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 .

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).

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
.

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.

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

Taking a poll for the new guys...
Just before my first injection I finally read a positive post by a dude that stayed active, lifting, running , and just staying positive and he did well....That was my goal..then when it came time to add
Xtandi
I just kept pushing and I am in better shape then most of my peers.

Jevtana and carboplatin combo..where to go after
He has been on casodex, 2 rounds of taxtotere (one when first diagnosed and again in may this year), zytiga,
xtandi
, jevtana and now combo chemo. He wasn’t a candidate for Provenge. I guess I’m looking for what to expect next.

What I learned from today's conference call...
This means combining ADT with androgen receptor signaling inhibitors such as
Xtandi
or Zytiga to try to control metastatic PCa. Which to choose? Depends on tolerance of the most common side effects.

Just came back from Dr. Appt. Erleada failing
So he is recommending
Xtandi
(along with continuing Zoladex). My thought is I just lost 3 years of my life. I looked at Erleada lasting at least the median of 40-48 months, then
Xtandi
for 20 months, then Chemo for 18 months, then I guess hospice.

Indomethacin
My dad is on Lupron and a reduced dose of
Xtandi
, so I’m wondering if we could give it a whirl. Many thanks!

Ac225-minimzing side effects
I only have the cancer left in the prostate as the APCEDEN and
Xtandi
together keep my PSA around 2 from a start of 212 five years ago. I'm hoping that with less of a tumor burden the side effects may not be so bad. And if you did get dry mouth from Ac225 did it go away or get better over time?

Medicare Advantage Plans Any Tips, Insights or Suggestions?
What companies and/or plans may better suite my condition I've had Taxotere, Zytiga and am currently on
Xtandi
. Going forward my Mo suggests Cabzataxel/Carboplatin, Xofigo, palliative radiation treatments etc, etc. I am currently on SSDI due to progressed nature of my PCa.

metastatic lesions
Next we tried
Xtandi
. All I can say is "brain fog". She now wants to start Zytiga with prednisone. Last week the results of a body scan showed metastatic lesions on 4 of my ribs. I am also scheduled for a hip replacement in 24 hours.

New PSMA ligand treatment with less side effects than Ac225?
Also, a short Zytiga stint, and 18 months or so of
Xtandi
, and Xgeva. Started in August 2014 with PSA of 212, Gleason 9 so it's an aggressive SOB'ing strain. Was showing up in my spine, cheekbone, and sacrum in March, 2017.

Metastatic prostate cancer
They have included syberknife, xytegia,
xtandi
,taxotere,xofigo,and now cabazitnxel(jevtana) with carboplatin. I don’t know if there is anything else that can be done. Is there any one else out there in the same situation and if so what are you doing?
