Need some advice on what tools are still in the toolbox
My MO was looking to start me on
Xofigo
, but it was denied by the insurance, so I’m wondering what tools might be left in the toolbox. I was also denied for Talzenna and Lynparza. I have an appt with on June 15th and I want to do my research and be prepared to discuss other possible options.

Post Xofigo, where do we go from here?
I've put off the decision for a month to see if things return to "normal" following the
Xofigo
. I understand his concerns but it seems like he is ignoring any positive action that the
Xofigo
has done. I don't want to give up on the Xtandi too soon. Any feedback is appreciated.

Waiting time for Xofigo after failed Lu177 PNT2002 ?
The MO answering my question about
Xofigo
before Chemo, replied that I would need 6 months wait after the last shot of Lu177. So far all mets are at the bones. 6 months even after only 2 shots of Lu?

Thoughts on vacation and PSA
Planning to ask both about the "vacation", what to do if/when PSA rises further, and what's new for consideration (BAT,
Xofigo
, etc) presuming the fight is still far from over. I know time and more tests will tell, but as always I welcome any input. Thanks all.

Dad with Stage 4 PCa - Need some words of wisdom...again please!
In the meantime, no radiotherapy, in case he is BRCA2 (needing to presrve bone marrow quality for Olaparib) In the meantime, they are exploring Radium 223 (
Xofigo
) as an option, but will only know after a full spine MRI. Feels/sounds like we are running out of options.

Next treatment options available for advancing disease
Radium - 223,
Xofigo
. This is my preferred treatment option at the moment. The disease has only spread to my bones so far and this treatment works in damaging tumor cells in the bones. Also this treatment has the least side effects. I would like to continue working while having this treatment. 3.

Xofigo
I'm pushing for preemptive
Xofigo
and getting some pushback from MO and RO. Should I keep on pushing to get ahead of the whack a mole external radiation?

Xofigo experience and thoughts requested
My husband, age 68, has been approved for
Xofigo
. He has 7 detectable bone metastasis, but had not experienced pain as yet. Gleason 9, PSA is 17 and trending upward, after 8 years on Lupron post PR and one year on Xtandi.

Failed Docetaxel, just like everything else.
Since becoming mCRPC, I have failed
Xofigo
, Zytiga, and now Docetaxel, all in the past9 months. Does anyone else have a similar story, and is there any real hope for Pluvicto working any better.

Jevtana (Cabazitaxel) before Xofigo (Radium 223)
Hi I was speaking to an Oncology nurse last week who suggested that after Docetaxel, Oncolgists were inclined to prescribe Jevtana before
Xofigo
. This apparently is because it is less effective the other way round. I have to say my instinct was to try radiotherapy before going back to chemo.

Chemo vs Xofigo
My decision now is this: Chemo or
XOFIGO
(RA 223). Anyone out there that can help me with their experiences with either? Thanks, Frank.

Alk Phosphate going up after third Radium 223
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. Any suggestions feedback is helpful.

Docetaxel/Taxotere. 2nd time in 3 years. It's a no go this time. No benefit after 3 infusions.
(Jevtana,
Xofigo
w/provenge, even Xtandi ? As hopefully the Docetaxel I've just had or if I get Jevtana the chemo's will "resensitize so that Xtandi is viable" after the Zytiga I've ran thru). Meantime a nice Christmas break from the chemo crashes, some recovery before hitting "IT" again.
