Intermittent Xtandi
Does anyone know the effects of skipping a week here and there of
Xtandi
? Know someone doing this and not informing their oncologist. I wonder how dangerous this is...

Xtandi side effects
Started
Xtandi
in February and for the first 6 weeks felt no effects that I noticed. Now though, I feel fatigued and lethargic all the time. I know that this is presumably a side effect from the
Xtandi
, but curious if others had a delayed fatigue reaction to it.

XTANDI & RADIATION FATIGUE
The
Xtandi
has given me a lot of fatigue, along with other side effects, and insomnia, and now with the added effects of the radiation, I seldom have to take Ambien to get to sleep now.

Xtandi failure
PSA went from 30 to 32 over 12 weeks since starting
Xtandi
, post docetaxel and concurrent Provenge. Looking for guidance on discontinuing
Xtandi
and moving on to Xofigo, give it more time or some other treatment. Was castrate resistant 8 months post diagnosis and while on docetaxel and lupron.

At a Dangerous Crossroads
Have un through most of the usual treatments (lupron, doxetaxel, zytida, xofigo and
xtandi
. In surprising good health, for now. It won't last, so I want to try and get ahead of this with any ideas this brain trust comes up with. Also very willing to share my knowledge and PC.

Testing for AR-V7 Gene Variant
Is testing for the AR-V7 gene variant standard practice before treating with Antiandrogens such as
Xtandi
and / or Zytiga? The logic being that if you test positive, these drugs are a waste of time.

5TH RADIATION, PSA UP SLIGHTLY
But more seriously, I'm hoping to try Zytiga, but my medonc wants to wait until
Xtandi
has completely lost its efficacy.

Bob's Journey
Twelve years later I've had nearly all the available treatments - ADT, Leukine, Thalidomide, Curcumin, Provenge, Zytiga,
Xtandi
, Taxotere chemo, Xofigo and more chemo. I'm still here though very much weakened by the T deprivation. My QoL is pretty good, thanks to my wonderful wife.

Xtandi, Xgeva, and Dental
I started
Xtandi
in the fall of 2014, and the PSA went down to 14 for a few months.

My journey so far
Moved on the
Xtandi
which worked awhile, but progression resumed in May 2015, so we moved on to docetaxel. Only side effect was low white blood cell count during first cycle. That was resolved by addition of Neulasta. After 10 cycles took a break for over 3 months (probably too long).
