My first post concerning APC
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.

1/2 way through Xofigo with Apaludamide increasingly ineffective. PSA is declining. MO tells me Xofigo not the cause.
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. From 4.27 early June, to 3.97 in July and 3.20 this month (within testing margin of error?).

Xofigo anyone?
My oncologists team suggests
Xofigo
/Ra-223 as a next step, with a possible continuation with Pluvicto later on. Has anyone had
Xofigo
for only bone metastasis? What was your experience ? Were you able to function between the four/six sessions? How fatigued were you?

Cancer takes another brave man
He was so strong tried so hard, 2 clinical trials radiation, Zytiga,
Xofigo
, lupron for the entire time. Finally at age 65 his body could take no more, he lost over 40 pounds, no energy, last scan showed mass on pancreas, more than likely prostate cancer.

Cancer Turned Aggressive?
Then they want to try
Xofigo
or a different chemo. My dad is bummed. He thinks his prostate cancer is turned aggressive and is losing hope. Anyone else out there had similar experience and can offer some hope that there is something that will still work. His PSA never rose this rapidly before.

Xofigo Headaches
I had my first round of
Xofigo
and began experiencing intermittent headaches throughout the day. MO is puzzled but Nuclear Medicine mentioned headaches as a possible short term side effect. Would love to hear from you all on your experience going through
Xofigo
treatment. Happy Thanksgiving !

My 80 year-old dad with MPCa, broke his leg and now seems to be giving up. Advice on best anti-anxiety meds desperately needed.
His leg was healing slowly, and due to his broken tibia and fibular, the consultant had to postpone his
Xofigo
treatment as that would prevent the leg break from healing properly. He had been on abiraterone and pred but his PSA had been rising rapidly. Hence the plan to start
Xofigo
.

Provenge (only) - impact on overall survival
Tall_Allen mentioned adding xofigio for better results, but I haven't had a chance to discuss
xofigo
with my doctor yet. I'm on triplet therapy, chemo part finished last May. Became mCRPC last September.

Is there hope despite the pain? Is Cabometyx worth it?
We're currently on
Xofigo
round 4 (reduced mets by 50% but still a lot of pain), Keytruda round 4 and Cabo (cabometyx) holiday. He takes Oxycodone and ibuprofen for pain (but the ibuprofen seems to be hurting this stomach lately). We're looking into euthanasia (no rush but best be prepared).

Full circle with this disease
Start Xgeva and
Xofigo
2023. PSA back at 105 November 2023. Start 10 rounds of Docetaxel and PSA starts dropping again. After first treatment PSA drops to 62 then 17 and then 5. Currently on 4th round and I am very happy that I am responding to Docetaxel again. I am planning on doing 10 treatments.

Post triple therapy options?
I've read some of the posts on this, and it seems like
Xofigo
can stop the bone tumors from growing, but it doesn't eliminate them. Happily, it is available here in Ottawa. With thanks .... A very quick recap: Diagnosed in 2013, started with "active surveillance".

Medicare Advantage vs. Medicare+Medicare Supplement
So I'm working on changing treatment from chemo to
Xofigo
(Radium-223) Please share your experience/knowledge regarding chemo or
Xofigo
coverage with Medicare+Medicare Supplement+stand alone drug plan.

What next after Docetaxel...?
Xofigo
was ruled out based on my previous experience with Lu 177 and actual weak lab data. I elected to take a chance with Xtandi, probable another short term failure.

Treatment after Lu /Pluvicto?
Also, I understand that
Xofigo
yields better benefits at this stage (low volume) but they are advising against. I'm also wondering about Actinium as his tumors are PSMA avid. Thanks for anyone with experience to share!
