Anyone on Apalutamide (Erleata)
Am currently on
Xtandi
but PSA keeps going up (33) but all chemistries are normal? He suggests waiting until we can move to Apa. Anyone have any backpain or leg weakness from
Xtandi
. I did very well on Zytiga for 5 years. Best to all! Eighty years old and 17 years with PCa!!

Xtandi & Neuropathy
IHi everyone, I’ve been on
Xtandi
for 3 months. Prior to this I had 6 rounds of chemo, Taxatere. I began having foot pain, after starting Taxatere. However, the foot pain (left foot only) has gotten worse recently. I take 4 pills before I go to bed and within 2 hours the pain begins.

Update- new treatment plan and a sprinkle of hope
His oncologist at the Cle clinic is putting him into a clinical trial which involves
Xtandi
and another agent (can’t recall the name). He’s tapering off of prednisone and Zytiga and will be starting in a week. He has been feeling pretty good. His back pain is tolerable and his weight is steady.

Anybody try Keytruda for APC
Chemo, Zytiga,
Xtandi
, luprin, Lynparza. All with no benefits. Looking at my last biopsy I will be trying to get in a trial for Keytruda. Has anybody had any experience with this drug for prostate cancer.

My journey wth metastasized PCa
I am starting chemo next week after Zytiga and
Xtandi
failed to lower my PSA. My physical done last year showed a PSA at 3.1 and 7 months later the PSA was at 39.1 and i was diagnosed with met PCa. I looked back at 5 years of PSA readings, and each time the PSA was increasing.

Update on my situation and request opinion
Is
Xtandi
with Lupron a reasonable choice of further treatment.

TURP scheduled tomorrow - concerns
My unfortunate current situation is a climbing PSA over 100 (rising 10% month on month since on
Xtandi
) and what seems like a very limited to response to dual ADT. I have extensive bone mets which showed spreading on recent CT/ MRI (had radiation last week to prevent a T10 sinal cord compression).

My Chemo journey
I am now starting
Xtandi
, I have another check up in 4 weeks. MO said that if
Xtandi
is failing after 3 months then I can go on Lutetium 177 trial, so I have a nervous wait. Keep fighting, Hazard

Now off Xtandi trial. Rechallenging with Taxotere next.
After a recent MRI, my husband was taken off the
Xtandi
trial. Scans showed uptake in spine. MO said PSA is no longer reliable indicator for hubby. We’ve followed the standard of care except for the trial drug. He is now going to rechallenge with Taxotere.

Almost through with Drs for the month. (of course it is the 28th)
PSA Down again on just
Xtandi
lower dose (120 mg from 160 mg.). No new mets. three of 5 old mets dead. Remaining two much less active. VA and Oncologist say I am officially in remission with PSA of 0.118 . Still weak and on Phys. Ther. to get strength back.

What's my next line of defense?
At this point my next line of defense was to start a daily dose of
Xtandi
(Enzalutamide).

Stopping Xtandi perhaps temporarily due to dementia
Xtandi
hasn’t produced great PSA decline anyway but did seem to level PSA at 8. Also hubby has recent orchiectomy and Provenge last year so he does have that going for him.

Climbing psa but low testosterone
If there is disease progression, they’ll move forward with chemo or a clinical trial (randomized
xtandi
vs
xtandi
plus). In the interim they did a blood panel and his psa is up again to 12. His testosterone, however, is remaining at its lowest point. Can anyone tell me how one affects the other?

Xtandi AND Provenge so soon?
**this classified me as Castrate Resistant Advanced Stage 4....NOW I'm starting Provenge AND
Xtandi
. These both sound like BIG GUNS...I'm just wondering if anyone is taking both now? / took both? / took both this early in the journey? How it was? Being in the "fast lane" is a bit scary! --John

Xofigo and Zytiga warning
So my RO recommends
xtandi
and xofigo for bone met recurrence upon scan. See below: http://www.ema.europa.eu/docs/en_GB/document_library/Press_release/2018/03/WC500245412.pdf
