Alternative therapies I've had success with, (new here)
The rib lesion continued to live on, in spite of my high-lycopene diet and heat, and my psa got up into the 30's after four years, and I had a fourth hormone therapy just recently (Lupron with
Xtandi
).

When do Xtandi side effects show up?
I started
Xtandi
about 10 days ago. So far so good. I am not noticing any significant side effects as of yet... maybe a little more tired in the afternoons, maybe a slightly different pattern to my hot flashes (still on Lupron.)

I realize its hopefully a marathon but when should you sprint.
Several weeks ago after zytiga failed some months back it appears that
xtandi
is the next to fail. My PSA is increasing, from 0.08 to 0.4 and now, three weeks later who knows, my next m.o appt is April 17th, labs and lupron and zometa, at the same time.

Take a break?
Solid
Xtandi
and Lupron for over three years now. Undetectable PSA and clean scans every three months. I think they call it progression free survival. However, I feel like shit.

Borders and Chemotherapy
Been on Erleada, Zolodex,
Xtandi
, Casodex, and Zytiga recently. All failed eventually. Doctor said Docetaxal is all that is left in the bag. I started last week. Now the problem. My wife is Canadian, I am a USA citizen. We had planned to move to Canada soon.

Comparing the Clinical Efficacy and Safety of Abiraterone and Enzalutamide in Metastatic CRPC.
New meta-analysis below [1], comparing Abiraterone [Zytiga] and Enzalutamide [
Xtandi

Xtandi and significant back pain
Hello, Looking for feedback from others who have experienced increased back pain while taking
Xtandi
. My dad recently finished BAT at Hopkins and Dr Antonarakis recommended trying
Xtandi
again which did not work very long the first time he was on it.

Docetaxel forever?
Chemo Doc says stop
Xtandi
- its not working - (note it was on the Rx list I provided during intake.) My memory is many on this site have continued with the oral along with infusion chemo - correct? He also said that I would be on Docetaxel for years, not months.

In these uncertain times I know, I am not the lone ranger. But ?
I have been on
xtandi
for several months, PSA is creeping up from 0.08 to 0.4 as of 3 weeks ago. Zytiga previously failed after 16 mos, rad prostectomy 2016 and radiation 37 sessions. Currently on zometa infusions every 3 months and lupron on same day. Next round April 13th.

Who has been on Xofigo? What were side effects and outcome?
I'm currently taking
Xtandi
and I've had an Orchiectomy so no other drugs. When my PSA reached 123 I went on
Xtandi
which knocked it down to 6 but then 3 mos later it was 12 then 22 and now is 25. I should also mention I'm BRCA2.

Poems and Prayers and Promises. Radiation to two lymph nodes in abdomen and to a bone met on left Pelvic bone.... 18 session done out of 25.
A bit MORE fatigue and weakness than with just Lupron and Xgeva and
Xtandi
~~BUT, luckily NO BLOOD in my urine yet or any major G.I. issues(but I really have to watch eating any fiber or fried things).... AND this Coronavirus is making every day going to the hospital another adventure.

Free Xtandi about 80 days of pills
A friend of mine who also has aPC has been taken off of
Xtandi
. His wife wishes to do something positive with the remaining pills. She will send them to someone who is having a difficult time paying for
Xtandi
. I told her I could find some one on Healthunlocked who could use them.

PCa patients can benefit from 5-alpha-reductase Inhibitors.
Hence the continued interest in the AR axis, & the development of Abiraterone [Zytiga] & Enzalutamide [
Xtandi
]. The ultimate targets of AR axis-based therapy are DHT access to the AR, & AR translocation to the nucleus of the cell. It is therefore plausible that a 5ARI might have a useful role.

Xtandi with Xofigo??
There seems to be a discrepancy between oncs they both want me on Xofigo but one says I should continue with
Xtandi
while the other says to stop it because it would compromise bone and he is afraid I could fracture something.
