Stopping Zytiga and restarting it
I have been very concerned that they just stopped Zytiga without going straight onto
Xtandi
and am fuming now because of the progression we saw today.

Help with upcoming decisions
once on Lupron, etc, his pain went away until an achiness triggered his scans and change from Zytiga to
Xtandi
then to chemo from Jan through March. each start of medication tends to relieve whatever achiness he is having so we are thinking that achiness is due to the cancer in his bones.

Xtandi while undergoing Docetaxel/Carboplatin chemo
In each of the other 2 rounds, we used
Xtandi
as a rechallenge after 6 cycles of chemo. PCa is in lymph nodes and liver, under control in lymph nodes but not in liver per recent MRI My Med Onc says to stay on
Xtandi
throughout this chemo round. Anyone out there been down this road? Thanks.

Enzalutamide and back pain
I am wondering for those of you who have taken enzalutamide (
xtandi
) and experienced back pain was your pain generalized across the back or in a very specific location?

The News of My Expiration is Greatly Exaggerated
I give all the credit to the Lupron, Chemo, Xgeva,
Xtandi
, etc. and a couple of supplements (maybe). The
Xtandi
run will someday end, but I really think I have a couple of years, at least, after that. Who knows? What is my point? Some doctors are using out of date info to forecast expiration dates.

Xtandi cost
My MO wants to Rx
Xtandi
(Enzalutamide). My part D Medicare supplement says it will cost $2400 the first month, and $600+ every month thereafter. I still work and have an income, but that cost is shocking. I would like to hear about financial assistance others have received in my situation.

Would appreciate Your Thoughts
The plan is when my PSA reaches .2 I will go on
Xtandi
. My question is, in many of the excellent posts on this forum it appears the MO is being very aggressive and customizing treatment to a specific patient . My treatment is more "by the "book".

Best treatments for metastaic prostate cancer? (Non-hormone resistant)
I have seen various studies that show that
xtandi
in combination with docetaxol may work better than either of them alone. My grandfather will be undrgoing docetaxol treatment after many years of lupron and radiation. It now has metastisized to bone in lumbar region.

What to do now?
Oncologist has asked me to consider
Xtandi
. Concerned about side effects. Has anyone tried
Xtandi
? What is best test(s) for Metastasis? Would appreciate any ideas on what to do.

Xtandi Availability at Reasonable Cost
Urologist advised to continue Bicadex, take Caltrate plus, Alendronic Acid and
Xtandi
. Shocked to hear about
Xtandi
cost. I'm a retired detective from a developing country and my pension wouldn't even cover half the
Xtandi
cost.

Xtandi prescribed & PSA Antigen Free test added ? & Eosinophils? Why now ?
On Aug 2/19 I was prescribed
Xtandi
, due to third rise in PSA from 12-18-22.8 . Aug 20/19 next PSA went down to 18. Exactly as the
Xtandi
claims. I have no side effects from this potent drug. My question is this .. when reading the my PSA & blood work I noticed a new addition to the test .

Starting Zytiga questions
My husband ended
Xtandi
as it was no longer holding/lowering his PSA. He is 76 and could only tolerate half dose
Xtandi
. Questions regarding Zytiga. Do others take it at bedtime without food? This would be easiest as it follows the same pattern he had with
Xtandi
.

Antitumor Activity Seen With Keytruda in mCRPC
In the study, 29% of patients had previously undergone two or more chemotherapy regimens, and about 25% were treated with both enzalutamide (
Xtandi
) and abiraterone (Zytiga).

Xtandi (enzalutamide) hacks
I've been on enzalutamide a little over a year now. It does the trick. My PSA has been undetectable until recently - and that's on two pills a day. I started out with four but needed my brain to earn a living (I'm an engineer). I'm a fitness guy. I road bike, mountain bike, or lift weights in the gym

Would anybody know if you could take CABAZITAZEL and still continue taking ZYTIGA, LUPRON and ZOMETA?
In the past, right after my first Chemotherapy treatment, I spent over a year with an undetectable PSA just from Lupron and after that period was over, I was put on drugs like Casodex until I was refractory on that one and then Zytiga and for a moment on
Xtandi
and then right back on Zytiga.
