Now going into clinical trials for specific types of cancer, Alpha Tau’s technology shows potential for treating any solid tumor.
Radium 223,
Xofigo
? -or maybe they're using radium 224 instead of 223 due to patent issues?? I also recall seeing a clinical trial, I think in NY?, using Radium 223 in a similar way as LU-177 and AC223.

Advanced Prostate Cancer - Next Steps
I threw out the option of a combination of
Xofigo
and Lu177 to start, and then a combo of Lu177 and Ac225 in the future. He thought that was a valid option. So my question are; Has anyone done combinations of
Xofigo
, Lu177, Ac225, or other.

Indomethacin
Hi there, I’m still game to hear any off-the-Top-of-your-head questions that you’d pose after being told by both your local doc and your researcher doc at Duke that what you’ve got left to work with is Chemo, Provenge, and
Xofigo
.

G9 since 2005, zero treatment until late 2017, now multiple Mets lymph and skeletal. Have fail Xtandi, Lupron, Taxotere. Now Indomethacin
Could not go
Xofigo
,,,only good for skeletal, plus disqualifies for LU xxx However UCSF now tells me that second taxane disqualifies anyhow. What’s a man to do! PSA was at 400 at time of prescription. PSADT time of 5 weeks, extensive lymph and skeletal Mets.

Metastatic prostate cancer
They have included syberknife, xytegia, xtandi,taxotere,
xofigo
,and now cabazitnxel(jevtana) with carboplatin. I don’t know if there is anything else that can be done. Is there any one else out there in the same situation and if so what are you doing?

Verify then trust, not vice versa; energy issues
Well, today the doc gave us an overview of
Xofigo
, Provenge, and chemo, and told my dad to start taking Xtandi again, at a lower dose (he’d been taking 4 tablets daily, with some balance issues). Hmmm maybe the nurse mgr was just having a super bad day?

Help me ask
They apparently agree on the remaining options for my Dad: chemo, Provenge,
Xofigo
. It was a bummer to hear the onco tell me that Dr. A said we didn’t need to come see him now...we like Dr. A so much and I obviously had been feeling very hopeful that he might have something to offer us.

Xofigo (Radium-223)
Just wondering how many men have had
Xofigo
and if it worked for them. And if it worked, for how long? Our radiation oncologist has recommended this as our next step (as has Tall Allen). Wondering about side effects also - thanks!

Do not know what to think???
Doctor stopped the
xofigo
, he is going to try and get him in a clinical trial and also setting up chemotherapy training for us. Both of his doctors think the chemotherapy will be too hard on him. Urologist said he should get everything in order such as his will and ect.

Looking for data-
Yes I have bone and liver Mets- but this is second rechallenge with Taxotere after first in 2016- numerous treatments-
Xofigo
Xtandi Zytiga - You would think if taxotere is effecting cancer growth those levels would go down and not sharply increase. No pain- just chemo side effects.

Starting Radium 223 (Xofigo) next week
Having just finished a trial of carboplatin + docetaxel, I'll be starting
Xofigo
next week as a bridge to a pembro+ trial early next year. My latest PSA is 940, with no visible soft tissue involvement. I have a single-strand CDK12 defect.

Next Step
After my dad completes
Xofigo
, he will require a new CT scan and bone scan for staging purposes. If he has soft-tissue metastases, he might be eligible for the COMBAT trial. Alternatively, he might be a candidate for the VERU-111 clinical trial. My Dad has the somatic TP53 mutation.

Xofigo sent me to the ER
June 13th I had my 4th
Xofigo
infusion and over the next three days I grew weaker and more fatigued until Sunday night, I couldn't move. My muscles would not work in my legs or arms and my wife had to call EMTs to get me and take me to the ER.
