treatment began about 12 months ago.
